I love them I can't wait till they start up again.. Are they popular where you live?
I live in centeral Illinois and they are super popular...I cant wait to get garage sellen, lol. I have had a couple myself but, I really perfer to do the shopping and just donate to good will or where ever to get rid of my stuff, unless it is something major and then I sell it on ebay...
They are HUGE here. I usaually have at least one. With family but they are alot of work (and I usually get all the work)AARRGGGHHH. But I love to go to them. Most of them start so early. And I am a night owl so I miss out on alot of great bargains.
I've never had one. Shopped at them, helped others, but never myself. They're so much work! We have a whole room overtaken by things I had planned to sell, and will probably just end up donating them instead. Why? I hate making all those stickers! Perhaps if someone has some easy ideas on how to do it, it would be worth it, but 8 bags of clothes and more still to add to it, and it's too much!
Some sales I have seen. Have all clothes a Quarter each. Or a bag of clothes for $5.00. Or along those lines. And you can have a rack of exceptions. Like Fromal dresses and such. And as fo kninck knacks. You can group them as well. So just a few ideas for you.
We do one every summer to benefit the animal shelter. We don't tag anything. We say, just put in the box what you want. People are so generous. We usually make 5-600 in one weekend.
For those who don't want to do a yard sale, all of our stuff is donated by folks who don't want to do their own. Maybe a local group could really use your goodies!!
I dont mind going to yard sell's but I will never again have one I dont know what people are looking for you get really snobby people rumaging through your things like there trash and then offering 2 dollars for something that is a year old and cost you a 100 you have to get up so early and then haul everything back in and then do it agian the next day and you have to pay to advertise often more than you are going to make its just not worth it to me I donate all of our good used things to a womens abuse shelter here in town for women who have lefted abusive marriages with nothing but the clothes on there backs.
