Yard Sale Advice...
Anyone have any advice regarding yard sales?
We're having our first on Saturday, and I was wondering if anyone has any tips that they've learned from experience?
Re: Yard Sale Advice...
We are having one on saturday too. We always make some coffee, most people love it so they look around a little more and that makes them buy more. Sometimes we have cookies or something light to snack on. Most people will buy this stuff if you put a price on them.
Make sure if you put up signs that they are in a well spotted place. Place an ad in your local newspaper. They are pretty cheap and hard core yard sale goers map out routes.
I would make sure to have quarters, nickles, dimes, and ones on hand. People pay with weird demonations sometimes. Keep paper and pen handly if it is a mulit-family yard sale, so you can keep track of whose stuff was bought.
You may want to go see if a local grocery store or wal-mart (somewhere like that) will donate the plastic gocery bags so that if someone buys a lot you have a bag. Thats all I can think right now! Good Luck! Let's hope our sales are a huge success!
Make sure stuff is organized. I think clothes sell better if they are hung up. Be realistic on prices. I am bad to want to overprice my stuff when I start thinking about how much I paid for it. Most yard sale goers aren't going to pay much.
Location is important too. If you live far out, you might want to consider moving it to a freinds house or business on a main street.
Good Luck. I love yard sales!!!
