Garage sales: 5 Tips to Have Success

Well…the big garage sale is this weekend…and I have a TON of stuff to do. I might actually NOT post an update until Sunday or Monday because if I am as tired after this one as I was last weekend, I will not feel up to it.
I am getting the guilties from not doing much housework. Is that even possible? I cannot believe that came out of my fingers, but in the honor of transparency, I am telling the truth here. I just didn’t feel like it last weekend after spending the day haggling over stuff that had more emotional power over me than I want to admit.
Hoping my son makes it up here to help me. He is a forceful individual and he will yank stuff out of my clenching hands and thrust it into a buyer’s hands in a minute. Although toward the end of the sale day last Saturday, I was giving stuff away. You just cannot bear the thought of lugging it back to the staging area.
I know after this one I will be donating a lot of stuff. Hello, Goodwill!
Here are a few images from last weekend.
5 Things to Do to Host a Garage Sale
(I wish I had done this myself~!)
I hope this helps if you are going to host one of these sales this spring/summer. I am getting excited about it – the sale last week paid for my groceries and gas this week. I hope to do that again and more.
Leave me a comment if you have more things to add to the list. I may not have thought of something and others might want to know. Heck, I want to know!
