Garage sale secrets to have success
Hold a theme - moving sale or outdoor gear sale
Schedule it right - make sure you are not one of 100 in town unless you are attending a town wide sale .
Team up- with others or town wide sales
Advertise- FB, Craigslist , EBAY classifieds, garage sale hunter , and classic newspaper
Be prepared- put stuff out that people might want or need .
Organize it - make it look like a store , price accordingly
Get comfortable - get a chair , be friendly to people
Be safe- don't let people in your home for either to use the bathroom or anything else . And lock up your money in a box or have someone attending it .
