Host a yard sale

“Saturday morning came, and we were ready to get started. It was in the high 40’s (!!!) so we were hustling with tables and items and scurrying around in coats and wearing gloves. (It got to about 70 degrees by noon, so that was a reward, for sure). In addition to being organized (well, duh), I had made signs up for every table to indicate what they were about. I heard great comments about those all day, so I was happy I put in that effort!”

“When it came time to setting up, we staged everything in our garage on tables the night before (which told me I needed to borrow even more tables!) and started pricing objects. This is actually one of the harder parts of a yard sale for me — yes, I’ll sell it, but for how much? How much do i price it for and how much will I haggle down to to let it go? Is there a minimum amount I won’t go below? This part of yard sale prep is a bit more mentally taxing, so I’m glad I’d set time aside to focus on it.”
