Make The Most Of Your Efforts With This Guide
As the weather warms up and you are (ideally) finishing up your spring cleaning, you are likely feeling ready to air out your home. One of the best ways to make it feel breezy and beautiful for the summer is by clearing out unwanted clutter. You can double the benefit from this effort by selling these items at a garage sale because, after all, one man’s trash is another man’s treasure! When you do, use these garage sale tips.
• Focus On Your Goal: Are you holding your yard sale to earn cash? Or simply to get rid of your junk? If your goal is to clear out every unwanted item, consider pricing them extremely low so that buyers will be more inclined to head home with them.
• Plan Wisely: If you choose a weekend with crummy weather or one already filled with holiday events, your sale will have a hard time seeing success. Take a look at the forecast and calendar when choosing your sale date.
• Spread The Word: Your garage sale will not do very well if not buyers show up. To get people to your sale, post about it on Craigslist, hang flyers on community boards, email your network, and make sure you post large, easily visible signs on the day-of.
• Have Cash: It may seem like a no-brainer, but it would be a real shame to be unable to make proper change and consequently loose the sale. Consider a hip purse or fanny pack to keep your cash easily accessible so closing a sale will be a snap!
