I had a garage sale with two neighbors on Thursday and Friday. We had great weather and lots of buyers!! Our total take for all was $798.50. My portion was $270.50!! That is my best garage sale return EVER.
I had so much fun! It is a lot of work, but I enjoy seeing and talking to the people. I love to see what people buy. I like the negotiation. I love it all.
I even joked with my girlfriends that I would love to be paid to set up other people's garage sales. Do you think anyone would pay for that service?
We saved our signs and will consider having another sale in the fall. One neighbor still has a house full of things to sell off. I plan to use ebay and craigslist over the summer to sell a few remaining items.
I will add this to my $20 Challenge.
New Balance: $803.31
Oh, and a before sale picture! I wish I took an after...it is amazing how much we cleared out.
