A lucrative way to spring cleaning is having a garage or yard sale. Get rid of unwanted things and earn some cash at the same time...that's double TADA!
Considering putting one together? Here are a few links:
- Insightful tips for a successful yard sale
- The do's and don'ts for making a yard sale sign
- Yard sale pricing tips
Here are some more ideas:
Display items on tables and garment racks.
Make sure there's a collective price tag {ex. all shirts $5.00},
or better yet, put a price tag on each piece.
Group similar things together.
Make use of boxes...
...bins or baskets.
You can use old suitcases or bags, too.
Display jewelry like they would in a
boutique and have some mirrors handy
{including a full length one if there are
a lot of clothes on sale}.
Have old newspaper and scrap paper to wrap breakables.
Have bags in different sizes {opt to reuse paper/plastic
shopping bags} for customer purchases.
If you're feeling extra generous, offer free treats
like drinks and snacks for all who participated.
Good luck and may you all enjoy the weekend!
I have so much stuff I don't want anymore! I really need to have a garage sale! Thanks for all the great tips!
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by Courtney! I understand you completely! Every year, I do some spring cleaning and I question myself, "How did I accumulate all these things?" Happy purging! :)
