Garage Sale Survival Tip # 38

Partner With Other People to Diversify Your Inventory. No matter how convinced you are that the bounty of treasures crammed in your closets will add up to garage sale gold, pooling your resources with others is your best strategy for keeping the crowd from becoming surly and demanding access to the rest of the house.

And trust me: The last thing you want to happen is to be sitting in front of a card table an hour into the sale with nothing left except a napkin holder, an autographed picture of Wynona Judd and a jasmine-scented gel candle. That's a tough gig.

  1. Now if the candle were apple-cinammon spice, you'd have me to contend with, but as it stands, I'm not a fan of jasmine ;-)

  2. As the saying goes "The Early bird gets the apple-cinammon spice candle." It's a hot item and gone by 7 - 7:30.
