6am was the planned start. I have people coming by and knocking on my door at 4 am. Do these people not have better things to do?

I called goodwill. They showed up at a scheduled time and loaded up the stuff I didn’t want anymore. They even offered a tax receipt. I recommend.

I'll never do one again. We had ours set for a Saturday, but started setting up Friday afternoon and frickers still managed to come up the driveway and out of NOWHERE and start buying stuff then.

There are people who you will never see again in your life who will be at your yard sale.

You guys are having a yard sale to make a little money and are upset that people are enthusiastic to shop your throw away stuff?

I had one garage sale and will never do it again. It was nice making $400 or so when I was younger and needed the money.

If you ever want to meet some strange and stupid people, having a sale is a way to make that happen no doubt

yeah going in i thought it was a waste, and it was

you're better off selling the handful of somewhat valuable things on FB marketplace and donating the rest and taking the donation value and hope you can use it on your taxes

The idea of selling shite I don't want anymore and pricing it to practically give it away. Only for some mouth breather to try to talk you down from 25 cents on an item, is a version of Hell I don't want to experience again. Just put your shite on the side of the road and let the great unwashed haul your shite away.
