This review is from: The Great Garage Sale Book: How to Run a Garage, Tag, Attic, Barn, or Yard Sale (Paperback)
The very short and easy-to-read book had numerous suggestions for making your yard sale stand out from the crowd. It addresses advertising, types of items to sell and how to market and display them, pricing, sales day, and provides a countdown of things to do before the sale to reduce your stress load.
I would have marked it higher, except it dealt with topics irrelevant to yard sales in this area, like how to market antiques(hah!) and multi-day sales. I would have liked more specifics on how to price different types of items.

This review is from: The Great Garage Sale Book: How to Run a Garage, Tag, Attic, Barn, or Yard Sale (Paperback)
This book does what you need it do, although it is a little out of date. I like to be organized. Quickly reading through this book helped me to keep key things in mind while planning my yard sale.
