Book Description

June 30, 2000
The popularity of the garage sale has grown dramatically, but for many it turns out to be a lot of work for a few dollars. Some advance planning will give you the confidence that ensures you will also have fun while selling and buying... and avoid the worries about things which could go wrong.

Having a really successful sale is rewarding, both in cash and in being a great way to recycle unwanted items cluttering your house or garage, or to prepare for moving house.

"It is also better for the environment if all the things you don't want are used again rather than taking up space at a tip," says author Sally Rofe.

They can be held anywhere there is space - a verandah, sunroom, a front lawn if the weather looks good. And if it doesn't, the confirmed garage sale buyers will still come if you can rig up a tarpaulin or some beach umbrellas.

This book will will give you... The confidence to run your own sale.
Ideas that will increase your profits.
Helpful hints on how to have the best organized sale ever.
How to have fun selling and buying.
Information on safety aspects for sales.
Hot tips for buying up at garage sales.


Editorial Reviews

About the Author

Sally Rofe is a bargain hunter at heart. She saved lots on toys and equipment for her young family by visiting such sales. She also found that running garage sales of her own, including successful street sales, were a good way of getting cash from unused items.

Sally quickly learned that planning makes all the difference in what cash you have at the end of a day. It is not just a matter of putting out the items and a few signs, and waiting for the buyers to come.

Sally has set down what she has learned, plus the accumulated knowledge of others, in a book that tells you how to run a sale. Her book gives the tricks that are the key to holding a successful sale, and which are equally the key to finding bargains at other people's sales.
