Book Description

February 1, 2001
Your Hidden Money! shows you, in text, pictures and worksheets, how to put on a sale effectively. This is a special-edition digest on how to prepare for, organize and promote your own profitable yard sale, garage sale, estate sale, or block sale--with important tips to help you make a fistful of money.

Whether it's a dusty crate of car parts, box of out-grown children's toys or clothing, no-longer-needed tools, or just a conglomeration of things you no longer want, there is a gold mine of goods stashed in your attic or garage, and virtually all of the items that were destined for the trash could have value in a sale.

Your Hidden Money! guides you step by step through the process of planning, preparing for, advertising, setting a budget, pricing, setting out signs, and otherwise putting your best foot forward at the least expense to accomplish a successful sale.

Write in it, roll it up in your hip pocket, put it in your purse--this compact handbook should be at your fingertips from start to finish.


Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

Author Dick Wells has spent years frequenting all types of sales, and holding many himself. Your Hidden Money! came about after having been asked by numerous friends for tips on how to hold their own yard sales--what to do and what not to do, when and how.

For Dick, going to yard sales is a form of stress reduction. For you, his experiences offer the opportunity to greater success through the tips in this concise manual. Now, Dick is preparing to host a forthcoming television show and write another book, while you prepare to find Your Hidden Money!

This book is 9 x 6-1/2, with 4-color covers, 9 full-color photographs and 19 black and white photos.

From the Author

I enjoy yard sales, whether going to them or holding them. When the car doesn't fit in the garage, it's time to hold a sale! When there's no room in the closet, it's time to hold a sale. Sometimes I go to a sale looking for something specific, sometimes to browse and find something unexpected. Yard sales are environmentally responsible (after all, they recycle material), and with a little planning, good for your wallet. I hope this book will help each of you find your own "hidden money."

This review is from: Your Hidden Money!: How to Have Your own Profitable Yard, Garage, Block or Estate Sale (Paperback)
This skinny-minny little booklet isn't worth it at all. Plus the author is very condescending in that he tries to make you feel like if you don't do everything exactly right (i.e. his way), your garage sale will be a dismal failure. I don't agree with that attitude, firstly, and secondly, he tells you almost nothing that you couldn't have either figured out on your own or found on the internet for the price of the internet connection you already have!

Summary: Google for garage sale websites for advice - don't waste your money.

5.0 out of 5 stars Information-packed!, February 25, 2002
This review is from: Your Hidden Money!: How to Have Your own Profitable Yard, Garage, Block or Estate Sale (Paperback)
The author presents a concise, information-packed
book on effectively conducting your own garage sale.
From start to finish, he provides valuable tidbits of
enlightenment in areas I haven't seen covered in other
garage sale books.

A pleasure to read. You will not find this book itself for
sale at a garage sale - it's a keeper!
