Never Again!

[Marilyn]

I've only had two garage sales, ever, but we did really well around here. It seems that a lot of people around here shop the garage sales and they must need a lot of the things we are trying to sell. Most any furniture or household item will sell. Books and toys did not do well, but much of the things did. We even sold a trailer and a piano in garage sales. The only problem we really have to watch out for is shoplifters. We had several items stollen at our first sale. So many people come at once it's hard to keep an eye on them. The second sale, we had more help, our daughters were older, and we watched people better and if they looked like they were trying to leave without paying, we'd approach them and see if they were ready to check out.

It's an interesting experience.
