Garage Sale Rules of Thumb

[plummer925]

I was at a yard sale last summer and the house I was at had a ton of new in box toys. A lady that was shopping next to me had an armful of them and was saying how great the prices were and that she was getting them for a steal. I knew from being at Target a few weeks before the sale that the people had bought a ton of the Target clearance and were now selling it for $3-5 more. Not that great of a deal.

But if it was only a few dollars above clearance, and the lady didn't have to deal with Target, it very well could have been a great deal for her!!
