Yardsale Newbie

I am having my first ever yard sale tomorrow and have no clue how it will turn out. I've followed many tips I have found here (thanks guys!)and my MIL who is the yard sale queen , is coming to help me price and set up. She'll also be in charge of the $$.
If you're not too busy, please send a little pixie dust my way. Hoping to add to the Disney funds!

TIA

:thewave: Sending pixie dust your way . I too am getting stuff together for a yard sale for our Disney trip. It is such a big task! I am looking at having mine in a couple of weeks. I usually do a yard sale each year and have pretty good results. I pray you have good weather and many customers!!

We just had a yard sale today. We spent all day yesturday cleaning out our garage. Sorting and pricing things and cleaning everything. We had so much stuff!!! We desided on a whim to have a garage sale today(we were going to just have one next weekend)but figured what the heck! We just put a sign in front of our house and we made $130!!!! The real sale will be on Sat. and we'll put an add in the paper. Everyone complimented us on our stuff, how clean and organized everything was! I had a lot of kids shoes that were in great condition. I cleaned them, put them in ziplock bags and labled them with their sizes. It was a big hit!
The money is going towards or WDW/Vero beach trip in 2 weeks!

Sharing the pixie dust with you. Good luck for your 'real' sale.

I had a garage sale last weekend. I didn't have a whole lot of stuff but enough to hold a garage sale. Spent the day before pricing, getting things ready and making eye catching signs. The day of our garage sale was going pretty good until that afternoon everything died. After a couple of hours I decided to pack it up. When I went to collect our signs, they were all taken! Someone had actually stolen our signs!!!! Can you imagine?
