| We did really well. My first customer must have been a seasoned garage saler. She spent all of 50c, but did comment that I it was one of the best organised sales that she had seen. I had books 20c each or 6 for $1.00 (a tip I got from your website) and that di

| Advertised in local papers as well but unfortunately they advertised in wrong (another area) paper therefore did not have a huge success. Sold less than a quarter of the goods as not many bargain hunters. Very disappointed and will try again next weekend.

| Had a good day, although way too many annoying people here before time. Couldn't even bring the stuff out, without them rifling through bags. However, we were well organized, with everything priced. Nearly everyone bartered for a better price, which we accommo
