How can I have a successful garage sale (tag sale)?
I already have the signs and flyers around the neighborhood and the ads have been placed in the paper and on the web. I need to know about what tends to sell, the best way of placing things on the lawn and driveway, and ideas about pricing and negotiating. I’ll have some good furniture, some clothes, some kitchen stuff, and a saddle and tack. I will be choosing a best answer, so thanks for your time!!
The key to a great garage sale is to have a great attitude, a big smile, plenty of extra change, and some extra help on your big day!
Two or three extra people to answer questions and watch the merchandise really helps. It can get really crazy; be aware that there may be thieves in the crowd and a few extra “eyes” really helps. Have a helper stand at the end of your driveway, garage, etc. to keep an eye on who goes in and what they carry out.
If your furniture will be shown in your house, you’ll need someone to escort customers into your home and make sure they exit, as well. You’d be wise to lock all but one entrance to your house. Be sure to close/lock all interior rooms that won’t be used. If possible the best way to sell your furniture is to place it in your garage/driveway – OUTof your house.
If you have gone to all the work to organize a sale, advertise it, and have customers show up, remember that you want to get RID of your stuff – not have to carry it back into your house. Keep in mind that “garage salers” pay garage sale prices – not a price near what you originally paid for an item and you’ll be happier with the results of your sale! Price your items so you won’t have to deal with it when the day is done. People like to get a “deal” so be open to a little haggling. It’s part of the fun!
Display your kitchen items on a table and your clothes can be spread out on a blanket on the lawn, hung up on a line between trees, etc. Keep any electronics/ jewelry/valuables on the table where you’ll be. Make sure you have a secure place to keep your money – a cash box, fanny pack, etc.
Keep a stack of old newspapers nearby to wrap “breakables” in and a stash of grocery bags is helpful, too. A long extension cord and a working outlet is helpful for customers to test electronic items.
A little soft background music (soft jazz, etc) also lends a festive and relaxing atmosphere to your sale.
No matter what, be friendly and enjoy your day!
Have a super sale!
