I was able to get a sterling silver tea set for $25 at a yard sale! Designer bags for a few bucks each. Lots of kids plastic toys (never stuffed) for my babies for just pennies. Wrought iron candle stick holders for $3.00 each.

I'm with you, Panaxanax. Yard sales ROCK.

“Yard sales ROCK.”

Here’s a tip that I can share with you. I have home-made business cards that indicate what I like to buy. Leave them with the seller at every sale, no matter how crappy it was. also take a handful of dog cookies for their dog that comes out to greet you. They love that! Quite often I will get a call a couple weeks later when they find something that they think I would like to buy (guns.gold,silver, hunting knives, old pocket watches etc.

It works, try it and you’ll be amazed at the response.

Stay out of my stomping ground! Just kidding, of course. There is a negative stigma about people that go to yard sales. We’ll have the last laugh, guaranteed!

Have fun!
