Here are some friendly tips to help you get ready for the big event:
1. Start Early: Declutter Your Space
Now’s the perfect time to tackle that closet or garage that’s been collecting dust. Go through your belongings and set aside items you’re ready to part with. Think about clothes, toys, kitchenware, furniture, and anything else that could use a new home!
2. Organize and Clean
Once you’ve gathered your items, give them a good clean. People are more likely to buy things that look well-kept. Organizing items into categories can also help make your sale more appealing and easier to navigate for shoppers.
3. Price Your Items
Pricing your items can be a bit of a challenge, but it’s essential! Consider the condition of each item and what similar items are selling for online or at other garage sales. Use clear labels for prices, and don’t forget to include discounts for bulk purchases!
4. Create a Welcoming Setup
Presentation matters! Set up your sale in a way that invites people in. Consider using tables to display items, and make sure everything is easily accessible. Wipe down items that have collected dust or need some TLC. A clean, well-organized space will attract more buyers.
5. Get the Word Out
Although the HOA and your friends at My Neighborhood News will be handling advertising, feel free to spread the word among your friends and neighbors. Share the news on social media or in your community groups to attract more visitors to your sale. You can even use the link below to direct your network to the event listing, which includes convenient add-to-calendar buttons!

6. Have Fun with It!
This isn’t just about selling stuff; it’s also about connecting with your neighbors and community. Take the time to chat with shoppers, share stories about your items, and enjoy the lively atmosphere of the event!
7. Be Ready for Bargaining
Many garage sale shoppers love to negotiate! Be prepared for haggling, and decide ahead of time how flexible you want to be with your prices.
