I didn't get a lot of buyers at my garage sale.

1. Did you sell many grojes?

[LuckyCharms]

3. I ended up giving them away for free...

because I didn't know what the hell they were or how much to charge for them. So when someone held one up and asked how much, I just said "go ahead, take it".

12. Everyone went to the yarb sale instead.

[LuckyCharms]

6. That's my flower garden.

[True Dough]

8. I had a lawn sale one time when I was moving. Got a permit.

Anyhow a few different neighbours jumped in the fun and we had lots of customers who pulled their cars over and came by. I gave a few hundred dollars I made that day to a charity I was involved with. Fun day. What got me was a woman who with her mother tried to steal some clothes. Who goes out grifting with their mom on a sunny Saturday? Had a young adult with developmental disabilities look at my costume jewelry. I promised her it was all fake and gave it all to her for next to nothing. I should do one next summer come to think of it. To get rid of books. And dvds. Anyone ever tried to get rid of things like books and dvds? I don't want money. If they are free can i depend on them all going over the course of a day? My street has about 20 people walking by in an hour. Cars are usually parked on the street so drives bys will never see a lawn sale. I don't want to monitor. Would it be better to give my dvds to the public library? Do young adult apartment dwellers even have DVD players anymore?

10. I have 2 free libraries close to my house & have been dropping a half dozen books off at them weekly

My library has a bin for media to resell also.

11. I'll call the library about the dvds. I suppose I could put the books out in a box all

summer long with a sign that says 'free to a good home'. Thanks.

16. Most libraries have a "Friends of the Librar that sells books & stuff

If the library does not want to add donated items to their collection, the friends of the library have shops or shelves where they can be sold and the proceeds go to the library funds.

Here, only the main library has an actual shop. The branch libraries have shelves of books for sale and it's sort of an honor system to pay at the desk. My sister is very involved in the Friends of the Library in her town and they make thousands a year that goes to the local library.

So donate the books and DVDs to your local library, but don't be offended if they don't end up in the collection. Just know that they will benefit the library one way or another.

17. That sounds good. To the library the dvds will go. The books are too heavy

for me to lug there. Thanks.

[csziggy]

18. Maybe someone from the library would pick up the stuff?

Here, the Goodwill stores have a couple of bookstores and I know that they will pick up things. I'm not sure about their rules. My husband hauls off all our unwanted stuff to whichever charity he thinks can best use it.

[applegrove]

19. I will get rid of all the dvds first. Maybe I will have room for books then.

[eppur_se_muova]

14. That's a Git-Rid-Of-Junk sale ... not necessarily exactly the same thing, but close. nt

[red dog 1]

15. I wunder why?

20. If you're going to have a garage sale.

You have to sell a garage. Anything else is fraud.
