I knew people would be coming over that have never seen the house so I wanted to pick it up a little. Did that and found more stuff to sell. Opened up, had a few people stop by and walk through but no buyers. We would start off telling people what the garage sale was for and that all prices were negotiable. Big mistake. I had two people that kept asking $2 over and over for a brand new pair of jeans marked at $5 (so new they had the tags on still). I had new shoes that had never been worn marked for $2 that they wanted to give me $1. Please, I need money but not that bad. Of course later, someone else came by that was willing to pay $2 for a pair of shoes instead of haggling with me. We made a lot more money when we stopped saying the prices were negotiable. Some people still asked for a deal but it was like, marked price is $5 I'll give you $4-deal. More people turned out than I expected. It was so cold and windy I didn't think anyone was going to come out. Tomorrow is supposed to be nicer so hopefully more people will stop out. Here are few photos from setup and today.
