Yard Sale question

We are having our very first yard sale on sat and I am so excited! Can't wait to get rid of stuff and hopefully make some Chat Icon . My question is, do I put price tags on everything or do I just tell people the price if they ask? TIAChat Icon

Re: Yard Sale question

You will hear from many that they appreciate stickers on items and hate it when they aren't priced.

However, if you don't feel like doing it, you don't have to.....but then at least have a sign that states the prices of things in front of a table.

Good luck!!

Re: Yard Sale question

My dad is the king of yard sales.

Always put prices on the items. Ask a little higher than what you want because people will ALWAYS try to get the stuff for cheap.

Good luck! It's a great way to make dough and some more room!

Re: Yard Sale question

Definitely do price stickers. I would also do a bin of $1 items too if you haven't already thought of that.

Thanks everyone. I have no idea how to price these things. I don't know if I'm going too high or too low. This should be an experience Chat Icon

Re: Yard Sale question

You can also put out tables and label the tables (like the bins) according to price

$5 table

$10 table

$1 bin, etc.
