Have you ever had a yard sale?

Our neighborhood has an annual one and I have done many myself. I've found that dividing the items up while sorting into boxes labeled with the price helps me stay organized. I'll have my $1, $5, $10 boxes and as I am rooting through the house and garage I put the items I want to sell in the corresponding box. I also set up my items to sell by tables according to those same price points. Any large items, like appliances, furniture, electronics, etc. I individually price. A helpful guide for pricing is to use the donation values at www.salvationarmy.com because I won't sell anything less than the donated value I can get for it (I need the tax deduction more than the money). Use that only as a guide, however. If you have a designer couch that you paid $10,000 for you won't be selling it at the $150-200 value igned by Salvation Army because you can put it on consigment and get more for it (same with designer clothing, purses, shoes and jewelry). I find people buy more of my stuff that is priced or on tables where everything on that table is one price. Another helpful hint to keep you sane, is to use colored sticker dots on the items, a different one for each price point so that when people come up with several items, the dots tell you which price table they got it from.
