Meg, you are a character! I'll watch anything you are in! You are so cute as Charlie Chaplin. I love the solutions to the bedroom dilemma, I cant wait to see how she finishes it.

Meg, I just came home to Mom's house to help her with a massive garage sale. You are spot on my needs again! Thanks for the great advice. A midwest tip: folks that are regular garage sale shoppers always check the local paper for announcements. These ads are super cheap and super effective.

Can apartment-renters have yard sales, too?
Also, I say get a bunch of friends together at one house, and have a group sale. They are mad fun :)

^^^Exactly what I was wondering about for those of us with no yard/garage!
Except I'm in an area I'm fairly new to and kind of am without friends with houses, too...

I rent and just set up our yard sale on the sidewalk in front of our apartment complex. So, really, you don't need a yard at all. Just a few feet of sidewalk action and you're golden!

Oh, so I just need to check with management about it! Awesome!
Thanks for the info! ;)

I can add one thing to your list - make sure you don't have it during a heat wave. No traffic = No sales, trust me, I know =(

SO TRUE. We were pretty close to passing out by 5pm. We were pretty crashed out that night.
Hydrate and stay in the shade!

Great show Charlie! Course at the end of the day, I have to wonder how much of your old clothes did you want to keep because you realized a second use?

Hi- it's Peach!! loved the show!!! Post It's really can be your best friend!!! xoxo Yard sales are the bomb!!! I buy lots of things from yard sales for the fabric - like buying a coat and using the fabric for pillow. Great tip! Can't wait to see what's next week.

I LOVED your suggestions on the yard sale! I'd like to know where I should look for the clothes hanging racks? I'm going to have a yard sale and have some clothes that need hanging. Or is there another way to display clothes at a yard sale without hanging them? Please help!

Thanks! ~Lori , in Florida
