There's a commercial on the airwaves here right now that says "Some people are addicted to chocolate, others to shoes, but YOU! You're addicted to Garage Sales!" Well what a horrible addiction. I mean, garage sale season is only in the spring and summer months so you have to go all winter without getting your fix?! 
And what's with the "early birds"?  I mean if a sign says "Sale on 9-4" that doesn't mean 8!  But we'll be prepared, oh yes we will, we're starting set up at 7:30am on Saturday so if any "early birds" do show up we are prepared.
It's a work related garage sale (not for the gas bar, sillies, but my other job wherein I am the Social Recreation Coordinator. That's a mouthful isn't it?  ).
I get to set up my driveway, sell my shite, and get paid for it!  PLUS at the end of the day there is a BBQ for all tenants who participated (so the 8 of us out of 109 and our kids).
So I have 2 scooters, a PS2 and games, foozeball table, tv and dvd player, a kitchen "cow" collection, a tent, 2 boxes of movies, knick knacks (paddy whacks  ), for sale. PLUS a raffle for a gift basket or a welcome wreath!
Here's to hoping it does't rain (and funny I am saying this 'cause I wanted to hire some Indigenous People to do a rain dance for me because we need rain BADLY) aand that the sale goes sucessful. Afterall, what is one man's junk is another man's treasure!

You can find some really interesting things at a garage sale. Plus its kinda neat to see the things people have.
Goodluck with your Garage sale ill keep my fingers crossed you dont have any rain!
My aunt bought a basket of "fake" bread for her kitchen.. she thought it was cute.. I laughed and asked who buys fake bread...
Hope you have a sunny day!

I can't believe that you could part with your kitchen 'cow' collection.

I'm LMAO because I just saw another kitchen cow collection for sale on our local Craig'sList
~groan~ I thought I'd beaten my addiction to Garage Sales by becoming a hermit (plus I don't have ROOM for more "stuff"  ) -- and then I discovered Craig'sList.  Owwww.  I need to make an appointment with on of those Addictions Counselors. (Good thing I just sit up all night and send myself listings, otherwise I'd REALLY be up a creek...it's kind of like smoking a doobie -- without inhaling -- oh but that purple haze gets awfully appealing  )
Best of luck with your sale, Cougs. You've got some great offerings!...and even if you don't sell a darn thing, you still get to party. Now THAT'S a great deal!
