With
the cost of so many things going up, yard sales might be the only safe places
to shop for real bargains.
This
weekend we visited a few local yard sales for a peek inside this protecting
your pocketbook idea. In Little Rock's
Hillcrest neighborhood yard sales were packing them in.
There
was everything on the table you could imagine, with prices ranging mostly from
a few cents to a few dollars with some higher-priced items here and there.

Some tips for successful yard sales
include:
- separate prices on items for
single family yard sales
- group many items and charge the
same price (have a dollar table; all toys this group 50 cents)
- post a sign the day before a
garage sale stating, "Garage Sale Tomorrow"
- make your yard sale signs
noticeable! BIG and bright with big letters and big arrows.
