We have items in our garage we want to sell - which day is better, Saturday or Sunday to have a garage sale?

San Jose Mommy asked:


I am thinking about having a garage sale. I have never done it before. I know that posting it up on craigslist and having signs around the neighborhood are good, but do you have any other tips for me? We will be selling mostly baby / toddler clothes and a few house hold items.

How much have you made from a garage sale before? Maybe I should try to get the whole block to sell stuff? Ever done that?

Jen asked:


I'm having a garage sale this weekend. I"m not new to garage sales... I've had many over the years, and I always play music in the background. I generally go with either country or "adult contemporary" stations on the radio. But I'm curious about the affects of different music styles on shoppers. Has anybody tried anything different at your sales, and what's your experience? I'm thinking of maybe playing some salsa or reggae music for fun. What do you think?

I'm planning on having my garage sale on November 21-25 at 9AM-6PM. Do you think a lot of people would come between those dates? They're off work usually. Do you think they'll come on Thanksgiving? Any tips to improve my sales?
