Do you thinks I’d get a lot of sales at my garage sale during Thanksgiving weekend?

asked:


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?

    I think most people are visiting friends and family and preparing food on Thanksgiving and I doubt many would come to your garage sale. Even the weekend may be tough if a lot of people are out of town. Can you have it this weekend instead?

    HIGHLY doubtful because most people are indoors spending time with their family. Good luck.

    Any other time that’s not around the holidays would be good! Nov-Jan are the worse months for garage sales. People are already doing their x-mas shopping and getting ready for Thanksgiving feast, they are saving the money for after Thanksgiving sales, then x-mas , new years and then people are left broke and in debt. I tell you for experience. There will be sales soon and people know it!

    Nope— people are either staying home or hitting the stores for the big sales. Try ebay—-
