Do you yard sale? Well if you don’t you should start. My town is having a town wide sale and I have to say I have found some great things while I was broseing around. There were some nice tables, chairs and even a sofa. Now, you do have to watch out for scams and so on as some people mark things up too much and say they are something they are not. Most of the time though you are okay.

The top 5 things you want to look for at a yard sale that will increase in value.

1. Antique or close to antique items
2. Collectible items. If they are selling them at a reasonable price.
3. Towels, you can always use them
4. Wooden furniture that is made well
5. Drinking glasses, we all use them and most of the time they can be sold again and again. I personally own a set that is 50 years old, but looks new.

What items do you look for at a yard sale?

I would appreciate your thoughts on this post, why not comment?
