W e’re clearing clutter and sticking
on price tags. In June,
BHG
will
host a yard sale to help
Share Our
Strength, a nonprofit working to
end childhood hunger. Join us!
Here’s your can’t-miss game plan.
I
Pick the right date. Consider
having your sale near a
common payday (the ist or 15th
of the month). Avoid scheduling
your sale during holiday weekends
or during a widely attended
community event.
2
Shop your house for items
to sell. Walk through every
room
and grab what you no
longer need.
3
Give yourself at least two
weeks before the sale to pull
and clean items. (Nobody wants
to buy dirty things, even when the
price is low.)
