House & Home From Diane Schmidt, your About House & Home Editor I'm a huge fan of garage sales, both as a seller and a buyer. As a buyer it's the challenge of the hunt, searching for that unique piece that you'll never find on the store shelves. As a seller, the attraction is in trying to get rid of that item that's been taking up precious space in the basement, leftover from the days when you thought that a neon pink lamp shade would look so cool in your dorm room. Guerrilla Garage Sale Shopping I like this idea that 'scoring at a garage sale is like a mission'. And like a mission, you need to have a strategy to spot the deal, make the deal and then seal the deal. Go forth and conquer with these guerrilla garage sale shopping tips. How to Organize a Garage Sale Selling the stuff that you no longer want or need is a skill onto itself. It takes time to prepare, market and sell your wares. So, if you're tired of all that stuff that's taken over your spare room, find out how to successfully sell it to someone else. Garage Sale Shopping for Antiques If you're like me and you enjoy the hunt, then this is the article you need for inspiration, information and illumination on how to find a valuable antique among all the yard sale treasures. How to Design a New Garage Okay, so you want to host a garage sale but don't have a garage? Build one. Even though it's not really the key ingredient in a successful garage sale, adding a garage to your existing home does add value that extends beyond the need to get rid of clutter.
