In this scenario, however, there’s no guarantee that your garage sale will make you good money. Thankfully, I know a way to achieve both ends: declutter your home and make money at your next garage sale. What Is a Garage Sale? You may have also heard it referred to as a yard sale.

Will it be a crafts camp with several different projects, a cooking camp – with the grand-kids planning, shopping, chopping and cooking a meal (with your supervision and suggestions of course), a music camp – with each of you playing your instrument or all of you learning new songs together? Hold a garage sale together.

Buy dried milk to use in cooking – especially if you aren’t a regular milk drinker. There have been countless times I have seen nearly new, decorator pieces being sold for pennies on the dollar at garage sales because the homeowner decided to re-decorate. Store food properly to make it last as long as possible.

At garage sales, are you attracted to those still usable but slightly defective items that no one else wants? Do you even remember when most people cooked their own meals instead of going out to eat?

Learning how to cook well has saved us a significant amount of money, and made us healthier. Over the years I’ve become a good home cook. I used to garage sale quite a bit for my kids’ toddler and preschool clothes but as they’ve gotten bigger and pickier I have better luck finding what they’ll wear in their size at the thrift store.

C with Finn, my parents’ dog Our daughter is 12, and very into the arts and science. I learned how to cook and bake at a very young age, and I’ve always enjoyed kitchen work as both creative pursuit and scientific inquiry. She’s still exploring herself and the world to figure out her path! K in her dance costume 2.

Now-I’m a single parent who works part-time, cares for my elder mother, homeschools & runs a farm. When college was looming, my parents offered to let me live at home cost-free while I was in college, as their contribution to my higher education. There’s always been garage sales/flea markets, library, state parks, fishing.
