Yard Sales

Did you have a yard sale this summer? A yard sale is away of selling everything you should take to the dump. In fact, a dump would be a great place to have a yard sale. Perhaps you should tell your town council.

Men do not like going to yard sales. They like to sit in the car and blow the horn. Most men would rather take a broody hen for a walk than go to a yard sale. I know, because I am one of them.

If you have a yard sale, you should dress up for it in your best clothes. If you do not, people will think you are poor. Then they will not buy your stuff. Even poor people will not buy form other poor people. I know, because I am one of them.

The best way to sell stuff at a yard sale is to close down for lunch. Many people will come to your lawn when you are in the house getting something to eat. Another way is to mark down the price of each thing at twice what it is worth. Then you can take off half the cost and not lose anything. Also, people will feel they are getting a real bargain. Some people fall for this all the time.

I know. Because I am one of them.
