I like going to yard sales. I got a george foreman grill for$5. I bought a vacuum cleaner for $10. I have found lots of nice things at yard sales.

I live in an area with a lot of people who are extreme hagglers and I hate fighting with people this way - hence the reason I don't do garage/yard sales as often anymore. Also, when there is a lot of people there is always the anxiety of theft, which means I usually like to have extra family around to keep an eyeful watch.

Just had a yard sale both days this weekend.  We used to do them more but haven't done one in a while.  I don't go to them myself I just have them.

I've never been much of a yard sale person.  I always feel weird going through other peoples things.

It has been a while since I have gone to a yard sale. I think I should start going again next spring so I can add more classic collectable books to my collection and get my kids more toys at a better price. I like helping other people, instead of corporations, out during this economy.

You can find me on Youtube!

I hate hosting yardsales, but I've made some good money doing so.

I haven't hosted a yard sale, but I think it will be fun to do so.
I do enjoy going to yard sales to see what's going on and perhaps find something I like.

I have had a few garage sales but feel they are a lot of work to not get much out of them. I prefer going to garage/yard sales! I get clothes for my grandkids, decorative items and tools or fishing things for my hubby.

I don't like either, really, but probably going to help my mom have one soon.  It's always nice to have that extra cash after you have one, though.

I like going to yard sales more than I like hosting one. I really like finding nice things in other places.
