and amateurs and
browsers. The best day to
begin is Friday and run
through Saturday. At the end of.
each day, reconsider pricing and
make adjustments where needed.

Go through your home:,,attic, basement,
garage... and jot down items as you go. Small
items can be displayed in baskets and
buckets. Consider clothing; furniture,
appliances,... anything you no longer
want or need. Ask friend if they'd like to
run a jgini sale and try color coding
price tags to keep inventories
separate. •

• ;THE PRICE IS RIGHT:
Always mark prices or. everything,'
Suggested price for good quality used
clothing is one eighth the original cost.
check with store catalogues to get an
idea of original prices. Clothing older
than 10 years may be thought of as
"campy" and could be worth more to the
right buyers. Usually upholstered furniture
costs less than all wood. •
