All right. Does anyone have any experience with yard or simple estate sales? Any personal experiences that yielded unexpected insights into such a thing? It's been put off a week, so you have plenty of time to let me know.

I'm looking at this site.

What I've learned so far is this:

One person handles money.

Wear a fanny pack rather than use a cash box.

Use neon-colored poster paper. Very black markers or black paint, with arrows.

Tag things with prices.

Newspapers for glass objects.

Advertise guy things.

Have plenty of plastic bags on hand for people to carry things away.

Watch local restrictions.

Carry a 45. (Sure it's not the same, but close enough.)
