My bff had a yardsale. She let me bring what I wanted. I only brought one box of jewelry, so dumb cause I have a million boxes not doing a thing. Long resell story. Anyway I was offering it for next to nothing. Napier, monet, trifari, j crew, chicos all the costume names. In really good shape. I sold almost every item in less than two hours. But cheap. Two bucks for the best pieces. One of the people, the sweetest little old lady ever was digging in her purse. She didn't seem to have any money at all. But she had a piece of trifari in her hand with a death grip. Adorable. She asked if I would take 50 cents, so sweetly, I told her to get out! Lol. I gave her that piece, it didn't mean anything to me and it seemed like it meant a lot to her. I was leaving because I had to catch a ride to the store or, no food! In the box there was about 10-15 pieces left. I ran, hahaha haha I walked to her, she was a passenger in a small older than me , car. It looked really old, I asked her if she wanted the rest of the box. She explained she only had a teeny bit of her "fun" money left. I gave her the box. I didn't want to bring that home. The look in her eyes was like I was giving her a million bucks. She was so excited. That was the best thing that has happened to me in a long time. I realized she was riding in the car. A younger woman, driving, told me her mom worked her entire life and when she retired her 401k had been embezzled, so she received social security and because of everything she lost, she couldn't afford the house she raised her children in. The more her daughter talked the more I wanted to give her. Instead I made new friends. I still bring Miss Anne a gift every time I see her. She lives with her daughter and 2 grandchildren. I feel so blessed. I got a new piece of family at my bff's sale. I win. Sorry so long.

Sounds like a trip to Texas is warranted. And before we all get too much older LOL

[@maggielaurel2902]

Watching this video was painful for me. I’m not a haggler. To haggle without insulting the seller is an art.

You live in a quilting state and area. I live on the West coast where quilting is little known. The price of that cross stitched quilt out here would have cost you probably $50.00 +.

[@colnlincline3097]

That quilt is worth much more! Say, a couple hundred dollars. Even with the stains.

[@jillgott6567]

I had to stop yardsaling as I have roo much stuff. But, now I am listing more often on Marketplace I might just go. I have certainly found many a bargain. I too always group my items together then ask for a lower price. Negotiation if done politely and without trying to cheat people sometimes will lower the price, however, not always. Love your videos thank you for teaching us.

[@saraheisenhuth4723]

Oh my, those GI Joes were worth a lot if they were in good condition! My husband collects and dreams of finding them at yard sales.

[@CatLover-dj3uv]

Any kind of Dutch MCM chairs are worth probably $30 a chair. Easy fix easy

Karen, I love to watch your program. Your organisational skills are nothing short of superlative. I don’t know how you do it. Perfection❤

[@moladhdodhia164]

Thank you,this was such fun,beautiful neighborhood, everyone so friendly.

[@lorettacatron1068]

I would have snagged that quilt IF hand stitched

[@scottkro66]

How does one run a garage sale and not have change?

[@deolindarhoads5381]

Not cool to be real early and then ask for a discount, especially when you're reselling the stuff

[@linseyanne5975]

Looks like at the first one you passed over an old green stoneware crock with no lid.

[@maryellenp5468]

I don't discount til after 12pm. Too many potential buyers may be coming thru. Love those big houses!

[@lavenderclothesline]

So many of these Yardsales are over close to 12 😁

[@maryellenp5468]

😳 Oh okay! If I go to all that trouble of putting it out, mine stays out til at least 5pm. 🤣

[@juligriffin6115]

Do you remember what month this was in? That weather looks so nice!

You need to buy yourself a camping wagon that folds right away. Neatly. And holds up to 250 pounds. They are great. Walmart. Camping stores have them

$1.50 for empanadas! What a deal. Thanks for taking us to the yard sales!

[@lavenderclothesline]

One year I bought 20 and froze them 😂

[@eliea7900]

Great video. Thank you for taking us along. 😊

[@brendaburow3917]

Very disappointed that you couldn’t pay the asking price of $15 for the quilt which was well worth that. People have yard sales to make a few bucks. It takes time and effort to have one and people shouldn’t be expected to give their stuff away for almost nothing just so someone else can resell it and make a high profit. There were others as well that you did not treat fairly again expecting a price reduction when it was only a few dollars difference. I hope you reconsider your haggling when you go to future yard sales.

[@mandycarr4182]

Roger missed out

[@wildfyrefarmlife8638]

Those axis and allies games are super price. Also yes their are still real cowboys. We had to hire a cowboy to get our longhorn out of our neighbors pasture. He was truly amazing. FYI I live in Texas.

[@juliamusser8932]

You have such a beautiful voice. 😊 I don’t watch KZbin videos if their voice is annoying 😄

[@marygreen1910]

Might be a good idea to bring a wagon next year you could fill and pull along with you. I could tell carrying got to be a little much after awhile. Fun to watch though.

[@lavenderclothesline]

It’s too crowded and the streets and sidewalks too bumpy

[@TheSuzanne90210]

Loved this thank you ❤

Loved seeing beautiful homes & items. Girl you need to get a foldable cart. I got mine from Container Store but alot of mass retailers have them. Ikea bags, towels & my cart get me through my adventures here in Chicagoland. Keep getting what is yours!!!

Loved those lamps with scenery painted on them. I would have bought. How unique!

Karen, you’re amazing! Such a hard-working ambitious lady. As I lay here cozy in bed still watching you work, lol. Getting up soon though. My sis and I thrifted in a nearby town yesterday so I have two shopping bags full of pretty, Colorful ladies clothes to list local and/or on Poshmark. Have a good afternoon over there in the east. 😊

[@ingacrosby1554]

This video, shows me the drawbacks of running a rummage sale. Chicks like this one. I would put definite prices on everything, after getting it appraised & put a sign up "no haggling"! " This price is what it is". If something is imperfect, I'd write on a piece of paper, taped to the article "as is", so that nobody can come back demand a refund! I never ran a rummage sale, but was always thinking about it!

[@wandafields4165]

You are so kind and caring.I love watching you deal with people.

[@jessicabjorklund9875]

Karen to get all stains out use dawn detergent, baking soda and Hydrogen peroxide and mix it together and apply it with a old tooth brush and leave it for about 20 minutes; the stain is gone.

[@JacksMomPat]

Hi Karen, such fun! I felt like I was walking along with you! Love your negotiating skills! Cheers Pat

Great finds Judy🤣🤣🤣... you're funny! Girlfriend put some boxes/ old towels in your car to place/ protect your goodies. Karen remember the grocery shopping carts? Find you one. Less trips to the car. More time for treasures. You'll still get your exercise spending money 💰... lol.. I really enjoyed this Karen. Btw you've got the sweetest laughter. You're friendly and very cordial. You've got style and a classy lady. I got so excited when I saw the video time..🤣 I loved it. 🤗

[@princesscolorado5115]

I ❤️ those blue 💙 roasters

[@atomicredhead]

Karen! What a great sale. That lamp was beautiful. Shoot just the shade alone would have probably sold for 40+. Wish we had a neighborhood sale like that. And you're adorable. I hoping to make it to flip con. Looking forward to meeting you. Thanks for taking us along with you. Always fun to see what you pick up. Those little GI Joe figures see for a lot of $$.

Congratulations 49K 🎈 🎊 👏

[@theresastorto7647]

I enjoy your videos. Really enjoyed this one in particular. For over 25 yrs my father had a stand on Maxwell Street in the 60s-80's. He would go to stores like venture, turn style and buy "loads", bring it home and we would clean or repair and he'd sell on the "street". It was fun, lots of work but helped pay bills. Thanks for these videos.

[@kathyaldridge7171]

Karen, right after the empanadas, it looked as if the golf club was leading the way and looking at all the prospective purchases. Funny!

I love your videos; thank you from Tennessee! I am a very part-time reseller and I have used LA Awesome (Dollar Tree) on plush, clothing, shoes, and many other items with great success! The product has not harmed any of my items and works every time, for $1.25. My son is a truck driver and got oil and grease on his jeans. He was going to throw them away so I used the Awesome and they came clean.

[@Bella-zh1me]

Why go to a day of yard sales with 20s and no fives or singles? And then haggle on top if it.

[@gggrandmotherannonetsy423]

Oh My --- that was intense. You are a trooper for sure. I couldn't figure out if the guy who didn't have change wanted you to buy more or was just not worried about making sales. Seems like you got some great items, looking forward to the haul video.

Just a thought...next yard sale day--put about 6 totes in the back of your Jeep with some loose sheets of bubble wrap inside--then bring your purchased items to your car and you already have a tote that you can fill and close the lid when full---and if need be, stack on top of each other if you buy something large.

Hi I'm Lynn and just now I'm having to use my Hubby's phone mines playing up 😏, I'm from Yorkshire in England and might I just say how wonderful your manners are towards the people setting up , I remember years ago when I did carboots , the buys used to be a discrace they would pull all your things out of your car all over the floor , even if it was wet and then walk off not buying anything half the time 😏, so watching you is a real breath of fresh air 😊, Thanks for sharing 😊, Take Care and Stay Safe xx 🤗
