Trash or Treasure: Finding Deals at Yard Sales

The phrase "the early bird gets the worm" has never been so true as when yard sale shopping with Jacksonville appraiser Barbara Langston and her son Jonathan.

I see this article has had postings removed. What was mentioned is that this rude woman needs to be pimp slapped for being so obnoxious, knocking on people's doors so early in the morning. If I see this woman out garage-saling, I'll be first in line for the slapping. If she shows up at your door before you start your garage sale, slam the door in her face.

she must be from up north.

You know you can complain about this assertive woman all you want, but shes asks the sellers for permission. They can always say NO.
This woman knows her stuff and knows who will buy it. She makes the economy work. You complainers need to look at the other side of the story before someone sends you to the old folks home early.

She rings my bell that early, she's likely to get shot.

This is why I don't have yard sales. I give my stuff to charities instead. I would not answer the door. They could come at the specified time or not come at all. I don't care who it is.

You are probably right. Nobody down here is that intelligent.

we stopped having yard sales when a woman followed my husband home before 7am when he was putting the signs out. I was not ready and told her so.
