Simplify Your Life Part II: That's Not Stuff That's Our Yard Sale!!

Many moons ago we at Sugarloaf invented the "quick and dirty" yard sale. We would wait till the River Road Unitarian Universalist Congregation Yard Sale had finished. Then we would arrange with the dear yard sale organizers of River Road to pick up everything they did not sell. Our caravan of cars, vans, and trucks would show up at River Road just as their yard sale was winding down. We would bring it back to the Fellowship Hall and sell it at our "quick and dirty" yard sale. We made very good money. After our yard sale we would give away unsold items; the clothes to consignment shops, and all the rest to Goodwill.

Our method resulted in more "stuff diversity". We were small back then and it's hard to get a critical mass of stuff for a yard sale with a small group of people. Plus we were doing a public service for the community and for River Road. The River Road yard sale is HUGE and structured like a department store!!

We felt like we were not wasting any portion of the great web of stuff.

We are very grateful to River Road for all the Stuff...
