The author needs a course in brevity...
This book is packed with information; too much information. I couldn't read over 200 pages on how to do a garage sale the right way! Mr. Schmeltz' "research" after studying a "thousand" garage sales doesn't take the place of actual experience. He treated the topic like a college essay, not an easy-to-use how-to on garage sales. I wonder how many who purchased this book actually read it cover to cover?

If you want to make lots of money, you need this book!
Previous garage sales I had held weren't a big success, so I purchased this book to help me do better. At the time my husband thought I was crazy, but did he change his tune! Les R. Schmeltz's book was wonderful. It helped me from beginning to end. By following his tips throughout the book we sold everything. My husband was shocked at the amount of money we made! People that came actually complimented us on our set-up and signs, one of the many things Mr. Schmetlz stated was an important feature for a garage sale. And I loved his "checklist" at the back of his book. If you want to have a great and successful garage sale, this book is a must! Similar Products
