Garage Sale Question

I'm having a garage sale this weekend and I'm wondering how to physically price things. I want to put a price on everything, but I'm afraid of putting a sticker on something and then it not coming off cleanly. How did you put, or have seen, prices on at garage sales? TIA!

Re: Garage Sale Question

i use masking tape which i think works best. of course if the item stays in the sun too long, it's not going to matter what kind of sticky product you use, there will be leftover residue. i've also used jewelry tags with string at the end but discovered people have an easier time switching tags like that.

Buy different color round little stickers and put them on your items. You can always up them on the bottom of things. That way each color represents a different price.

It has always worked for us!

That's what we did for most of the stuff at my grandparent's recent sale. We also categorized as much as we can..Ex. This bin is $5, this bin $2, etc...
