not to sound like a snob, but I wouldn't buy anything at a garage sale, but especially not any type of clothing/shoes/etc.

There is a lot - bedding & clothes I would have a hard time with. I'm not a garage sale person.

My mom has gotten some phenomenal deals & amazing furniture, but I don't have the patience.

Anything that can't really be cleaned - cushiony furniture, mattresses, shoes, etc.

Dishware, kitchen stuff, linens, clothes (other then underwear - who would even sell used underwear Chat Icon ), etc would be ok since they can easily be washed well.

Shoes, intimtes, most clothing. I buy books for my classroom and things that can be washed/disinfected. Honestly, we've bought (as in my MIL and I) stuff for my niece for when they visit. We cleaned it up and damn, saved a lot of money. But we look for things that are in good condition.

I love yard sales, but I love estate sales even more.. I've gotten some beautiful antique furniture and china.

I would never buy any clothing, even shoes.

I love garage sales, but I stick to home and garden things- decorative stuff only, and furniture. I like cool vintage-y type stuff, and garage sales are a good place to find things like that.
