Easy! Free! Fun! Why not try?

Here's a tip: Write funny and you'll get more buyers. Here's an ad Montville Editor Carrie Jacobson wrote for a yard sale they had last year. At least a dozen people came because they laughed so hard at the ad:

YARD SALE!!!  - SATURDAY, 9-3 - FREE ELEPHANT!!!

All right, I lied about the elephant, but we've always taken great
pride in accumulating some of the finest junk in Southeastern
Connecticut. Your grandkids will be fighting over this stuff at the
reading of your last will and testament. We've got a Fender
Stratocaster, a microwave oven, a variety of decent books, pottery,
New original art, (not junk - artists on premises) tin striper lures,
fly tying lessons, and many, many, odds and ends that don't belong in a landfill. (and a few that probably do) Lots of fun stuff. 20%
discount for octogenarians - 50% buyer's premium for lawyers,
insurance salesmen, and convicted felons. Hard to go wrong. Free
coffee for Red Sox fans. Bring lots of cash.

ATTENTION EARLY BIRDS AND BURGLARS: IF YOU CAN'T OUTRUN A PITBULL, DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!!!! DOGS WILL NOT BE CAGED OR FED UNTIL 9 AM SHARP!
