Question of the Day: What's Your Secret to a Successful Yard Sale?

This weekend is the time to clear the house of stuff and make a little extra money — share with us your yard sale secrets.

Memorial Day Weekend is the perfect time to throw that yard sale you've been thinking about all winter (as long as the weather holds). North Fork Patch wants to know your tips for yard sale dos and don'ts — what sells and for how much? Do you set up your own private yard sale or make it a block party thing? Do you advertise and if so, how do you do it? What sorts of items are best to just give away?

Feel free to comment in the boxes below. And email North Fork Patch editor Sandy Martocchia at sandymart09@aol.com to have your yard sale listed in our events calendar.
