Danny Seo's Do Just One Thing

May 12: Yes, an old-fashioned garage sale is the most environmentally friendly way to find a new home for your old things and make a little cash. While selling previously loved items online is good too, selling in your community eliminates the need to package and ship items to the new owners. To have a successful sale, do it on a Friday or Saturday, and choose the first weekend of the month, when more people have discretionary cash. Set the date at least one month ahead to allow time to price everything and promote your sale.
