I generally go to garage sales S of 466 (i.e. with 5 miles of my house) and do it by golf cart (much easier to navigate and park and limits how much stuff I can buy).

Tips for having one.... limit it to one day (not 2) and be done by 10 or 11 am...not much left by then anyway. Also, if you don't have much stuff, combine with a neighbor. Nothing more aggravating than parking, walking up to the garage, and find they have 4 or 5 schlocky things. Also, best approach is to have a block-wide or community wide sale. If I know there are 5 households participating on a block, I'm more likely to go than if it is just one house.

There are some great buys to be had...small appliances, light fixtures, bikes, exercise equipment, christmas trees, clothes, decor...you name it.
