The biggest mistake someone having a garage sale makes is, advertising a sale for 8:00 and let 20-30 people stand in their driveway until exactly 8 and then opening the door, thats when stuff gets stolen.
Instead, if you are ready and its 7:30 let them in, usually they show up in small numbers.
What difference does it really make......you want to get rid of the stuff, right?
I once went to a street that had several sales, a guy was standing in front of his open garage door and it was about twenty minutes before the advertised time. He told me he could not let anyone in because it was a rule in TV not to let people in before the advertised time.
Like Andy Rooney said "I wish that there was a pill to give to people for stupidity!
