Host a Summer Yard Sale

For those of you contemplating a summer move or even if you're just looking at getting rid of all that stuff stored in your attic, why not organize a yard sale? Not only does it feel great to lighten your household goods, but just think of all that extra money! Okay, maybe it won't be enough to pay for the moving company...maybe not even enough to pay for all those moving supplies...but you can make enough to pay for an endless supply of lattes, just what you need for those upcoming packing marathons.

And really, you can't charge a fortune for that garden gnome or for Aunt Lucy's lava lamp that is still in its box, but by hosting a garage sale you can get the whole family involved and have some fun, too.
