This bug can be cured

There’s one bug that everyone gets in the spring and that’s the cleaning bug. Clean out the closets, the garage, the attic, the basement…. And what do you do with ALL that stuff? After all, one man’s trash is another man’s treasure! If eBay is too daunting and you haven’t carted it off to your favorite charity yet, you might be waiting for the perfect weekend for a garage sale. If that’s the case, we’ve got a few resources for you:

(Just keep in mind that if you happen to have a home owners association, there may be bylaws preventing you from having a sale at your home. Double check to make sure that you are not in violation of your neighborhood rules first!)
