Selling Clothes at Yard Sale

in Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months
Has anyone sold their LOs clothes at a yard sale?  I'm just wondering how low you really have to price things to get people to buy them.  Unfortunately, we only have one baby/kid's consignment shop near us and they only take dressier clothes.  I've got boat loads of onesies and t-shirts, etc. that at some point I will want to get rid of.  I'll probably end up donating a lot of stuff but I was just wondering if a yard sale would even be worth the trouble.  TIA!

    I haven't sold anything but I buy a lot of things at garage sales. I don't buy any baby clothes over a dollar. Ideally I shoot for the sales with 25 or 50 cents per item. We will be having a garage sale at the end of September and I'll be pricing everything at 50 cents each.

    I haven't sold at a yard sale, but I've sold at a mom to mom sale and have bought at them too.  I did very well selling at $1 a piece for shirts/pants and onesies were 4/$1 and that's typically what I look for when buying as well.

    It depends on your area. Around here people won't buy most things (except nice dresses, coats, etc) unless they're 25-cents.

    I suggest to get any real money for them doing Craigslist or Amazon and selling them in large groupings. That's the only way I buy -- like bag of 12m clothes for $15 and then post pics of the clothes included

    Interesting! I had never thought of doing it this way.  Thanks for the tip!
