For those of you who have garage sales or sell at the flea markets, how do you prepare for your weekend sales?

I used to do pricing and labeling of goods i find its a waste of time as nobody pays marked prices. Just load the stuff up and take tothe flear market or out to the garage. i do however make sure i have enough cash on hand for change, research anything im unsure about, etc.

When the weather warms, we close the shop on Sundays and head out to the flea market. We load up the junk on Saturday and get out there early Sunday. Once I get comfortable enough with finances, I'll hire someone to work the flea market Saturday/Sunday. Setup Friday evenings..

One trick I've learned when going to the flee market is to load the items I want to sell in buck last so they end up on my tables first. I also put them in easy to get to boxes so when the dealers flock around I can wheel and deal with them for 30 minutes or so, then I set up my items I want to sell by the piece. I usually make $50 to $100 off the dealers.
