I didn't put Estate Sale as a choice because I think that is a separate type of sale.

I chose other because I needed to pick 2 and couldn't.

If it's in the yard, I call it a yard sale. If it's in the garage, I call it a garage sale.

I picked other because I am probably going to do absolutely nothing today just because that is how I want today to go!

Since the intent is to rummage thru someone's stuff that is 1 step away from the garbage dump, i chose rummage

It's typically a yard sale. But it's also called a rummage sale around here almost as much. The older folks and country folks tend to say rummage sale. The younger generations say yard sale.

Around here almost everyone calls it a garage sale because we set everything up in the garage and on the driveway. We also like to sit in the garage with the fans blowing and drinking cold drinks, with the temp at 95 degrees and the humidity at around 80% or more it is the only way to do it. :lol:

I won't vote on this because I refuse to go to any of them. Most everything I have is junk so I don't more junk..........

I voted yard sale.

There should be a law against them. I know Dr. Ron will agree with me.

My wife LOVES them. Everyone we past, "can we stop?" I don't even have to say no anymore, I just give the look

"Yard Sale" - for no particular reason, other than everything that is for sale is displayed in the yard.

Depends if it's being held in the yard or the garage...

whatever you call it, you always get the wise-guy who wants to know how much you want for your yard, garage.

garage sale, and the last time I had one, I put a price tag on the garage too, just for the funny guy's that ask that question (double the price of the house, they have to take it away.)

I voted yard sale but around this area we also call it rummage sales and garage sales. I usually call it yard sales.
