Some people circle the ads in the paper and carefully plot out which rummage sale to hit. Kudos to you organized people! I prefer to just cruise around rummage "hot spots" and then check it out. Sort of like a rummage drive-by. If I see a ton of baby goo-goo stuff I don't bother. No offense to babies.
FREE Rummage items
The best part about rummage sales is the free box! You can find cool stuff in the free box or at the very least something to get for free that you can re-gift to the sister you don't like at Christmas.
Years ago when my Mom moved from a large house to an apartment we held a rummage sale. My Mom would see someone come to the sale and say "charge her extra, she was always crabby" and while I thought it was a grand idea and was ready to do it, my sister, Princess Kitty (PK) said it was wrong. Pffffffft. (The trouble with blogs is you can't hear sound effects...)
However, when the sale was winding down PK did go along with my idea of putting a large FREE sign for all the remaining items. We did that, went to lunch and ta-da, when we got back everything was gone and PK got a lovely Christmas gift from me that year.
