What the fuck is a rummage sale

A garage sale but Wisconsin

You mean a 'yard sale'???

yeah that’s a yard sale

It's a garage sale
Because it's in your garage
And on your driveway, but that's beside the point

????????????? You let strangers off the street into your house?

No wonder serial killers like the midwest

NO. There's a door between your house and the garage. You psycho

??? i'm sorry but how the fuck does garage sale = serial killers in the midwest

Plus you're there. You don't LEAVE and let people do whatever the fuck they want in your absence

The garage counts as your house.
IDK maybe it's just a Cali thing to not let anyone in your personal bubble. lol

idk about WA yet tho

i've been in multiple garage sales that extended to inside the house and i've never seen a problem with it

bruh literally we just throw our shit into our yards and make people pay for it like how the hell do you let people just strut into your garages?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

whack

It's usually driveways. Idk, I think big garages are more common in the midwest than, like, the east coast. WI's barely midwest though.

Maybe it's just my town, but we have garage sales in big, two car garages and driveways, and a lot of people have pretty small yards/big backyards and small front yards/side yards and not front ones.

Because yards are disgusting? And uneven and you can't set up tables on them? The sun is hot and the garage provides shade? It's easier to move all your stuff to the garage than all the way to the yard?

Like, my yard is a smidge of backyard, a ton of side yard (on both sides) and not much front yard,

yeah but who cares you ain’t gonna be moving into the yard sale

So why tf y'all's stuff so unorganized that you have to call it a RUMMAGE sale??

we trust that the sweet little 75-year-old grandmama from across the street isn't going to murder us in plain sight while looking for some craft supplies to give her grandchildren…?

yeah but you'll still have to sit there for half the day while people show up and pay for things?

Because when we put it in our garages on tables, it's all on top of each other.

as a fellow wisconsinite
you set up a little table where the kids sell lemonade
and then you pull out those white fold up tables and cover them in boxes of s t u f f
they usually form rows
and you put them in your driveway
and sometimes in your garage
occasionally there's a clothing rack too

I don't think you understand. Garage sales usually go for at least two-three days, and they go ALL day. Midwestern moms are hardcore when it comes to this stuff

I usually say garage sale when I'm just going around to different sales, but I say rummage sale when it's like an organized event by a church or something.
