[quote name='SaraAB']Well, I don't hit enough sales to spend more than $50 per weekend, so I carry about $50 sometimes a little more. There aren't 40+ sales here every weekend and you can only do so much in the limited span of time you have to yard sale before the sales start packing everything up for the day (believe me some days I am still going at 3pm-4pm and a lot of sales are still out). This would vary with the area you live in. I will spend money when the price is right though. I have gone out early and the only thing that happened is that the people weren't ready and it made them mad (I have mentioned it before, my area doesn't seem to wake up before 10-11am on Saturdays). I didn't find more stuff or better prices, since some people were not fully set up I saw less stuff than I usually see.[/QUOTE]
the problem is that someday you are going to think why the heck did i only bring $50, I admit that 90% of the time I wont spend more than $50, but there have been days when my competition is not out, or citywides where I am more than happy I had a couple hundred on me. I have never seen anyone's eyes light up like the time if CIF'd a hundred dollars at a guy, He had 2 long tables full of games from NES to 360 he had individual tags on all of them totaling almost $1000, I offered him $80 and he declined then i offered him $100 and he declined so I whipped out 5 20's, set them on the table then started to put them back in my pocket...he gave in, lol.
