EPIC Spring Yard Sale Coming!

GREAT NEWS!!  Scouter Rhonda is planning an EPIC spring yard sale for us all to help get to Europe and the World Jamboree!  There will be fliers, posters, radio, social media, and more!  We’ll be driving folks to the biggest yard sale of all time!  …so I hope you have lots of stuff to sell, lol!!

Basically you’ll let Rhonda know if your interested, and then, closer to the date, how much stuff you have (so we can figure out our needs for tables & space).  Customers will shop at your table, and you’ll give them a slip to take to the centralized cash – no need to deal with money yourself, no need for your own float!  Customers will love going table to table and only having to pay once!  This approach also lets us accept Credit Cards and even Debit!

Like all our trip fundraisers, the pay out is 90% – so you get 90% of the money brought in by the goods you sell deposited to your trip fundraising account.  Make sure to keep that in mind when you are pricing your goods.  If you really need to make $10 off an item, you will want to price it at $11 to account for the 10% you don’t keep.

So that’s it – easiest yard sale you’ll ever do!  To make it even better, after the sale closes we will help you get your remaining items online and we will kick off our online yard sale immediately after the real yard sale ends!  To support the in-person yard sale we will be suspending the ScoutAuction.ca site for now, and re-opening it with all the left overs from the yard sale.

So start collecting together your things and setting prices – SALE WILL BE ON SATURDAY, MAY 12TH
