There is a community sale tomorrow by my house. Starts at 8 AM and I know there will be a line starting at seven. However there's a huge shopping center right next-door so I'm thinking about taking my bicycle in my van parking at the shopping center I'm riding through before it even opens! Only taking a backpack this way I only buy the small things and less I pay for it and go back and pick it up. Bad idea?

Nope. Whatever gets you there first works. No shame in this game!

I just checked the yard sale site and one person posted a Nintendo DS with 35 games for 35 bucks.... I probably won't sleep tonight. Lol

This is a great idea that I have considered for community sales before, let us know how it goes!

Interesting I hope you get some good deals.

You have any idea how jealous I am of you people who have big community sales and lots and lots of sales to choose between? Around me, there my be 4 sales in the whole city and youll probably have to drive 30 miles total to hit all of them.

Sale time now is 7 am. To early for a bike. I'll be all alone at that time. I'll take it in case it is still 8

The couple community sales I've been to I did better showing up at the end or going back at the end. Lots of folks saying just take it or give me a buck.

I did not do so hot, although I got some things to resell, small gold necklace and 2 10k rings. Also the gates opened at 6 am. I'm not that crazy and a lot of people were open at 6 too. I got there at 6:45. So the bike idea would have worked but they were open already.
