Note how the only people to vote for tag sale are from the state of connecticut??

I use garage sale or yard sale, but primarily yard sale is used around here.

For the record, for the most part here in CT the following is true.

Tag Sale = Selling things at your house with tags on items as prices (so people don't ask you how much junk costs every 5 seconds).

Garage Sale = When it rains, you then call your tag sale a garage sale, cause that's where you have to frantically move the items and hope that people still come to it.

Rummage Sale = Church Tag Sale - Features specials like fill a paper bag with items for 5 dollars.

Estate Sale = Sale of items for people who died, usually handled by a private estate sale firm on behalf of the family..

Yard Sale - eh.. it's used in CT, but Tag Sale is more prevalent. :p

Flea Market = When you pay about 10-50 dollars at a public place to rent a table and/or spot to sell personal items hopefully at the end of the day making back that money, plus extra..


Wow.. I have no life...
But, with the warmer weather, Tag Sailing season is upon us, and I have to go find more junk to sit on shelves, and collect dust!! w00t.

Are you sure? I've never heard yard sale used around here, it's always a garage sale.

I voted other, because we use yard sale and garage sale about equally around here.

When the stuff is overpriced we call it an estate sale.
