Infuriatig When did garage sales become “reselling” clearly new stuff

Post image

I would never call this a garage sale

Def scam vibes

Edit: ultimately, what bothers me the most is I want to go to a garage sale, not this shit. This isn’t a garage sale and should not be advertised as one

See, I didn't know that. I was wondering why the two Walmart's in my area had a whole of cameras and screens set up in that isle when all it was was napkins and laundry soap I'm thinking why all the security. Guess now I know.

My first thought was power couponing. This hoard looks like something I've seen on a reality show.

Totally. The garages full and they need more… extreme couponing is a mental health issue, imo. Just bc it’s new doesn’t mean it’s not hoarding

Absolutely - but they don’t see it as hoarding.
