It’s summertime, and that means it’s officially yard sale season. I probably pass two or three a day on my way to work, and it’s extremely tempting to stop and shop. While yard sales are a great way to get deals on household items, they can also lead to impulsive buys and uncontrolled spending. Sure, finding a bunch of Friends episodes on VHS is cool, but do you really NEED it? Not to mention that there are some items you should straight up avoid at yard sales. For what to always buy new, read this post by Coupon Closet:
-Bedding- sheets, blankets, and mattresses could be infested with bed bugs.
-Stuffed animals- same as bedding
-Car seats- you never know if its safety features are up to date, or if it has been recalled
-Computers- may have all kinds of nasty viruses
