Our Other Table Options

Of course, this post discusses another great table option for sale set up. Our family also happened to have one of these tables; ironic of course, as we never played the game. Still the table provided great height & depth for optimal space. The one we had had a wooden base with legs that folded underneath & out of the way.  This gaming table came with a sort of cover-over wooden panel in-so-that it could be placed across the gaming table & be an instant flat surface - exactly what we needed in order to display items well. I believe we often used this table to display the apparel we no longer needed. Typically sweatshirts, sweaters, & tops in general.

Our family didn't have a garage, at least not an accessible one which could be used for a vehicle or be reached by anyone on our street as its location was at the back of the house & only accessible from the outside via a narrow gate entry, not until the house got remodeled anyway. We had a reasonable sized front yard & part of the side yard filtered up next to the, at the time, two-car, side-by-side driveway. So, when we had a "sale", it was a "yard sale", as in, it was definitely held in our yard.

We didn't have a lot of tables on hand to display our things, so these tables would all be used as well as one of these. Again, we never used the table for its intended purpose, yet since this table's legs easily folded up & could by shimmied out of sight & out of mind whenever necessary, it remained a piece of our household, coming out for the special occasions: larger family gatherings (toss a tablecloth on it & its an instant "kids' table"), & these yard sales.

We'd strategize these few tables about our yard, most utilizing the flattest land sections, such as the side yard & the driveway, then straddling our front walkway which divided the front yard into two sections leading everyone from our driveway to our front door. The system worked as we hosted numerous yard sales, & even a few multi-family sales, with each of these, hardly adjusting these options. In fact, I believe Mom & Dad still have this & this, & I know for certain that they still have this. If I glance at their gazebo, I see it 😊.
