You could sell your items on an auction website, list them in the classifieds or just give the stuff away. Or you could host a killer garage sale that turns your castoffs into cold hard cash by following these steps: • Plan ahead. Give yourself more than a few weeks to get ready. Make sure the date you select is not conflicting with a holiday or a com- munity event. Check local laws regarding signage, restrictions and a requirement, if any, to get a permit. • Get organized. It pays to put your stuff in order. Designate your sale area. Take the time to repair and clean your sale items and your sale area, too. Dirt, grime and clut- ter repel shoppers. A nicely ordered space draws ready, willing and able buyers. • Pricing. Your goal is to get rid of your stuff while making some money. Research the prices of simi- lar items on eBay and Craigslist. For high-ticket items priced at more than $100, make sure you include manuals, warranties and other information that would be benefi- cial to the buyer. • Advertise. At the very least, put "How Little We Know" will be the topic of Dr. Joe Harrop's presentation at the Thursday, Feb. 17 meeting of the Democrats of Tehama County. Police reports The following informa- tion is compiled from Red Bluff Police Department, Tehama County Sheriff’s Department, Corning Police Department and California Highway Patrol.

Hency, also known as Erica Dawn Fos- ter and Erica Dawn Muss- a sign at the end of your street. But if you really want to attract motivated buyers, get seri- ous with the advertising. Consider an ad in the news- paper. Post on bulletin boards, and circulate fliers. You want your ad to stand out. • Setting up. Make your layout deliberate. Group things in sections. For example, put all kitchen items together in one area and toys and games in another. Make sure all of your clothes are hung. Rig up a makeshift hanging clothes rack with two ladders or hooks from the ceiling. Do not pile clothes on a table or in boxes. Mary Hunt • Point of purchase. The place where you will collect money is also a great place to sell cookies, coffee, snacks and drinks. If you have small items -- e.g., toys or jew- elry -- that don't go with anything else, divvy them up into small lunch bags. Then seal them, and mark them as "Grab Bags!" Priced rea- sonably and placed right by the checkout, they will fly off the table.
