From early on in our union's history the garage sale has been one of the most popular ways of getting money for religious organizations, social clubs and schools. In the past they have been great money makers.
For your information, a bake sale is a way to make money where baked goods such as cupcakes and cookies are sold. A bake sale is usually held by small, non-profit organizations, such as clubs, school groups and Churches. A bake sale most often is set up around an area of pedestrian traffic, such as a church parking lot or at a busy intersection near a mall.
A garage sale is an casual, occasionally scheduled marketplace of recyled household goods, typically sold by a few families, church or charitable organization to raise money. In some neighborhoods there are designated days every year in which rummage sales are approved, so that people don't have to get the required permits or collect sales tax. In some cities metropolitan areas like (Beverly Hills, California) they require that the churches and organizations apply and paid for a yard sale or rummage sale permit, even with that, churches or organization can only hold their rummage sale or yard sales in the back of their homes or offices.
In spite of the insubstantial funds that can be made from garage sales and bake sale, a garage sale or bake sale is hard work. I can remember a long time ago, signing up to to prepare some baked goods and man a table for my local churches bake sale to raised money for a office, to be added on to the church.
It cost about about half a bill for the stuff to bake the brownies, it took us about two hours to bake them and we sat at the bake sale booth for a good six hours. The total take at my booth for the day was $150.00. If you only look at the cost of the materials I tripled my money for my church. However, the real story is, if you consider the labor, the time it took to bake the cookies and the time I spent sitting at the table selling them, it was a loss. It was a blessing that I could bring about a little money for my church but I wish I could have done more
