ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Garage sale

Hey kiddo! Have you ever heard of a garage sale? It's kind of like grown-up version of playing store or pretend marketplace, but instead of pretend toys, people are selling real things from their homes that they don't need anymore.

So let me explain it to you. A garage sale is when someone takes all the things they don't want anymore, like clothes, toys, books or even furniture, and they set up a little shop in their own driveway or garage for other people to come and look at.

Now, the cool thing is that garage sales usually have really good prices on the things they are selling. This is because people want to get rid of their things quickly and make some money in the process. So, you might be able to find some pretty cool things at a garage sale for cheap!

It's also a fun way for people in the neighborhood to get to know each other and to see what their neighbors have been holding on to all these years.

So, next time you see a garage sale sign on someone's front yard, go ahead and check it out because you might just find something special for a great price!
