Rummage Sale "Grab Bags"

Small items ranging from 10 to 25 cents, can be a hassle to have to deal with at a rummage sale, and they take up a lot of table space! Try wrapping them (after sorting them into cost categories: 10 or 25 cents) in odds and ends comic paper, magazine pages, brown paper bags or WHATEVER. Sell as "white elephant gifts", used as little trivia prizes or Bingo prizes. Sell them in 1 or 2 dozen batches for 1 price. Be thankful to get rid of them!

If you find you are STILL blessed with them, find a veterans home or other care home or local hospital or other worthy group to give them to to do likewise with! Or sit them in a basket near the door to give away just for fun or to brighten someone's day! I have a lot of this type of item that I am more than willing to part with so I don't have to dust it or store it! It never seems to go away!
