I finally saw the light on garage sale flipping after a $5 lamp

Grabbed a beat-up table lamp at a yard sale in Tacoma for $5, cleaned it up, and sold it on Facebook Marketplace for $120 two hours later. What's the wildest flip you've pulled off with zero effort?

Did you wipe the dust off it or actually put in any real work? I sold a free curb chair for $80 once just because I staged it with a cute pillow I already owned.

Oh for sure @sandrat24, the staging part is everything lol. I once grabbed a beat up nightstand from a garage sale for $3, threw a coat of chalk paint on it and put a little succulent on top, sold it for $65 that same week. It's literally just about making it look like it belongs in a catalog for 5 seconds. People see the cute pillow or the plant and forget it was literally trash 2 days ago haha.

Keep the day job, that's not a lifestyle yet.
