The re-sale of old items that have collected in parts of the house (often the basement of the garage). Dominated primarily by lower-class citizens or senior citizens.

A peculiarly middle-to-lower class phenomonen where the chiuldren of a household sell all their parents belongings at the weekend claiming poverty.
It works well on two levels for the children as:
1) they get the proceeds of the sale and
2) they get a pocket money raise because the parents feel guilty for not giving them enough pocket money in the first place
Sometimes used to fence stolen car stereos in the more dungeoneous povo estates

Father: Oh God, I think the kids have just had a garage sale. I swear I saw Mrs Fisk from number 18 walking home with a smile on her face.

"I tried to sell my So Solid Crew, More Fire Crew and Big Brovas albums at a garage sale for 50p, but no-one would buy them so I had to throw them in free with a box of out of date Maltesers."

He compulsively loaded up the car with so much shit that he couldn’t see out to drive, thanks to his garage sale masochism.
