Garage Sale

When people try to make a profit off of objects/junk they never bought themselves.

Person 1: (hangs up sign for garage sale)
Person 2: I'd better get out of here, this is starting to look like a Garage Sale

Crop Sales

The process of greeting and farting on a customer simultaneously. An anti-salesman's approach used to make unwanted customers leave.

Fred used the crop sales method to get those people in and out of the store with godspeed.

Strolling through the streets of New Orleans following a hurricane with the sole intent of collecting plastic bead necklaces from past Mardi Gras festivals that have been knocked from the trees by the storm

"Hey, would y'all do me a favor and help repair all this damage to my roof and windows?"
"No, sorry. I was kinda planning on a Mardi Gras Clearance Sale before all the good bead necklaces get taken or thrown away"

Olesen Sale

When a company raises prices by a large percentage, then declares a sale on the same items for a smaller percentage, giving the impression of big savings but in reality pocketing higher profits than usual. References Little House on the Prairie episode "Harriet's Happenings" (1978) in which the Mrs. Oleson raises the price of her goods 50% but advertises a 30% discount. "We'll make a 20% profit!"

"This TV cost less money before Black Friday! What an Olesen Sale!"
