The Boston Herald asked for my best garage saling tips, including “What NOT to buy?” I avoid: • Cribs and car seats: “Safety requirements change… You don’t want to put your child at risk in anyway.” • Mattresses: “Mattresses are gross, and (they can have) bedbugs.

I had some fun on Good Day NY recently with Rosanna Scotto, Greg Kelly, and MSNBC’s Alison Stewart. (Check out her new book: JUNK.) We had ourselves a New York City street sale, raising money for charity. Rosanna wanted to know my #1 secret for buyers to get good deals at sales. That […]
As I’ve said, “There’s treasure in them thar hills!” Perhaps this summer you’ll join me on the hunt? Did you hear about the family that sold a 1,000-year-old Chinese bowl they bought for a few bucks at a NY garage sale for $2.2 million at Sotheby’s?!

The Today show asked your garage sale guru to share tips to help you walk away a happy shopper. “If you are serious about it, look on Craiglist, in the newspaper, and on garage sale websites that aggregate all the local sales to get a general idea of where you’re headed first,” says Bruce […]
Today’s fun on the Better Show included my tips on how to host a money making garage sale AND how to find TREASURE at one. I love being on with Emmy nominees JD Roberto and Rebecca Budig. To me, they are what hosts should be: interested, cheerful and FUN. Question is: What did I […]
This week I returned to New York with a slew of messages from people saying they had spotted me in the National Enquirer. I’m happy to report my inclusion was not due to a) celebrity facelifts gone awry b) cheating scandal or c) UFO abduction… but rather, how to strike gold at garage sales. […]
Hoping your summer was fantastic. My #backtoschool report: I scored some great bargains (and was the cover boy for Kingston Life Magazine doing so!) Began an extensive (read expensive!) house renovation at Edgewater Farm (very happy now that I only bought bargains!) Spent a lot of time at the beach (who knew “no plumbing” […]
