yard sale:

yard sale(庭院售物)又称garage sale(车库售物)、 porch sale或moving sale,是美国一种独特的售物方式。 由主人把家中多余不用的物品放在庭院中，车库里或门 廊下廉价出售。并在手写的广告中详细列出售卖的东西、 时间和地点，而且主人用标签注明每件物品的价钱，没 有标价的则可以还价。廉价处理的物品多种多样，多数 属用过的东西，但也有全新的物品。为了吸引更多的买 主，这种售货活动常在周末举行。 所谓Yard Sale 可以翻译成‘前院大清货’,指的是私 人家庭在自家的前院摆卖那些自己不要的旧货，供买主 选购。谁都爱买便宜货，买到便宜货，或者买到超值的 东西，谁会不喜欢？而卖主呢，看到自己认为是没有用、 不喜欢或者破旧的东西可以卖出去换点钱不说，还被别 人当成宝贝，更是喜不自禁了。
