Good Old Jumble Sale Is Back With A New Look

The neighbourhood jumble sale is perhaps the first shopping experience to most of us

, memories of running up and down the local church or school hall improvised for the sale with local kids while moms and dads went about exploring, rummaging, bargaining and catching up on small talk with familiar faces around is something most of us would recall. Looking from an adult perspective especially from a recessionary, tighten your belt economy jumble sales are not a bad idea at all. These sales after all come with a 3 way benefit; clothes not any more useful to their owners get recycled profitably and became a hot find for eager buyers. A great way to rid ones wardrobe of unwanted and excessive clothes without having to destroy them.

The good news is that jumble sales are back with a bang and are no less popular than they used be in the past. It is just that jumble sales have got more trendy and chic in keeping with the changing times with live music, food and entertainment in good measure. A far cry from the staid and functional jumbles conducted in equally sombre settings of a school or church under the gaze of matrons and teachers. Today jumble sales are also organized in popular venues like pubs, bars and cafs which provides them a ready audience to address. If the demand for stalls and professional jumble organisers is anything to go by jumble sales are back and gaining in popularity. If the look and feel of jumbo sales have changed, so have the wares sold in them, today jumbo sales do not confine only to clothes and offer music records, raw foods and hand made jewellery. The upmarket jumble and pearls sale in North London has tarot readings, massages and makeovers.

The popularity and pull of these jumble sales are being leveraged by regular sellers who sell. Online and on eBay and also the one off sellers who just want to clear off the excess in their wardrobes and make some money in the process. Increased awareness on environment conservation, need for recycling and holding back the purse strings in a recessionary climate have given a shot in the arm to good old jumble sales and brought them out of the confines of the school to make them hot and happening.
