    We call them fireflies...

    And interestingly, we use all 3 terms, Rummage Sale, Yard Sale and Garage Sale.

    Rummage Sales are done by churches.

    Yard Sales are done by people without garages.

    Garage Sales are done by people with garages and organizations (other than churches) who take items donated to raise money for their cause.
