I learned about Coco and Sarah's yard sale on Facebook, and the description piqued my curiosity:

"I'm moving down the street after 6 years, countless roommates, and a few squatters, and Sarah and I are selling some precious items and a few pieces of trash. Records! Books! Furniture! Artwork! Kitchenware! Clothing! Some things that may actually belong to you! Appliances! Electronics! Kitsch! Souls/soles! Bikes! Potentially a car! We'll have beer and bloodies if you prefer to just browse and help us ring in a new chapter. Tell your friends."

While only Coco was moving, the landlord suggested that both Coco and Sarah do something about the sheer volume of stuff accumulating in their basement. And so, they decided to have a yard sale.

From a Jane Fonda workout record to dishes right out of a 1970s dinner party, Coco didn't really feel any regret about what she was practically giving away. There were a few items—like some mid-century furniture pieces and an old turntable—that sold for less than they were worth, though, and Coco admitted that it felt a little strange.

Coco and Sarah are self-proclaimed hoarders who realized that it was time to give up a lot of their stuff. According to Coco, "Everyone should own [certain things] for a minute."
