How to Spot if your Car Mats Need Replacing
Depending on the quality of your car mats you may find that they need replacing sooner than you might think. If you have bought cheap universal mats in preference of slightly more expensive tailored car mats you may have to pay the price of replacing them more regularly. Buying cheap car mats is something of a false economy.
Your car mats will need replacing if they have bent out of shape, if they begin to smell musty, if the carpet is threadbare or if there are holes. As the driver's mat is most used it is a good indication to check this one first.
Good quality car mats sometimes have a double thickness heel pad on the driver's side to improve the durability of the set, but if not then the area where your heels rest against the car mat are usually the first to go.
Car mats that aren't tailored to fit are prone to bending and buckling out of shape. When this happens your car mats are no longer protecting the floor of your car and the deterioration of the floor mats will speed up. Worse still, if your car mats bend underneath your pedals it could impede your control over braking and accelerating. If you notice that your car mats regularly fold, don't take the risk, replace them with good quality tailored car mats from a reputable manufacturer.
Old carpet mats can sometimes give off a musty odour. This is a result of years of becoming damp and never being able to dry out properly. This is difficult to prevent. You can take them out to air if they become wet, but this is highly impractical. The musty odour is often a sign that the car mats are breeding mould. The good thing is that car mats are easy to replace. If you allow the moisture to seep to the carpet of the subfloor then that musty odour is much harder to get rid of. This is another reason why tailored car mats are better; they thoroughly protect the carpet underneath from moisture and dirt.
Whatever the reason for replacing your mats it is false economy to buy cheap. Quality tailored car mats are more durable and here's an extra tip: if you buy straight from a car mat manufacturer you can get them at a reduced, wholesale price.

Frequently Asked Questions...
How can we improve the number of people attending our block sale this weekend?
We are having a block sale this weekend here in Holland...we have 6 families confirmed and 3 maybe's...have posted ads in all the local papers, all the local Yahoo groups for yard and garage sales, have put signs up at stores/laundry mats, and have tons of signs for outlying intersections to point potential customers who didn't see the ads in the right direction. The ads have all the good "highlights" from everyone's sales. what else can we do to improve traffic flow to our sales?
A couple of the kids are having lemonade and cookie stands, but looking for ways to advertise free or cheap
Answer:
Make it a festive feeling sell, have lots of helium balloons tied to the goods, then give them to the buyers when they leave! Have good music playing, not all that rock trash, good tunes for everyone. Bake some brownies/cookies, have them their for the buyers. Display your goods with flair! Have sacks and paper to wrap the breakables with, treat your sale like it is a high end department store....
Organize and make sure everything looks sparkling clean!
even old magazines can be bundled together and tied with: for womens mags, ribbons, for mens, jute string, make them look like a real bargain.
Make sure everything has proper sizing and cost on it. Invest in a better price tag, than the stick on dot. You can go to an office supply store and find all sorts of tags, I like the string tags myself, lots of room for name price size, etc.
Group all electronics together, have an extention cord there so you can hook them up to show the working order.
Have one for any tools, etc.
If you are selling clothing, make them look good. If you are selling socks, bras, panties, roll them up and put in individual baggies with the sizes on them, that way they will stay neat.
Same for any grooming aids/makeup. Put liquids in plasitc bags and tape good.
Keep your sale area, clear of clutter and debris. If someone trips over sale items or boxes, etc, you can be held liable for injuries.
Make sure you have plenty of change, invest in a locking cash box and have a person stationed at the end of the drive, or closest to the exit(so people will have to come to/by them on their way to/from their cars)everything must be sacked or marked with a certain color marker to show it has been paid for, yes, people will steal at garage sales! creeps....just have a good method set up amoung all familes.
On price tags, you might do colors for different families.
If you have "free items" mark them with a permanent marker in a place only you and the others know....yes, people will say,oh, I got this out of the free box....creeps!
Get rest, have fun, look neat professional, dont smoke at sale, good breath, good hygene(yes, some people that put on garage sales are really gross)
Have a horn or loud bell, and every 5-10th customer ring it and say....winner gets to pick one book/ect from the dollar table or whatever, just a little gimmick...people remember that stuff so if you have another garage sale, they will be there again, word travels in the block sale world!
I would not let the small kids attend, they tend to get weepy when they see some of their "stuff" being sold.
If you have stuffed animals, lamp shades, artificial flowers, that gather lots of dust, invest in a can of computer air cleaner, it blows the dust off like magic!
Again, have fun, and hope you make lots of monies! Dont
spend it at the other families sales!ha
And one more thing, something that we do is invest in t-shirts for all the "worker bees/owners" maybe all wear Red ones bright yellow, lime green" then the buys knows who to bargain with!
