Problem: Article: Even if you bought your juicer at $100, it'll be hard to move it for more than $20; good deals on electronics abound, so you've got to go lower than what savvy shoppers can find online. This includes china, flatware, baking supplies, and all other kitchen items. Make sure they've all been carefully cleaned before you put them on display. You could also have a "free" box with some of the least expensive items, so kids who come to the yard sale with their parents can take something home; perhaps their parents will also be more likely to buy something in this case.
Summary: Price computer equipment and other electronic equipment at $20 or lower. Price kitchen supplies at $1 - $3. Price toys at $1 - $3.

Problem: Article: Although these words sound similar and their meanings are often confused, they are quite different. Sympathy means that you feel sorry for someone or pity them. Empathy means that you have put yourself into the other person's situation and considered how they must feel. For example, you might feel sympathy for a homeless person on the street because their situation seems unpleasant. However, if you feel empathy for this person, you would have imagined what it is like to sleep on the hard concrete, wear the same clothes each day, beg people for money to buy food, and worry about your safety day after day. If you meet or hear about someone who has experienced a hardship, imagine how you would feel in that person's situation as a way to build empathy for them and gain a new perspective. How might you feel if you had gone through a similar experience? Why might you feel that way? What might you do to cope with the experience? For example, if the person describes what it was like to be discriminated against as an African American living in the South during the 1960s, you might imagine that they felt anger, frustration, sadness, helplessness, and hopelessness about being treated poorly due to the color of their skin. Thinking about how you would want someone to talk to you or help you if you were in their situation may also help you to develop empathy and understand other people's perspectives better. Imagine what someone could say or do to help you feel better if you were in that situation, then act accordingly. This may be as simple as acknowledging someone's pain and offering to help in any way you can. For example, if someone has just experienced the death of their family pet, then they might appreciate it if you said, "I'm so sorry for your loss. Is there anything I can do to help?" Considering the worst-case scenario may also help you to see someone else's perspective. Think about what someone could say or do to really hurt you. Then, use this experience to help you understand the hurt feelings that someone else has experienced. This will help you to build empathy and expand your perspective. For example, if someone called you an insulting name, how might you feel? What would your reaction be? Use these feelings to help you understand how someone who is different from you might feel and react if they were treated poorly.
Summary: Learn the difference between empathy and sympathy. Think about how you would feel in another person's situation. Aim to treat others how you would like to be treated. Imagine that someone said or did something mean-spirited to you.

Problem: Article: Opening a package with your teeth might be convenient, but tiny rips in the condom can happen that you might not notice before you put it on. Instead, tear open the wrapper by pulling apart the premade notch on one of the corners. Never use scissors, knives, or other sharp objects to open the package or you may accidentally puncture the condom. If it feels dry, stiff, or extra sticky when it comes out of the package, it might not have been stored properly. Discard a dry, sticky, and/or stiff condom and get a new one. Rings and genital piercings can tear a condom, so you may want to remove them before putting on a condom. Also, be careful when putting on a condom if you have sharp nails. Make sure you have squeezed the air out of the tip. Air in the tip of the condom can cause it to burst open and break during use. Squeeze the tip between your forefinger and thumb while you roll the rest of the condom down the penis. There are a couple of reasons why you need to make sure you have the right sized condom. Your condom should be neither too small nor too big and shouldn't roll back up from the base once you have it on an erect penis. Measure your erect penis to ensure you buy the right size - it might take a few tries to make sure you have the best fit. You need to have room at the tip to catch the semen. That tip that you pinched to squeeze out the air so the condom wouldn't burst has to have room for ejaculate. If you don't have space at the tip, the condom could burst, leaving you and your partner at risk for STIs and pregnancy. The condom can't be too loose so as to move around. A loose-fitting condom allows for movement of fluids or could fall off all together, again putting you and your partner at risk. Measure for fit at home before you buy. Be realistic; don't go for image. "Small" and "large" sizes have more to do with width than length but you can also get shorter or longer condoms, so practice safer sex and choose wisely. Oil-based lubricants can weaken the condom and make it break. Choose a water-based lubricant instead. Don't use oil-based lubricants, baby oil, massage lotion, petroleum jelly, or hand cream as a lubricant.
Summary: Do not use your teeth. Keep the package away from sharp objects. Feel the condom. Remove jewelry if it is in the way. Pinch the tip. Check your fit. Use a water-based lubricant.

Problem: Article: Wearing fins will amplify your movements and let you move forward quickly without a lot of disruptive splashing. Keep your legs fairly close together. Keep your fin stroke movements smooth and relaxed. Try to move from the hip to make use of your thigh muscles and avoid kicking with your knees, as this will only waste your energy. The right snorkeling technique to power yourself forward with the downward strokes. Try to avoid splashing, as this will scare off the fish and can be annoying to other swimmers around you. Snorkeling is best done on gentle waters, but even there you should learn to adjust your movements to the up and down surging of the waves. Snorkeling is not a race, and a good session can last for hours.
Summary:
Use fins on your feet. Hold your arms at your sides to reduce drag and extend your legs so that the fins are pointed behind you. With your knees slightly bent, kick slowly and powerfully with the fins. Kick farther down and less upwards whilst arching your back upward. Keep your fins below the water when kicking. Float with the waves. Swim at a steady comfortable pace to conserve your energy.
