I like to take the uncertainty out of people's street shopping.
My brother tried to get rid of a lawn mower once. He put it out by the curb with a "FREE!" sign, but nobody took it. His girlfriend came over, and put on a new sign that said, "$25 OR BEST OFFER." Then she said, "Let's go for a walk around the block." When they got back to the house, the mower had mysteriously disappeared.
