You don't need to necessarily overlook soiled or worn items at a garage sale. Shelly shared this tip:
I bought a used umbrella stroller at a yard sale that looked really dirty. So I took it home and after trying to clean it up I made a removable cover for it that I can take off and wash. - Submitted by Shelly

To Shelly regarding dirty used umbrella stroller, test carpet cleaner spray; it worked fine for me and the stroller didn't lose its color!
