Spokane Blogs: Garage Sales Begin

A lot of people pursue (garage) sales with a passion that easily matches that of the weekend golfer: gathering the ads, mapping a route, and hitting sale after sale for the best buys. Now that the weather’s starting to warm up, so will the sales. Of course, the recession gives the practice a little boost too, for both buyers and sellers. People might look to buy more used items at a discount these days — or they might be looking to sell off more old stuff to raise a little extra cash. If you’re in the latter camp, here’s a link to a page that rounds up a lot of advice for the garage seller/ Everyday Economy . More here :
