Friday Garage Sale Open Thread, 7/10
Garage Sale HPIM0475, originally uploaded by edwardkotun.
Here’s how to use this thread:
- Promote your own yard or garage sale.
- Tell everyone about a sale — any kind of sale — you stumbled on.
- Rant about sales, rave about sales.
- Talk about stuff you bought at sales this weekend.
If you haven’t already and you’re in the Chicago area, sign up for the BackGarage Garage Sale Hotlist. Every Friday morning I send out a list of my picks for the best garage sales, yard sales, estate sales, flea markets, auctions, rummage sales, and more. So no more rifling through the classified ads. BackGarage does all the work for you.
Interested? Sign up here. One last order of business! Chicagoans: you can now use the “share this on windy citizen” button and the bottom of all posts to share your favorite Chicago-related BackGarage posts with the rest of our fair city. If you don”t have one already, you’ll need an account at WindyCitizen.com, but you probably want one anyway. It’s what all the cool kids are doing these days.
Enjoy your weekends!





Anyone ever been to the Empty Bottle Garage Sale? It’s tomorrow at noon, but I haven’t found much info about what to expect if I make it there.
