Summer is the perfect time to have a garage or yard sale and to make some extra money for your family vacation. The frustrating thing about hosting a garage sale is the advertising which can be difficult and costly. You either spend countless hours posting signs all over town or paying for an expensive advertisement in your local newspaper. The next time you have a yard sale you can advertise it for less by using Garage Sales Tracker, an online advertising company which allows sellers to advertise their event and buyers to find sales in their area. The costs of using Garage Sales Tracker are definitely cheaper than a newspaper and for a limited time they are offering free advertising. There is no limit to the amount of words you can use in your yard sale description and you can even add images to your listing which will showcase some of your great items. And if you need some Yard Sale Tips check out their blog for some ideas on how to have a successful sale.
If you like to go to garage sales, you can use the site’s free Garage Sale Locator to find local sales in your area. You can easily search by distance, city, date, and even by items listed for sale. Also you do not have spend time copying and pasting the seller’s address into Mapquest because you can easily do this from the Garage Sales Tracker Web site.
I have been saying for the last five years that we need to have a yard sale but have not wanted to pay the cost of a newspaper ad. Since Garage Sales Tracker is offering free advertising I think I am going to give it a try when we finally get around to hosting a sale.
