Are you a garage sale hound? Do you revel in the notion of finding hidden treasure in someone else’s collection? Then, keep reading. As most of you know, the rule of successful garage sale hunting is “being first.” I’ve found some great Internet sites that will give you the jump on your competition. Some of these sites simply help you plot an efficient route between all of the addresses. Others give you a preview of the loot you will find. So, before you jump in the car, check out these great Garage Sale links:
- Yard Sale Treasure Map – I love this site. It collects all of the local garage sales from Craigslist and presents them in map form. You can search the ads for specific items like “baby toys” or “furniture.” Then, click the “Optimize Route” button to finish up. What could be easier?
- Garage Sale Tracker – The feature that caused this site to be added to my favorites list is their iPhone app. Imagine, having the perfect Garage Sale tool in the palm of your hand. You can post your sale for free on this site, and it will even cross-post it to your Facebook Account if you want.
- GSALR – While not as polished as the other two, this site usually has the largest collection of sales. You can even add addresses from the paper and have it optimize your route.
