It's That Time of Year...Garage Sale Season!

Do you enjoy the thrill of of the hunt? The sharp squeal that escapes your throat when you've finally found that gold giraffe brooch? That set of 1960's children's science books? That 1981 Schwinn World Sport? Well, then you are just as excited as I am!!

There are many reasons we each have for spending hours on a Saturday morning driving around town, sifting through other people's trash for our next treasure. No matter your reason, there are ways you can find out right where to go. 

One of the first places I go is the local newspaper. If you are interested strictly in Hendricks County garage and rummage sales, visit The Flyer Classifieds. If you want to venture into Marion County, check out the Indy Star Classifieds. Craigslist is another place to search for yard sales. If you're more interested in estate sales or auctions, Estatesales.net is your starting point.

And if you're interested in books, our collection features a variety of antique and price guides. We also have an online resource called Antiques Reference, where you can search for antiques and collectibles, and even find out their recent auction history.

The above website are by no means the only resources for finding garage and estate sales. And of course, there's always my favorite method...just driving around aimlessly! Do you know anywhere else we can look? Comment below!
