Well Folks… it seems that spring may have finally sprung! That being the case, one of the things that always comes to my mind along with spring conditions is the need to get the yard and home back into ship shape. That means spring cleaning and de-cluttering! Some of us love it, some dread it! Personally I love this time of year! It’s difficult to single out a particular reason but I’m sure it has to do with the weather and all of the spring flowers! It’s a glorious time of year, alive with new life and rebirth! There is also the byproduct of all of this cleaning and de-cluttering, Unwanted stuff and the trips to the dump along with the Yard Sales that become as common as the daffodils sprouting in the yards that host them.  It’s to those who pour over the penny saver and news papers eagerly looking for the end product of seasonal cleaning compulsion that this BLOG is directed.

 

     While on an wandering web trek, I came across  a free site that I think will make the avid yard sale hunter giggle like a child. It’s called www.gsalr.com and it touts itself as the world’s largest Garage Sale, Yard Sale and Estate Sale Marketplace. Whether it is or isn’t I don’t propose to know but I can tell you it’s very easy to use and really slick. People post their sale information and it add it to the data base and plots the sale on a map. You as a shopper put in your desired geographical area, Date range or day of the week and it will bring up every sale on the map as push pins. When you mouse over the push pin it gives whatever details the seller included! Contents of the sale, rules, times etc. it’s very simple and very cool! Now the best part! You can save your selected sales and then print them on a map with driving instructions for a carefully planned day of sifting through other peoples trash and treasures! Give it a Shot I’m sure you will find it as entertaining as I did! Happy Yard Sailing!
