1000 Flowers for the Planet - #625 Join the Garage Sale Trail

1000 Flowers for the Planet - #625 Join the Garage Sale Trail

-->
What a great idea! In Australia we have the national Garage Sale Trail – one day put aside for everyone to organize their own garage sales and recycle their unwanted household goods. Check out the website at  https://garagesaletrail.com.au/ where all the information is at your fingertips. Local councils support the initiative, and encourage people to gather all their unused and unwanted ‘stuff’ and sell it to someone who will use it or cherish it. It’s a great way to recycle, upcycle, and share resources. Sellers can advertise their sale on the website for free and buyers can download a map to follow, indicating all the sales in their local area. Sellers get to make a bit of money, clear out their cupboards and garages and freshen their lives a bit. Purchasers get to enjoy a day out going from garage sale to garage sale, find treasures and maybe meet some neighbours they hadn’t met before. It’s a win/win situation.
Join in the resource sharing yourself and have a fun day.
(Do you have garage sale trails in your country?)
