Thank you for featuring my blog! I live in Chicagoloand, so I know what it's like to get to a did-i-just-waste-my-time-by-getting-out-of-my-car garage sale. I haven't come across anyone so honest about bad garage sale, so I had to introduce your view on my blog. I love garage sale. People here enjoy garage sale like it's their hobby. We find any reason to be outside during the short 3 months of sommer, garage sale seems a perfect opportunity. I lived in AZ before, they don't have many garage sale(they will be scorched under 100F). Thrift stores were great place to shop.Iit's totally opposite here in Midwest. I also added my view of "sign that a sale is going to suck " in my blog. "sign is written on the ripped cardboard" "tiny letters only flea can read" "sign is tied to the electric pole. Everytime wind blows, the arrow points at different direction(pretty common in the Windy City)" "selling whole bunch of same thing...store inventory from 99cent store?" My blog is basically about showing my flea market, garage sale, estate sale finds. Althugh it's not in English, you can enjoy the pictures. Oh, and I love bad translations too. Hi there.
