Garage Sale in Linwood - Tomorrow! (Saturday 9 March)
We are planning to head overseas during the year so have started clearing out our things now! We have a large selection of household items, books, linens, a set of golf clubs and and clothes. You can come and check out our SpringFree trampoline and swing set in the backyard which we will also be selling (most likely through TradeMe but open to good offers!!). Other things on offer are some bedding including two single electric blankets (in great condition), a portacot and two snow sleds. There is a large outdoor umbrella, single duvet, girls duvet cover set with matching pillowcase, summer weight sleeping bags, camp stretchers for kids, old TV cabinet (free to a good home). Our address is 13 Woodhouse St (off Gloucester) and we'll be running the sale from 8:30am to midday. Photos were taken when we first tried to have this sale in the middle of the summer holidays and had three people turn up (clearly not a good time of year) and we have added a LOT more since then. Come and make an offer!
