Garage sales are great fun, reuse of goods

Bruce from Takaro

Two places to find them...
- Here in Neighbourly...
www.neighbourly.co.nz...
a dedicated subgroup where you can see any happening, or post a message free to tell 17,000 people about yours
- In Facebook marketplace, where you can filter for locality, inspect for the date of the sale.
- Recently I got a good fridge, including delivery, for $125. Also, a snazzy wetsuit that fitted me perfectly, for $3. A CD collection of about 100 cds for about $30 to use in the kitchen when bored with radio, a civil defense wind-up radio/lamp, and a four gallon water container for $5. Beach shoes, $5.
- Tomorrow there's a sale at the Bowling club on Featherston St. near Botanical. None in the Standard tonight, but usually there's a few.
- 'Good to get out and about. Combine it with a visit to the Albert Street market, encounter friends, maybe have a meal in town.
