Weekend Sales Forecast: Best Bets Come in Pairs

IMG_6984.JPG

So far, city dwellers are light on garage sales this weekend. There are lots of posts for appointment only sales or "here's a list of stuff I have for sale, moving soon, contact me if interested."  For apartment and condo sales like these, where it's a pain to post each item individually, I recently came across a free and easy solution.  It's a resource you can use in addition to posting on Craigslist, and I'll write about it next week.

Good things come in pairs---especially geographically for this weekend's sales.  I've surveyed the listings and matched up ones that are close to each other.  Here are a few routes to maximize your shopping for minimum travel.

Route #1 Northside

4042 N. Kimball and 4915 N. Damen
Both of these start at noon on Saturday, 11/21.  A lightening the load sale on Kimball, and art students welcome on Damen.  2.99 miles apart

Route #2 South Evanston

1620 Washington and 807 Madison  .9 miles apart
A four garage liquidation on Saturday only, and a garage sale in the alley off Madison--this one is on Sat and Sun.

Route #3 Rogers Park
7000 N Sheridan and 1545 W. Chase  .6 miles apart
Moving sale w/furniture on Sheridan from 10 to 5 on Saturday, and the second day for an estate sale in a condo on Chase

If you're sale is along the route, too, let everyone know by linking it in the comments.   .
