Frequently Asked Questions


What is this website?
This is a website where people can post their yard sale, garage sales, church sales, charity sales, community sales, block sales, rummage sales, and tag sales, have it shown on the map as a marker, and expandable into a ballon detailed with information. Conversely people can input their zipcode and search sales near by their area.
Whats different on this website from other free yard sale listings?
This website is unique in the sense that it provides users with a visual based listing. All other website provide a text based listing and you don't necessarily know where the sale is at by the address and have to look it up to make sure its not too far. This website takes that extra effort away by giving users an instant image of the location of the sale to quickly dismiss the ones that are too far.
Can I post sales of 1 item? Can I post items I want to give away?
Of course you can, take full advantages of the map function to let people know where to get your item.
Why only zipcode and no city, state?
Because everyone knows their own zipcode, and it doesn't make sense to try to find sales on the other side of the country on a zipcode that you do not know
I typed my zipcode in and there was nothing on the map, what gives?
That is because there are no sales in your area. Get your family and friends who are having sales to post on here!!
There are over XX sales in my area, but when I came to this website and typed in my zipcode, nothing showed up! Why?!
That is because nobody posted on here, even though the sales do exist in your area. Feel free to tell the people who are having sales to advertise on here, or better yet, be a good Samaritan and post them yourself! The more the merrier!
Do you have a bumper sticker or something to inform people of this site?
Sorry I do not, the site barely makes any money as it is so theres no way I can cover the cost of the website plus the accessories to advertise the website. You can however tell your friends and family about the site so that the site can expand! Word of mouth is the best way of advertising!
How long does the postings last on this website?
Each posting will be available until 4 days after the sale has taken place. This is to accomodate the sales that occurr over the span of more than 1 day.
I didn't receive my posting ID
Check your spam inbox, typically it ends up there cuz my site is as well known as CNN.
I got my posting ID but I deleted it anyway cuz I don't follow instructions
Please Shoot me an email with the START date of your sale and your zipcode, I can look into the database manually to retrieve the ID. This takes a while though.
Is this completely free?
Yes and it will remain so
What made you develop this website?
As a personal enthusiast of garage sales, I found that there is no consolidated website for all sales near my area. I live in Southern California and I tried to google Socal garage sales without success.
Why would I want to go to yard/garage sales?
If you want to make side cash, spending dough, hustling, you want to hit up yard/garage sales. The reason being you can obtain used goods at a very cheap price and in turn flip these items on eBay for an usual 100-200% return. There are some outrageous stories of >1000% returns on garage sale items. The trick is to know what to buy.
Is there a way to be informed of sales around my area?
Yes there is, you can subscribe to the newsletter here Currently it is not turned on because too many people complained to be removed.
I have a suggestion to your website/I found a bug, how can I tell you?
My contact is here Shoot me an email and I will most certainly address it.
I emailed you like around 200 years ago and you still have not replied
I am sorry, this site brings in about 10 cents a day so I have to work and go to school which leaves me very little time for the website. I would like to help each and everyone of you so please be patient and I will get to your email. I apologize.
