    156 yard sales in 7 hours. Mostly sewing, but I did get dvds of Aristocats and Lady & the Tramp! All this for $12. Only bad part was there was no gardening supplies at any of the yard sales.

    How can you claim you live "in the middle of nowhere" if you could find that many sales even listed, say nothing about visited!
    Wish I could have spent the day with you!

    because an hour of my 7 hours was driving to the town that was holding it and back. One of the best things about Indiana is the Town-wide yard sales! Next Saturday, the town is closer but a lot smaller. I'm guessing there will be less than 50 participating.
