My Post-Season Yard Sale Confession | I've Paid For This Twice Already... http://www.paidtwice.com/2008/12/03/my-post-season-yard-sale-confession/#comment-65277 Annie Jones Wed, 03 Dec 2008 14:56:34 +0000 http://www.paidtwice.com/2008/12/03/my-post-season-yard-sale-confession/#comment-65277 I didn't stop going to sales altogether this past season, but because of gas costs, I did try to go to neighborhood, subdivision or citywide sales (in the case of small towns). That way I could go to many, many sales in a small geographical area. Saves both time and gas. I agree, though, that for some items, scouring the clearance aisles is almost as cost-effective. BTW, garage sales are still going here. :) There aren't many this time of year, but I'm still seeing at least 3 or 4 a weekend here in my town.
