City Wide Yard Sale
Sep. 4th, 2008 06:43 pmIf you like rummage sales and have never been to Belleville's City Wide Yard Sale, you might want to pencil it in for this weekend. It's traditionally held the weekend after Labor Day, and though I haven't heard anything confirming they're definitely having it, I don't know why they wouldn't - it's been a tradition there for decades. I've gone several years and have scored some cool things, including a couple of VHS tapes for 50 cents and a really nice wooden jewelry box.
All you have to do is take I-94 to the Belleville Exit (190), turn south, and drive until you see all the folks swarming the streets. Park anywhere on Main or one of the side streets (I recommend Second or Third Street- free parking and pretty central) and just walk around. Not everyone participates, but you can easily hit half a dozen yard sales by just walking around one city block. Local churches often get in on this too, and they tend to have a really high concentration of cool stuff.
