a.k.a Tag Sale!

It is about time for everyone to begin Spring cleaning! This means people are going to be getting rid of clutter in hopes to make a little money too, and as you drive around the neighborhoods of New England on weekends, you might see signs for “tag sales.” If you haven’t already been able to gather from the introduction to this post, tag sales are the same as garage sales or yard sales. Many New Englanders are actually unfamiliar with the terms “garage sale” and “yard sale,” and I have yet to figure out where “tag sale” came from. However, they are exactly the same concept – tag sale hunters can scan the driveway for treasured books, toy, knick-knacks, clothes, games, sports equipment, etc. and usually bargain a price with the owner for a mutual benefit. Don’t forget, the early bird gets the worm!
