Leading the list of what’s happening as your weekend begins – West Seattle Community Garage Sale Day 2023 is here!
Some started early, like Gladys at Sale #73, where they’re raising money for The Mount. This is the first year that more than 400 sales registered to be on the map, which you’ll find here, along with links to the printable list and mini-lists we’ve published this week – benefit sales, big sales, business sales, plant sales, pet-item sales, and sales expecting to offer lemonade stands (and what a day for them). Also check that page for announcements and last-minute cancellations. Whether you’re selling or shopping, if you have a fun photo, email or text it (please include the sale #). Updates all day!
