BRANDON — The annual Yard Sale Day in Brandon is a great event that helps recycle and reuse stuff that’s still good.
With dozens of yard sales registered on the official map and scores more set up around town, Brandon will be a busy place on Saturday, Aug. 5. Although most sales will not start until 9 a.m., the official regular and enhanced listings will be available starting at 7 a.m. online at brandon.org and at the Brandon Visitor Center at the historic Stephen A. Douglas Birthplace, located next to the Baptist Church at the corner of Routes 7 and 73 West.
Pick up a listing sheet and follow the sales. Downtown Brandon will be a busy place so make plans to head out to sales on the side streets and back roads. Enjoy the views and find the bargains that others are missing.
There will be a map of Brandon to help out, but plan on using your GPS and smart phones to input the complete addresses provided on the listings sheet.
Listings will not be available until Aug. 5. Sales will be held rain or shine.
