Turn Your Rummage into Cash

May 1984

Historical May 1984 report or notice. Original dates, prices and contacts describe the source period; current availability has not been established.

Years and years of accumulating gadgets, gear, and garb can take its toll on spring cleaning, but there is a solution to that ever-growing pile of treasures that seems to have no immediate use. Your chance to turn this treasure into cold cash will happen on Saturday, June 9 from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. when Rosedale Neighborhood Association presents its Third Annual Rags-to-Riches Sale. Eager entrepreneurs need to register their yard sale with the Skinker-DeBaliviere Community Council to be included on the map.

The $5 registration fee will assure that your address will be prominently displayed on this map allowing visitors to pinpoint sales locations and zero in on the real bargains.

In conjunction with this extravaganza will be the always popular Men’s Liberation Bake Sale where future “Macho Menu” merchants will get a chance to sharpen their skills in anticipation of publication. Diverse dietary delicacies will feature a range of breakfast to dinner and are sure to please the most particular palate. Proceeds from the bake sale and yard sale registrations will go to the Rosedale Neighborhood Association. Volunteers for baking and any inquiries should be directed to the Skinker-DeBaliviere Community Council at 862-5122.
