Treasure or....what is that?

Are you ready for some bargains? The annual citywide garage sale in Monroe is scheduled for next Saturday, August 16.

The Chamber of Commerce puts together the maps of registered participants. Maps can be picked up at the Chamber (located at 1509 9th St in Monroe) or at the area grocery stores, Piggly Wiggly or Pick’N’Save.

There are always unregistered sales as well since the deadline for being on the maps is rather early. Be sure to pick up the Monroe Shopping News or Monroe Times and look at the classifieds for information on these additional sales.

Who knows, perhaps you will find that vintage fishing reel you have always been looking for or a first edition book. I can guarantee that there will be children's clothing in abundance and plenty of salt and pepper shakers.

Garage sales - recycling at its finest!
