By taking part in the May 7 official garage sale, organized by the Austin Daily Herald and the Austin Convention and Visitors Bureau, participants get their ad in the Herald May 5 and 6 on a map and list of sales and the benefit of being a part of a large garage sale event.

With ads starting at $10, list your sale, along with whatever gems have been hiding around the house. Bolster your ad with borders for an extra $1, rain insurance for $4, or add it to the Albert Lea Tribune for $4 more.
