Sales: Sale in the Alley

Fun story for my garage sailing (who needs the wind) readers who would never think twice about backtracking to a small garage sale sign. Sometimes at the peril of the passengers, but always in pursuit of the deal of a century.

You look both ways and cross the alley, already eyeing that distressed kitchen table just inside the garage—“Hey, I could cut 9 inches off those legs and we could use it in the living room. We do need a coffee table…”

You make eye contact and smile a hello at the current owners of your future stuff.
