Get ready for the 4th Annual Mammoth Moosup Neighborhood Yard Sale

It doesn’t happen until September 13th, but on Belair Drive in Moosup, Carol Lavigne is well into preparations for this year’s Mammoth Moosup Neighborhood Yard Sale. Carol’s helpers were out and about yesterday, spreading the word to neighbors. Fliers were distributed to each home in the area -- generally those running off or connected to High Street in Moosup.

Each home interested in participating is asked to contribute $5 towards printing and advertising. This is the fourth annual neighborhood yard sale, and Carol is praying for sunshine! It has grown larger every year and people come from far and wide to search out bargains.

Regardless of the weather, this sale goes on, with many sellers set up inside garages and on porches, etc — just in case! Many (but not all) of the participants selling on that Saturday will do it again on Sunday as well.

Carol is always interested in buying vintage jewelry, toys, including old dolls, miliary items, and depression glass. If you have any of these items to sell, or for anyone with questions about the yard sale, Carol can be reached at (860) 564-3547.
