Garage sales this weekend

Score some superlative treasures

Did you know that practically every Saturday and Sunday morning millions upon hundreds of people in Austin turn their garages and front yards into stores for hours?

And sometimes you can find really cool stuff. Especially if your idea of cool stuff includes stained Yellowstone National Park T-shirts and figurines of that Native American guy who is always jamming on the flute so hard he can’t stand up straight.

Maybe you’re in need of a new old shitty recliner that doesn’t recline anymore. Maybe you’d love to get your hands on an old man’s golf trophies. Perhaps you’re in the market for another copy of the February 1994 issue of Family Circle. Whatever it is you’re looking for, you have a small chance of finding it or something equally bogus at the following Austin garage sales, which are coming up this weekend…
