Well there are now more permanent weekend yardsales in the world than ever before. People attempting to profit a buck and not obey the law I guess. I recall a bit back being told that if that type of rummage sale abuse continued we would face the very real possibility of having to pay to have a rummage sale in RL, and were encouraged to call the police on this type of 'event'. I think people (or at least I) just gave up and now will end up paying for it, literally.

I think people (or at least I) just gave up and now will end up paying for it, literally. I know I sure gave up. I was going to spend a few minutes reporting people for all day yard sales once. I looked at the list and saw at least 10, many many many double postings and all day openings. I closed the list and moved on.

Heh, I actually was trying to get a point across subconcincely (sp).
I have these people near my house that have a rummage sale EVERY WEEKEND with different stuff. They shop other rummage sales and then sell the new stuff during the weekend.
