Mega sale sells out of inventory. No 3rd Day. July 5th sales date is cancelled.

Inventor of Mega Yard Sale concept is student at Somerset Community College, which should grant her at least three college hours, maybe an honorary doctoraate or two, for extraordinary achievement in the field of mass merchandising. -CM

Turn right and will be 1st blacktop on left. (Robertson Road about 500 feet) then 2nd drive on right. Signs are posted.
2) This morning we received this note from Colleen Guffey:
"I just want to thank you for the way you wrote my yard sale up. I am sure this will start a trend now!!!! Thanks in part to you, we made MEGA bucks....just kidding. We did move a lot of things and I thank you once again. Have a great 4th of July :)"
3) Just a moment ago, at 3:13pmCT we learned of the dazzling super success of the Mega Yard Sale concept:
"Will you announce the yard sale sold out and will not be open on Saturday, July 5th. Thank you."
A notation that the sale is over, sold out, and cancelled is entered in Yard Sales.
