Garage sales, yard sales, estate sales, moving sales, curb alerts (free stuff at the curb), local store discounts, clearance sales, and free listings. Each listing shows its dates, times, prices, and location.

Dates, times, and prices come from the person who posted the listing and are shown on each deal page. Sales that have ended leave the board automatically. Always check the listing details before heading out.

With a free account, add sales to a route under "My routes" and open it on sale day to hit multiple sales in one trip. If you share your location, the stops sort nearest-first.

Yes. An optional paid promotion pins your sale to the top of the deal feed, the weekend view, and search results for 7 days. Promoted listings are clearly labeled "Promoted".

Two places. Neighbors post sales directly on the board for free, and our scouts gather public listings from sale sources: Craigslist, YardSaleSearch, EstateSales.net/EstateSales.org, and gsalr. Scout-gathered listings always carry a "Source:" line in the description linking back to the original post, so you can verify dates, times, and prices at the source. See the full list at sanantoniothrift.com/?p=sources.

Every deal page has a report option. Listings that collect 3 reports are hidden from the board automatically.

If you posted the listing, you can edit or delete it any time from your profile. For a scout-gathered listing (one with a "Source:" line), email support@sanantoniothrift.com with the listing link and what needs fixing — correction and takedown requests are reviewed promptly. The full policy is at sanantoniothrift.com/?p=sources.

Yes. Use the Español toggle in the site menu to switch the whole site to Spanish.
