Written By: Talk of the Sound News

NewRo Tag Sale Lady.jpgWell golly darn! So far there are no listings of any tag sales this weekend in the Journal News classifieds, the Pennysaver or Craiglist. Looks like I am going to need your help!

To report a tag sale or list your own leave a message at 914-500-8386 or email tagsalelady AT newrochelletalk DOT com. If you have a cell phone with a camera you can just snap a picture of any flyer stapled to a telephone pole and email it to me. The more the better!

For those planning a Garage Sale, you should know the City of New Rochelle has stiff penalties for holding garage sales without a permit so know the rules. Remember, the Tag Sale Lady always says says “holding a Garage Sale in New Rochelle without a permit is penny wise and pound foolish.” Not really but you know what I mean. Happy Bargain Hunting
