Every year in June, my neighborhood did garage sales so people from all over the city would go there and shop so it was like an outdoor mall. It would only last a few days. I remember I would go around and look at garage sales and buy things. But sadly there was this one family who sold toys so it was like a toy store but they sold broken ones too. One time when I was about six or seven, I got a Barbie motorcycle and it broke and it was put back together by ABC gum. My mother took it back and complained to the mother about it and the lady’s mother said “Deb give her back her money” so she did. Then towards the end of the week, their toys would be pretty much gone because they got sold. Then the Family moved down to Georgia and 1995 was the first time they didn’t do a garage sale. My family did garage sales too a few times. When I was 4 and 5 and again when I was nine and then when I was 12. In 1995, my family had a garage sale and used the money for our trip to Disneyland. My brothers and I sold our things we didn’t want and used it for Disneyland as well.
I wonder if my old neighborhood still does it. I would love to go back and shop. I wanted to go last year but I didn't know when it be.
