Greenwood Garage Sale Day

  • Post author:

Sure, sure, we’ll have our weekly garage sale / open house map of Wallingford / Green Lake later today, but honestly, it just won’t compare to what’s going on up on Phinney Ridge / Greenwood, where they’re having their annual garage sale day. If this year is like past, there will be around 150 sales sprinkled throughout the neighborhood, plus a tool swap and a few flea markets for good measure.

You can download and print the map in advance, or pick one up at the Phinney Neighborhood Center (6532 Phinney Ave N).

Just in time, the Seattle Weekly offers their tips for spotting a good garage sale:

You rarely if ever find anything good at a sale that advertises 1.) baby clothes, 2.) a futon or 3.) an aquarium.

Back before we had Baby Z, we would have agreed with all three. Now, we’re not so sure; that onesie is kinda cute.

How about we sub in “exercise equipment” for baby clothes?

I started Wallyhood back in 2008, right when my son was born, because I realized I had lived in the neighborhood since 1993 and didn't really know my neighbors. I figured writing a blog about what was going on around me would be a good way to meet people and help other people do the same. As the years progressed, those neighbors have picked up the torch and it is now a group effort, which I adore. I moved out of Wallingford for a few years (2020 - 2025), but I'm back, now living with my wife, son and dog (Dillinger) up in Tangletown.

    ..but ..but.. I need a cheap futon mattress right now for an office project, and I’ve been wanting another aquarium!

    (Actually, anyone getting rid of their aquariums, feel free to contact me..)
