Gretel Grove residents are having an epic garage sale this weekend.
Amanda Revell is hoping to have her street transformed and jam-packed with bargains.
“I wanted to have a garage sale and thought it wouldn’t take too much more effort to involve the neighbours,” she said.
“I printed some flyers and did a letterbox drop.”
This is Ms Revell’s second attempt at organising a street garage sale.
“Last time, it rained, poured, and the day was miserable. But we had 30-plus groups come through and they were all positive.”
Teaching the kids about discipline and customer service was a priority for the Melton mother.
“A big part of it was to get the kids involved, have them go through their belongings and make a few dollars,” she said.
“It was a good experience for the kids – what do people do when they go to garage sales, how to treat customers.”
The garage sale will be from 9am-3pm, on Saturday, January 31, and Sunday, February 1, at Gretel Grove, Melton.
