Super Gigantic Garage Sale – FAQ for Shopping at the Allentown Sale

Part of the fun of going to a Garage Sale is that you never know what you will find. Expect to find items typically sold at home garage sales.

Plus you never have to worry about weather conditions for our sale! The Garage Sale is indoors, in the Agri-plex at the Allentown Fairgrounds, a climate-controlled environment with seating and restrooms. (Children 12 and under are admitted for free)
