If I recall correctly, I went to place an ad, online, and was shocked to see the cost was almost $100, I cancelled out of the order, as the cost was more then what I was listing the item for.......

Looks like garage sale ads are $41.60 for three days. At least that is what I got for a rate when I drafted an ad. I found this rate to be surprising. Most local papers have a discount for garage sales but that doesn't seem to be the case here. I'd give them a call tomorrow to get the scoop.

Newspapers across the country are just "trying to keep the wolf away from the door". The Daily Sun is no different. The reason neighbors go together for these sales is to keep the costs down---also, it makes the effort a little more fun!

What did they quote you? How would someone else know the cost without knowing how may words you will use?

Find the source is the best source!

Just saying!

If I remember when I did my sale, there were a couple of different options and it was thirty something. Also remember to put it on TOTV also. Good luck!!
