What's The Theme?

My daughter and I laugh each weekend as we garage sale about the weekend theme. What is that? Well it seems there is always a "theme" as we call it, meaning the same item over and over. One weekend, at every other sale, you might see an entertainment center or a dining room set or it might be a Barbie car or lawn mowers. We thought we were the only ones who noticed this unusual phenomenon. This weekend I was looking at a bunch of weekend finds from other sights when I saw this statement:
"Every week seems to have a theme, something you run into at every sale that week. This week's theme is "Hooks on Wood", from Bonnie at Cottage Hideaway
Then I saw this fact that I thought was extremely interesting: "I heard $3 billion is spent at garage sales in the US each year. That's a lot of quarters!" Random Anny.com
I guess when we think we might be the only ones with a thought, it only takes a little "surfing" to find we are wrong!!!

Most of the sales around here have a lot of clothes and very little else. That is why I think you find so many great items in your area. I love that sign below with the birds. I would have bought that for my yard, too. Sometimes, I just keep on driving when I see a whole yard full of mostly clothes.
When I have a sale, my theme is SELL.

A lot of clothes at sales around here also. When out and about a couple of weeks ago, there seemed to be a lot of furniture out.
