34th Annual Glitzy Garage Sale
June 4–6, 2010

Are you in need of decluttering but don't know what to do with all that stuff? Drop it off for the 34th Annual Womanspace Glitzy Garage Sale! This is our biggest and longest-running fundraiser and your one-stop donation site. We will only accept items after May 4. If you think an item is questionable, please call Womanspace at 815-877-0118.

Many volunteers make light work and there are many tasks we need help with. If you’re interested please call. For a more immediate opportunity, download a copy of our Garage Sale Flyer and post it on your car window, public bulletin boards, etc.

Acceptable Items

We will be glad to accept: (clean usable items)

• Books, tapes, DVDs, & CDs

• Small appliances, working TVs
  Arts & crafts; seasonal items (but no Christmas trees)

• Linens, drapes, pillows

Regarding Furniture

Because we have such limited storage space, we will take large items only close to the date of the sale. We would appreciate your bringing out large items no earlier than the week of the garage sale itself. If you need a pickup of these items, call and we will try to arrange it.
