Push your stuff out your front door or haul it to a friends house and sell it!

We are organizing So Cal Garage Sales for Charity!

There are now THREE ways to participate...

1) Host a garage sale at your house.

A $10 donation places an ad about your sale on our website highlighting the items you will be selling; new, used, handmade, anything goes! It's a garage sale! The ad will also list what percentage of your sales you will be donating to Scrapbook Royalty (minimum 10%).

By registering to host a garage sale you are agreeing to:
  • Donate a minimum of 10% of your total sales from the Black White & Gifts All Over event to Scrapbook Royalty. If you are currently registered for an upcoming Scrapbook Royalty event, you can choose to apply the donation towards your fundraising goal!

We will be listing the details of this event on Craig's List, Message Boards, Blogs, Our Newsletters, Newspapers, Face Book, Twitter, Garage Sale Hunter.com as well as posting on our blog and website and handing out flyers every where we can.
