One Really Good Reason To Attend the World’s Greatest Yard Sale

Here is a really good reason to attend The World's Greatest Yard Sale this Saturday (September 15th) at the Mesa County Fairgrounds.

Did you hear about the lady in Virginia who bought a painting at a flea market for $7. Turn out it was a Renoir painting valued at potentially $100,000!

In an even more ironic twist, the bargain hunter initially wasn’t  that interested in the painting -- she was more interested in the frame, and planned on taking the painting out and setting it aside. Her mother scrutinized the artwork a bit closer and noticed that a man named Renoir had signed it. She convinced her daughter, who had been holding onto the painting for a couple of years, to get the artwork appraised.

The fact is, when you go to a yard sale you never know what kind of valuable treasure you might find. So come on out this Saturday to the World's Greatest Yard Sale at the Mesa County Fairgrounds from 9am-3pm. You will find over 200 yard sale booths set up with all kinds of stuff for sale from sporting goods, tools, housewares, electronics and more-maybe even a valuable painting!Admission is $5, with kids 12 and under FREE. Get $2 off your admission with a coupon from Consign Design at 3rd and Main in downtown Grand Junction.
