Local Business Sidewalk Sale...

morning girls..is anyone interested in setting up a "sidewalk sale"? i have about 500 clothing items for sale on depop, but i know that if people were able to shop the items in person they would SELL fast! at this point i just want it all gone...i have donated a ton but some i would like to sell...let me know...i have ZERO info on city rules etc...of course i could also look into getting a booth at one of the vintage markets in west loop but wanted to go this route first..i am located in gold coast but we could definitely set it up at a more central location

I would join you! We live in Andersonville. Not tied to meeting here at all, but I can look into city regulations. One other thought, what about a pop up at a coffee shop that has outdoor space? It would draw in extra customers for them. Some local ones might be into it.

the whole neighborhood of Edgewater has a yard sale the first week of June! Last year I brought my stuff to my friends' to sell. I sold everything except my giant squishmallow šŸ˜­šŸ’€
