Thayer, Mo. \u2013 <\/strong>The second biannual city-wide yard sale of 2019 for Thayer Missouri and Mammoth Spring Arkansas was held this Friday and Saturday- October 4 and 5. Although it has been a hit in times past and it was advertised on the ecommnews [1]<\/sup><\/a> community calendar, many businesses and houses didn’t get the memo- leaving Thayer and Mammoth Spring lacking in their yard sales.<\/p>\n

Two City-Wide Sales<\/h2>\n

Twice every year, Mammoth Spring and Thayer get together to have a city-wide yard sale. Businesses and vendors have participated in this event in times past, hoping that yard sailors will stop by their store to buy some products before continuing onwards.<\/p>\n

Residents of these towns are also quick to jump on the free city-wide yard sale advertising.<\/p>\n

This Fall<\/h2>\n

This falls city-wide yard sale; however, was lacking in the yard sales. Although there were some sales, there was no more than what you would typically come across on a pleasant Saturday afternoon. Businesses that were open were open, with no sale signs in sight.<\/p>\n

In times past, the Mammoth Spring Chamber of Commerce has encouraged people to submit the address of the yard where they plan on having a yard sale, and the Chamber of Commerce will print maps with everyone’s location on it. [2]<\/sup><\/a> This October, however, there were no maps.<\/p>\n

Although the city-wide yard sale wasn’t the most significant success this year, there were still those of us who enjoyed getting out and hunting down a sale as we’d do on any weekend.<\/p>\n
