That is neat, but they are not all there for today anyway. I went this morning and can't find several of the ones I went to on this map. I wonder where there source is for yardsales?

That is too cool!

I think the source is craigslist.

Very cool, however I'm not really sure how accurate even the mapping part is. I plugged in my town, and said yard sales within 10 miles - and 75% of the ones that were plugged in are at least 30 miles away. Still, very neat, and I like the fact that I can add in addresses of ones that are advertised in other places. Thanks so much for sharing & I repped ya.

thanks, I noticed for Minneapolis too, that people who didn't insert their own cities on their craigslist ad (had street address and state only) and it mapped them anyhow with that address in minneapolis. (and that could then be non-existant) Reading the little popup ad is the only thing that made you realize it wasn't the city I live in~ like "Brainerd HighSchool"...Brainerd is 2 hours away.
So you'd still have to click on the ones in your area and read the ad, but you could still map out your driving/biking.
