My town only allows garage sales to be held once in May and once in September. What do you think? Ridiculous, not enough time

| It’s an infringement of rights, someone could take it to court. Or people could organize & rent a space & tables to each participant at a community centre & hold sales that way. Probably made a bylaw due to traffic hazards posed by garage sales. | 0.03% | 1 |
