I ABSOLUTELY agree with Justin - the "perpetual yard sales" all along Village Road, and within the city limits, are a true eyesore. People just haul their old toys, clothes and junk out to the road and leave them there for days and days and days. One trailer park on Old Fayetteville Road has a site with a paint bucket for shoppers to drop money in - there's never anyone outside sitting with the items. These are supposed to be residences, they're not supposed to be businesses - and one yard sale a month is enough for any home. The flea market "may" be closing (us locals have heard that for decades) but until then, take your junk up there to sell it after your once-a-month attempt in your own yard. Or use one of the three consignment shops in town. Nobody wants to see your moldy bloomers and broken toys out by the road, day after day after day...
Good riddance
