Stuff! Stuff you must have! |
Plainfield's annual monster event is upon us -- the annual FOSH (Friend of Sleepy Hollow) Yard Sale is this weekend, Saturday AND Sunday. (The 'Maidens In May' house tour is Sunday -- see separate post.)
The FOSH event draws thousands of eager bargain-hunters to Plainfield each year. The sale is from 9 AM - 4 PM both days, offering some of the best 'stuff' in New Jersey. The best place to start is along Watchung Avenue -- just look for balloons. Maps of participating homes are available at each location.

Same pictures as last year Dan
It seems like with last year extending it to both days really kept turnout on the low end. I remember when you couldn't find a place to park on Watchung Ave. because there were so many cars and at least a dozen houses participating. I also know many houses that only participated one of the days, I would think that had to make it somewhat confusing as well for people driving around looking for balloons.
