1.  Iowa Highway 141 Garage Sale

This one takes place in southwest Michigan. The garage sale organizers offer consumers more than 200 miles of hidden gems that stretch across the U.S. 12 from new Buffalo to Detroit.

3.  127 Yard Sale

Finally, we are heading to Alabama for the world's largest garage sale. It’s so big you have to come 2 weeks ahead of time to try to get a spot. It spans 690 miles through 6 different states, originating in Gadsden, Alabama, running through Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio and Michigan. The sale takes place from August 3rd through August 6th.
