This is an opportunity for you to share your garage sale with MyLitter readers! The majority of the sales listed would most likely be in the Houston or East Texas areas since that’s the primary base of the MyLitter readership, but if you are somewhere else and want to list yours, please feel free to do so.

If you have an sale that is running during the dates of this post (there will be a new post each week), comment below and provide the following information (you can copy and paste the list into your comment so you don’t miss anything):

• City, State:
• Dates & Times:
• Location (address and crossroads):
• Sale Type (single family, neighborhood, church sale, etc):
• What’s for Sale (clothing, sizes, household, etc):
• Additional Information:

If something changes about your sale (rained out, etc), please come back and edit your listing to reflect that.

It’s estimated that teachers across the nation spent 1.6 billion out of their own pockets in 2013 to supply the needs of children in their classroom. It has been shown in studies that children that are properly equipped for school get better grades, have better attendance, and higher graduation rates.

Do you want to help a local child go back to school this year, but don’t have the time shop for a list of items?

Champions for Kids, Elmer’s, and other sponsors have teamed up to make it easy for you to do at Walmart! All you have to do is find the display in one of the 2300 participating stores like I did, then purchase the backpack and drop it in the donation box.

Here’s the part where it gets even better!

When you are there or when you get home, share your donation on social media with #SimpleServeSave included and for every 5 social media shares Savings.com will donate another backpack to the drive. This is a great time to grab 4 of your friends that want to help and make a difference in 6 children’s lives in a simple act.
