The sale continues 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday at regular prices; 10 a.m.-5 p.m. April 30, which is half-price day; and 10 a.m.-noon May 1, when everything will be sold for $2 per bag. Only Preview Night has an admission charge.
Previous sales have included linens in good condition, books, cooking utensils, sporting goods, toys, crystal, china, silver, holiday decorations and camping equipment. The guild does not accept computer monitors, clothes and shoes, mattresses, any liquids such as paint, large appliances and items that do not work.
