Meet and Greet

Tomorrow's Treasure Hunting column is on finding your way around a new city by scouting out the junk stores and garage sales. There is even a way to do this online
Meetup is an online group dedicated to organizing monthly get-togethers for people interested in various topics.
Seattle has a large group of thrift store shoppers that meet in locations around the area.
There isn't anything in Spokane, but that doesn't mean an enterprising junker couldn't get something going.
By the way, International Garage Sale Meetup Day is Aug. 12. More than 190 people have signed up in Bellevue, Wash.
Sounds like a great way to meet others who share your interests.
