This is a great app to navigate to yard sales.

This is such a wonderful free app that shows you yard sales in all states in the area you chose. Click on the yard sale to navigate to the sale. There is color codes that you use to use a color to make the different days different colors. You can check mark or make invisible after you find the sale. The only problems are when the person marks the location wrong or leaves out part of address. In that case we can make the sale as being in the wrong location. They have thought of everything! We have fun all over the US when we are visiting our family by finding sales nearby!

Good app. Great support!

We’ve use Yard Sale Treasure Map for three years. This is third year we’ve felt it worth the subscription. Subscription adds multiple features that make our search for treasures a breeze. This year we were having trouble linking both phones to the subscription. Developer was very responsive to our Facebook contact (and also replied to our website contact form entry). We sent screenshots of problem and he pointed us to a solution. He plans to change the app and possibly update documentation to help users who are legally attempting to link devices to the subscriptions. He’s really working to make this the premier yard sale app on the App Store.

Beyond frustrated

I paid my dues. The app worked well in the past but suddenly stopped. I couldn’t choose and switch days, couldn’t add the ads from the local newspaper, couldn’t sync it with my iPhone and worst of all it wouldn’t optimize my garage sale route. None of the features worked, OK these things happen so I tried contacting yard sale developers but unfortunately if you don’t have Facebook you can’t. Now that I wrote a comment they did reach out and fixed the contact page so you are able to contact them without Facebook. Hooray, so I reached out now through the new contact page and hoping for the best.

Wow! So much more than expected!

This app is awesome, easy to use, and makes yard sale hopping fun and easy. I love that it allows me to choose the navigation system to use. The fact I can create my route and no where I am going makes everything work smoothly. The only thing I would suggest is to allow the user a chance to confirm their rating of the yard sale. I had no clue whether the information saved or not. Or for that matter if anyone could read the review. Other than that it’s super awesome and I have been sharing it with my friends and family. Thank you!

Would be nice to view the next days sales the day before

On Thursday night I would like to be able to plan my route to see the sales on Friday, but it’s not possible. I have not been able to view the sales for Friday any day but Friday. It would also be nice if the default would open on the day it actually is. I have had Friday sales opened on a Friday only to have my phone time out and close. Then reopen the app, and go to where a sale is suppose to be, only to find out it defaulted to Saturday and the sale was not open yet. Makes me so mad.

Great potential

I love this app for so many reasons. It organizes sales by day of the week and location. It also gives you the ability to mark sales as favorites by clicking the star icon which is great. I’d love to be able to prioritize my route by location or interest level. Currently, it designs your route for sales in the order it was clicked. The search feature is excellent as I can search for sales by items which saves time. The other irritant that I’m not sure is in their control is that the address of sales are wrong often a fair amount of the time. Overall a good app with the potential to be great.

Love the App, “checked” feature broke

I bought the premium version of this app about two weeks ago, and the feature where it would show a checkmark when you’ve already looked at a yard sale was working then, but sometime from then to now, it’s not functioning properly. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, i think it’s something on the backend. I didn’t want to rate this below five stars because it’s an amazing app, but I would like this to be fixed

Great App

Have been using for over two years and would be lost without it. It shows all yard sales listed on Craigslist for the week and does so much more. It will optimize your route so you are not back tracking to sales you have already been to. Have never had the app to freeze. I use a iPad and it works great. You won’t get the full benefits of the app unless you pay the small fee for the paid version. You’ll be glad you did. No more than the cost of your morning cup of coffee.

Blank screen

So generally I really like this app and use it all the time but... the last few days all I get is a blank screen with a blue dot for my location and red dots where the sales are but no map, nothing but white. Also when I want to change the day of the week it won’t change. BTW I just renewed my subscription last month, I restarted my phone and the app and still the same. So not too happy right now.

Love this App!!

This is a great app. I do have a suggestion. I became paraplegic and confined to a wheelchair as a result of Bacterial meningitis last year. I have only recently started to drive again, and I'm so excited to be able to get out and go to yard sales once again. It would be so helpful to folks in my situation if there was a way for people to easily indicate if their sale is accessible or not. Thanks!

Doesn’t work- don’t waste your money

I used to love this app and have paid for a subscription for years, but for the last year or so it hasn’t been picking up hardly any of the sales in the area. A quick check on other sites shows me there should be dozens showing in my area (as there used to always be) but I only see a handful in the entire city and surrounding suburbs now. I reached out to customer service many months ago and never received any reply. I can see from other reviews that I’m not the only one this has happened to. Don’t waste your money, the app is broken.

Very useful for bargain hunting fun

The app links into the Craigslist database to aggregate all the yard / garage / house sales in your area. That just fine with me. The app takes the hard work out of the picture. The fun part is, you can use the app to take a weekend afternoon to jump from sale to sale and check out the variety of items. Even if you don't wind up buying all that much, you still will have had a great time browsing and meeting interesting people along the way.

Sales don’t update quickly enough/ add option for start time

I like this app but sales don’t get added in a timely manner. I’ll miss sales because of this. I’d check sales first thing in the morning and then if I check again later in the day sales are added that says it has started at 8am. Also, I would love if we could separate sales from their start up times. Maybe being able to filter them at 6am, 7am or 8am. It could save a ton of time when looking thru 100+ plus sales.

Well Done

What can I say? It does everything it's supposed to do. Directions/Locations have always accurate for me (NorCal suburbs), and it's a good use of an afternoon without anything to do. Would recommend for anyone; it's easy to use, non-intrusive as it only wants your location (duh), and allows you to read through the craigslist posts in-app for easy previews.

6 years ago, mommamel08

My favorite app!!

I have used this app for years now and it’s only gotten better!! I can peruse the sales the night before, mark them with various colored pins, and have my route already to go in the morning! It’s very accurate and I can even mark down if the sale location was accurate, etc. for other users to see.

Thought it was free(apparently not)

Well this is just crap. Went to go put a yard sale notification on the app for my church. When I noticed you have to pay for everything now including putting up a sale. I never got notification about this change. And the last update did not mention this either. This is deception. I’ve been using this app for a year now. I will definitely would like an answer and a response by getting rid of the paid subscription. Otherwise I’m going to the better business bureau. If nothing changes I’m deleting the app.

Great app

The only thing about this app that bugs me is the little arrow next to the day of the week at the top of the map. A normal person will tap the arrow to change days, but that doesn’t work! You have to tap the word! It's a little thing, but super annoying. 5 stars though because the app itself is great!

6 years ago, ringo175

What happened?

Used to work well, but recently has taken a dump. The app starts out great, showing a map with every sale around. But if I actually click on any of them to view details , the whole thing freezes. I have tried everything to make it work, but it simply does not hold up anymore. Too bad, because I used to love this app. But now it is a piece of garbage.

Great for rummagers

This is the best app I've found for all my rummage needs. Many people post pictures so you really know if they have what you are looking for. Directions take you right to it. Absolutely highly recommend this app to everyone looking for garage sales.

Lack of Communication

I love the App. It’s a GREAT APP! Had some problems with my subscription, but all is well now. My reason for 3 stars is because of “Lack of Communication”. You guys sent me the same response every time I reached out. I feel like it’s an automated response. Also, users check your “Junk” mail for reset emails from developers.

Don't waste your time on this app

I've used this app for years. It was great...BUT...now you'll need a subscription $$ to view sales on different days of the week. Shame on the developer for slipping this in with an update. These sales are mined free from Craigslist. It's not worth it for me to have to pay just to see them in map form. Don't include my sale in your previously great but now garbage app! I don't give my permission for you to use it secondhand from Craigslist. Your making money off the sale that I POSTED. Probably got an actionable legal case against this.

Addresses of Sales

It would be beneficial if each sale was required to list a complete address which includes the town. Many of the sales do not include the town and it is next to impossible to program a GPS to that location without the full address.

Question about Paid Version

I am unable to find if the paid version is a one time fee, monthly fee, or yearly fee. Also what are the differences between the paid version and the free version. Love this app, my biggest concern is I am finding more and more folks listing their yard sales on Facebook marketplace. Would love to FBM integrated.

Apps don't Sync

I enjoy using your app, but there is one problem that needs to be addressed. I have the app on my iPhone, as well as my iPad. However, my iPad shows more sales than my phone. This is inconvenient as my phone is always with me, but not my iPad. Is there anything I can do to sync the 2 apps?

Not Useful

This app requires more steps than are needed by just using a pencil and paper. I think it probably does wonderful things for those that can figure out how to use it. But for me, I open it and there are no sales shown. If I have to look them up and make entries myself, I don’t need this app. Too bad. I have used it in the past and it behaved as expected. I must have something set incorrectly. I surely would not pay to subscribe if I can’t figure out how to use it.

Very few sales

I’ve used this app for years and it worked well. However, now in 2022, the spring garage sales are flourishing - but most aren’t on this app! I knew there had to be more so I checked other apps - I could see 6 in my general area on this app but 19 in the same area on others. I’d have missed quite a few sales that had exactly what I was looking for. Truthfully I’d like to use this app because I like some features but what use is it if the sales aren’t there?

4 years ago, GoldieGuidoni

Who doesn’t love it?

I saw people driving their expensive cars doing garage sale! This is something to relax your mind! You can find something like you grandma had, and probably it is the one she had!! And you can have different talks at each place you stop. It’s nice!

Directions..

The app used to give you a direct track to get to a pin that you tap on.. it doesn’t do that anymore. I liked that option.. why is it no longer available?

2 years ago, catniptoy

Great great app but… seems to have stopped working?

I thought for the past couple months that wow, the pandemic really killed garage sales in my area but I finally went to Craigslist to cross check and it seems like something happened where FAR fewer listings are shown. I hope they fix!

Love it

This saves so much time deciding on & organizing stops. Recently spent 5 weeks in another state & it picked up the new location with out a problem. I could plan my stops in a geographic order, even though I didn’t know the area. So happy to have found this app.

6 years ago, Ko12334567890

Love it

Used it for years. Love the convenience of going to one place and having it all mapped on how to get there, see nearby sales and sale details. Used it different states when traveling. Best thing I have ever found to find sales. Highly recommend it.

Not good app

First of I paid money for this app, which is no problem if it did what it is supposed to do! It is supposed to show you where the garage sales are! But I turn it on every weekend and i only see one or two garage sales in the whole DMV area!!! What? People dont waste you money. You are better off with free craigslist. Trust me

No yards sales showing on this app

No yard sales showing on this app however there is at least 6 showing on Craigslist No way of contacting anyone to help with the app Save your money find another app

WARNING: Addictive!!

If you love garage sailing & finding great bargains, you will love this app! Great for finding sales near you!! Love this app! Sometimes the directions are off but I think that is a problem with Google and not the app. But that is very rare and overall I love this app I use it every weekend!

Got have it !

I’m lost out here without having the dots to know where to go . Also like the feature where I can make a Dot when I see a yard sale nobody knows about . helps me helps the people having the yard sale , win win

Disappointing yield for search results

The app works but I only get search results for about 25% of sales in my area. Please expand the number of sites used for finding data. Cool features, functions a bit slow, but fails to find enough sales in my area. GarageSaleFinder site finds 8 sales while this app only finds 2. Bummer, paid for a subscription but this is largely useless since I still have to rely on other sources.

Not a happy customer!!!

I have using this app for a long time. I just clicked on it and it will not let me roll to the days of the week that I was interested in without a subscription. In the past I have been able to look ahead during the week and plan my shopping trip without a subscription. I also posted an ad and now I am unable to see it because it’s for a week day. I’m not happy about this change. I may need to find another app.

1 year ago, Sick of flakes

What happened?!

I’m not happy. This was the first app I ever paid for. If you love garage sales, you hesitate spending money frivolously. I lived in Germany for two years so I couldn’t use this. One of the first things I did when I came back was redownload and pay. The app no longer pulls sales from Craigslist! This app is useless now. I use to recommend this app to anyone who would listen, but I will never pay again. Disappointing.

Best app for Yard sales

I've been a life-long yard sale and garage sale person, first in Connecticut for 40 years and now in Arizona and I think the Yard Sale app really makes it easy to plot out a good set to go to on a Saturday morning. Give it a try!

5 years ago, Livoniabob

No longer working right

The left side of page will not display the whole thing or stay opened.. So I can’t read the description of the sale or see the pictures.

1 year ago, Matti Frost

I liked this app until…

Features that were once free are now subscription only. I used to be able to view Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, but now I only get the current day and Saturday. Everything else is behind a paywall. I’ve got no issues paying but not when I have to pay for things that used to be included in the free version.

Great time saver on sale day

I love the app and the ability to search on key words on the purchased app. I find navigating between the app and the map sometimes a problem but that may be me.I like they way I can add a sale I come across.

Nothing is perfect, but this app helps!!

Nothing is perfect, but this app has helped me find garage sales when Facebook fails me. I do like the updated version and being able to navigate and check things off.

6 years ago, TinkRNone

Used to be better

I used it a lot more about a year ago. It freezes up and has limited features unless you pay for it. It doesn’t cost you anything for the ads that you get off of Craigslist. Doesn’t seem right to me. Also there’s no access to sales that occur on any day but Saturday unless a paid subscriber.

7 years ago, Not Working Correctly

Not Happy!!!!!!

I paid my $ and put in my ad for my yard sale and wasn't able to add pictures of my items. I was told it would show up in a couple of hours. It has been a good eight hours and I'm still waiting!!!!!

Used to be great.

Since there aren’t any recent reviews, I will leave one. This app used to be amazing! It was the best out there, but since losing the Craigslist listings, it isn’t worth having. Now there a just a few listings, and those that get listed are usually just a date and time. I really hope you can figure out how to upgrade your app because it isn’t what it used to be.

4 years ago, Drama Queen4465

Love this App!

Great place to seek and map out sales. I don't have to source through multiple places to find where all the sales are, you guys capture it all! Saves me so much time!

Great app, but trouble since iOS update

Love the app and have used the FREE version often. However, since recently upgrading with the new iOS, the day stays only on Saturday and will not change to a Friday when selected ... on Friday! I am using a mini iPad 4. Please correct ASAP. Thanks again for a great app tool for Yard Salers!

Loss of information

When I got this app I loved it, but now it’s become almost pointless since the developers have stopped working with other apps like Craigslist and now the information and pictures are not available so I will probably be removing this app because I’m not sure what the point is anymore

Great app but no sales

I love this app but since 2022 there have been no sales popping up on the app. I have friends who use this app also in different areas and they all say the same thing. Please fix this so I can keep treasure hunting.
