Oh where, oh where have the yard sales gone?

From the looks of things, it appears to be a slow yard saling weekend, particularly if you use the NYS yard sale postings as prophetic of what the weekend will hold. Only 10-11 yard sales per day. :-(

How does this compare with past weeks?
Last week there were 27.
On August 29, there were 48. Wowsers!

Why the slowdown? Perhaps people are too busy with getting the kiddos back in school. Perhaps there is still some recovering from the Great American Yard Sale. Perhaps it's the Labor Day weekend where everyone vacations and takes a break from laborious yard saling. Given the above factors, it is more than likely (and my wife's greatest hope) that this is the calm before the storm....:)
