Not hard to find something at 34 garage sales

It was a bargain buyer’s paradise Saturday at Imperial’s citywide garage sale. Organized by The Imperial Republican, the event drew 34 separate sales in the city, which offered buyers a lot of choice bargains. Above, Anna Aragon of Imperial snatched up a pile of items at the sale hosted by Tonya Olsen and Angela Richmond on Buffalo Street.
