A smoother route planner
Planning a Saturday route from your saved sales is now one continuous flow: pick where you're starting from and the best driving order appears instantly, with every stop numbered on the map. Drag stops to reorder, skip one (and add it back later) without losing your changes, and tap any stop to peek at the sale. On your phone, the mileage, drive time, and Google Maps button now stay within thumb's reach while you scroll.

Day-by-day schedule joins the sale info card
For sales with different hours on different days, the day-by-day schedule now lives inside the info card right above the weather forecast, so the when and the where sit together in one place.

Town maps no longer zoom in too far
When a town had just one upcoming sale, its map zoomed all the way in to a single rooftop. Town maps now always show the surrounding neighborhood so you can tell where the sale actually is.

Easier-to-scan category filters
Each category in the sale filters now has a little icon next to it — 🛋️ Furniture, 📚 Books, 📻 Vintage — so you can spot the one you're after at a glance instead of reading down the whole list.

A better "This Weekend" page
The "This Weekend" page now shows the exact dates it covers and groups sales by town, so it's easier to plan a route. And if nothing's listed for the weekend yet, it points you to a few town pages to browse instead of coming up empty.

Town pages now show what's coming and what just happened
Every town page now tells you how many sales are coming up, has a little map of where they are, and keeps a short list of what recently ran, just for reference. Handy if you want to see what a neighborhood's been like lately.

Tidier forms, same guidance
The alerts page and sale posting form traded their wordy explainers for little info icons. Tap or hover one whenever you want the full story, and enjoy the cleaner look the rest of the time.

Alert keywords now cast a wider net
Keywords in your email alerts now add to your matches instead of narrowing them. Follow your favorite towns and categories, add a keyword like “surfboards”, and you’ll hear about any sale that mentions it, anywhere on the East End.

Hosting a sale? The homepage now shows you how
Got stuff to sell? There's a new spot on the homepage that shows how easy it is to post your own sale and get it on the map. Five minutes, give or take.

Cleaner, calmer sale cards
Sale cards got a visual refresh: the map now shows just one badge (a bold “Today” when a sale is on, or a subtle “New” chip), and the sale type moved to a tidy label above the title. Less clutter, easier scanning.

The Back button remembers where you were
Filter the map, open a sale, then hit Back — the browse page now snaps right back to the exact view, filters, and search you left off with, instead of forgetting what you were looking at.
Browse sales →July 7, 2026
Email alerts for the sales you care about
Tell us which towns, sale types, and categories you're hunting for, and we'll email you a daily or weekly digest whenever new sales match. Set it up once and let the good finds come to you.

Faster pages, fresher listings
Pages across the site now load noticeably quicker, and every sale shows accurate local dates and times — so “Saturday 9 AM” always means Saturday 9 AM out east.

Spot the newest listings at a glance
Freshly added sales now wear a “New” badge, and the browse page has a filter for just-added listings — so you never miss what went up overnight.

Edit and resubmit your own sale
Posted a sale and spotted a typo? You can now edit a pending or rejected listing yourself and send it back for review — no need to start over.
