Last Saturday, my cousin and I went around our neighbourhood, looking at things in yard sales. You wouldn't believe the great things we found and the great fun we had!
The yard sale in our neighbourhood is one of the biggest in the area. It started with only a few families, but as more and more people came to care about the environment, it became more and more popular. Now, even people from a few kilometers away come to the sale. Each family puts out things such as books, clothes，and even ovens. They hope others will find another use for those things.
The day was quite hot，so we got up quite early. First, we stopped at Ms. Fisher's house. Her son was leaving for college, so there were lots of things he no longer needed. He had several sets of music CDs and lots of good books. Guess what? I found one of my favorite books. What was more，all I had to pay was a dollar.What a deal! Then, we moved on to other houses. The street was full of people and everyone was happy.
Think about it. It's really good for the environment and for people too. Next time you feel like an adventure (探险), check out a yard sale. It's fun, and it' s a great way to use things again.
