The Pet Food Bank garage sales are famous for the pet supplies. There are beds, bowls, collars, leashes, harnesses, toys, pet bed covers, cat supplies, soft carriers, small animal/bird cages and supplies, and of course, crates - plastic and metal - galore.

We make very good deals for rescuers. That is part of the goal of doing these sales - to make much-needed supplies available to rescuers at great prices.

• This will also be a large garage sale!
• There will be a bag/box sale starting at 1:45.
• Donations still being accepted.
• Note: There will be a 10% discount on your purchases if you bring a donation of pet food for the Pet Food Bank.
• Pets welcome - lots of shade and water available.

Date: Saturday, July 19
Time: 8:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m.
Place: next to Austin Flag and Flagpole
8405 South First
Austin, Texas

HOW YOU CAN HELP:

• Bring your wallet and a keen eye to spot the many fabulous bargains to be found at this sale. Remember, all proceeds go to support the above mentioned animal welfare organizations. Although unlikely, if you can not find anything to buy, donations will still be gratefully accepted.
