Yard Sale Mapper

Price: Free

Yard Sale Mapper by Shawn Kolodgie makes sure a good yard sale never slips by you.

Use your iPad to help you locate all the upcoming yard sales so you'll be among the first out there searching for buried treasures, fabulous finds, and great deals. This app is a must-have for anyone with a passion for yard sales.

There's no point wasting time, energy, and gas while you drive around trying to locate sales. While you're doing that there's a good chance all the good deals are getting snapped up. Instead this app works by accessing Craigslist on your iPad. You can then view the yard sales in list or map format to plot your route.

You can get directions, read details about the yard sale, check out the street view of the sale to see how many people are there, and add sales you've found through other sources. When you're searching for the sales you can filter your results by distance, day of the week, and location.

On the flip side if you're holding a yard sale you can post it to Craigslist so this app will find it and show it to others who are searching in your region.

Yard Sale Mapper was updated on Mar. 27, 2013 and currently has 13 customer ratings with an average rating of four out of five stars.

As someone who loves to get out there at the yard sales on summer weekends I loved what this app was able to provide me with. The user-interface felt simple, fresh, and fun to use and I was able to find results very quickly.
