The Great Newtown Garage Sale Day
There will be garage sales all over Newtown on Saturday 16th March from 9am till 12pm. There's a wonderful range of goods - from plants to furniture and everything in between - have a good browse of the offerings! Follow the link below to see the online map of this year's garage sales - click on the address to see what's for sale!
Please note that the Newtown Community and Cultural Centre on the corner of Rintoul and Colombo Streets will have their sale from 10am - 2pm - don't try and go early!
There are 23 sales entered online - most are around Newtown and are listed both online and on our printed map. Three are outside Newtown [at 115 Farnham St, 88 Aro St and 121b Brougham St Mt Vic] and not on the printed map.
Pick an address to start from, and the host there will have copies of the printed map so you can take a copy to guide your onward journey.
You can also pick up a map with all the listings on Friday afternoon or Saturday morning from the Newtown Library or from local cafes.
The Garage Sale Day will take place rain or shine. If its wet, check back and look at the online map, just in case there have been any cancellations by people who can't have their sale under cover.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
