Bargains galore at Church Rummage Sale on Friday, Saturday

Posted at 5:42 pm September 15, 2016

Oak Ridge Unitarian Universalist Church will have its popular semi-annual rummage sale on Friday, September 16, from 6 to 8 p.m. and Saturday, September 17, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., a press release said. Bargain hunters have come to rely on the low prices for much-needed or desired items, the release said.

ORUUC is located at 809 Oak Ridge Turnpike. Proceeds raised will help to support various ministries of the church, the press release said.

Shop the sale and find very low prices for linens, kitchenware, small appliances, furniture, home décor items, DVDs, CDs, books, baby items, toys, tools, athletic equipment, garden equipment, low cost computers, TVs, and other electronic devices, the press release said.

For many shoppers, the sale is highly anticipated for renewing and refurbishing the wardrobe for the entire family, the release said. Clothing, shoes, and accessories will be available.

Early birds prefer shopping on Friday evening to get the best selections. Prices are doubled on Friday for all items in the preview sale.

The Boutique will feature art, designer wear, and collectibles that are priced slightly higher but are still a great value, the release said.

A Bowflex Power Pro with all extensions and attachments and an “Old Hickory” leather chair with ottoman, each in excellent condition, are among the items in the silent auction.

“Being advocates for recycling and repurposing, this sale saves items from loading our landfills, and instead finds a home with someone who can reuse it.” said Betsy Bauer, who for more than two decades has been the sale organizer.

For more information, call the Church office at (865) 483-6761.
