Find garage sales in your zip code with ZipGarage

ZipGarage is a new service that lets you list and find garage sales in your area. While the service is rather robust, there's not a lot to look at just yet. We entered about a dozen zip codes and couldn't find a single garage sale within 10 miles of any of them.
