Last Saturday saw the return of the Great Norway Bay Garage Sale, when the streets in the community are turned into vendor stalls and many residents set up shop.
Customers, many of who were also Norway Bay residents, milled from stand to stand searching out the next big deal on everything from furniture to entertainment.
One stand, set up at the corner of White Avenue and Second Line, saw all sorts of knick knacks, books, movies and the like on display. As customers came and went, the owner, Diane Perreault, explained that she took part in order to raise money for someone else.
