I'm just wondering if people have yard sales in Europe. They are quite common here in the US. People gather their "junk" and set up shop in their yard or garage to sell it. Many love going to yard sales, and even spend hours scouring through the papers setting up a route to take to get to as many sales as possible in a morning or whole day. I once heard that the US is one of the few countries where people rent storage units to stash more stuff. This thread reminded me of that, so I thought I'd also ask if those kinds of units are available in other parts of the world. It's basically like renting a garage to put your stuff. There are usually several rows of storage units located together. Maybe I'll have to take a picture tomorrow if I'm confusing anyone that isn't familiar with them.
