Hi guys,

Our annual Garage Sale is back by popular demand for 2015. A greater number of stores are participating this year (including the ACT for the first time) so hopefully there is a store near you.

Sale lists are published on our website for the items at our State Office locations. A list of other stores is also available, and you can contact them directly for information on products they will have on the day.

Jump on the site for full details.

www.arb.com.au/garage-sale

If you have any (non-item) related questions, please give us a holler.

Cheers
David

I don't need them but the fridge and double swag would be a good buy i think
Though i would grab one of those twin compressors for sure

Also the reverse camera and screen might be worth a look too

Yeah I got twin compressor, 2.5x2.5 awning, double swag and 47L fridge on my list of goodies. I even contemplated a new Winch.

Look at it this way, you've save at least that grand that you spent in your head.

I'm not going for that reason alone. Yeah, there's heaps that I want, even some that I need, but just spent my play money on a new jack and 24v impact gun and I need to do brakes next.

There is for us newbies. The air locker kit for less than half price looks good as does the twin compressor. That said, I can't afford to go for the specials at the moment dang it!

That place was crazy! I ended up picking up a 47L drive for $600 and my brother got one for $495, so pretty pumped with that! All the swags, awning and fridges went really quickly...

There was definitely a rush when the gates opened, and everyone running In - they were saying last year a guy apparently fell over and got trampled!

Spotted Roofy and Jane. Plus a few other members. Sorry fellas, got me stumped on their names.
I was right at the front of the gates with a couple of guys in front. They opened the gates and it was an absolute stampede. I ran in, spotted the only two twin compressors to my left with the awnings past them and to my right were the fridges. I went to grab a compressor and the bloke in front grabbed both! I near knocked his block off. Lol. So i grabbed an ARB4401A awning headed for the fridges and they were gone. :(
So i just picked up the awning and an ARB tyre inflator with gauge @$25.
Pretty happy really. I went for the awning as number 1 on my list and got it.
Gawd im knackered... got to bed around 1am and then up at 5.15am and drove 45minutes. Back to the inlaws to pickup my girls. Now i have to take my daughter to circus training near the city and sit there for two hours.
I need bed.

I went to one up here. Didnt have as much as your guys one and most of the stock looked like it had been sitting on the shelf for years. If I owned a cruiser ute or prado i would have scored

Best thing to do is go with a few mates and sort out what you want between each and split up when you get in there and grab the things for yourself and your mates.. I noticed a lot doing this and they got pretty much everything they wanted, like the bloke right in front of me who picked up both twin compressors. For me, the things I wanted were set apart from each other so I grabbed one thing and missed out on the other.

Definately the way to do it, me and my brother grabbed a frige each which was No. 1 priority, and by the time we got around to look at anything else, most of the good stuff was gone.

Glad to hear (some) of you boys got what you were after. The few people I spoke to at the gate were a little taken back when I said "get ready to run". Unfortunately that's the nature of big sales.

We're in the process of making sale items more accessible throughout the year, not just at the Garage Sale, so I'll keep you posted when I know more.

Thanks to those who went to the effort of turning up. I'd had a late one Friday, so I can appreciate that it's a long day for people... I didn't even have to run!
