The Lincoln Highway Buy-Way, a yard sale running along the road through 4 states, is set for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, August 7-9, 2008. Launched in Ohio a few years ago, it has grown to include Indiana, Illinois, and West Virginia. Homeowners and businesses set up sales or offer specials along the way, making for a fun yard sale/road trip. Ohio even distributes thousands of free color maps along the route showing the road and Buy-Way business supporters.
Above: During last year’s Buy-Way, we lunched at the Hot Dog Shop in East Liverpool, Ohio.

I am a die-hard “127 – Yard Sale” attendee – but this year we’re going to give the Buy-Way a try. Any recommendations on places to stay along the route and best cities to visit. We are looking forward to this adventure!!

I’m going again to the 127. Don’t seem to have too much response from the Buy-Way organizers. Let me know what you think of the Buy-Way when you get back. Have fun.
