Philip Pilar is the last house on the map. She said they started Thursday and still have hundreds of items to sell.

"It's a fun way of getting rid of stuff," said El Reno resident Philip Pilar. "This guy just goes, 'How much do you want for this? Do you know what this is?' And I said yeah I do but it's a garage sale!"

Many shoppers are looking for antiques, tools or hey fresh homegrown pecans.

One resident said she's using this opportunity to help her dad sell all of his vintage items.

"He's got some of the old car parts, tire wheels and some bumpers for the old Model T's," said El Reno resident Hollye Harrell.
