The three Rs of bargain shopping
Reduce, reuse and recycle while you hunt for treasures.
The Tiger Treasures Rummage Sale starts at 7 a.m. (6 a.m. if you’re an early bird) Saturday, May 30, on the east side of Faurot Field at Mizzou.

Students who recently vacated Mizzou’s residence halls, student apartments and fraternity/sorority houses have donated their stuff — electronics, athletic gear, books, clothes, thingamajigs — to be sold to fellow Columbians. The event helps bargain shoppers get great deals and keeps reusable items out of landfills.
Want to get a jump on the shopping competition? Show up at 6 a.m., and pay a $5 fee for early admission. Proceeds from early-bird charges are donated to the Heart of Missouri United Way, an umbrella organization serving area nonprofit groups.
