How a hunt goes
Find sales for yourself — and help the next hunter on the map. Real stops, honest marks, navigation you already trust.
-
Open the map
Garage, estate, thrift, pawn, markets nearby — hunt here or search a city.
-
Share what you spot
Drop a left/right sale sign, report a yard sale that isn’t listed yet, confirm an UNVERIFIED treasure — you’re putting finds on the map for everyone behind you.
-
Boom or Bust the stop
Rate the haul so other hunters know if it was worth the drive. Mark visited or skipped as you go; Plus unlocks filters to hide noise on the map.
-
Navigate — or trip it
Hand off to Apple Maps, Google, or Waze. Pro: multi-stop routes, save & share.

Keep the map honest
This isn’t a paid-listing board. Hunters rate the haul so the next drive is smarter.
Boom means it was worth your time. Bust means you can skip it next pass — Plus can filter those out when you need a cleaner map.
Community votes stack. Your personal marks stay yours. The goal is a living weekend guide, not a static directory.
Hunt free. Level up when it pays for itself.
Core mapping and community tools ship free. Plus and Pro unlock map filters, shop & outing categories, and full trip workflows.
