SANDY SPRINGS, Ga. — The “Tossed Out Treasures” fundraiser kicks off a St. Patrick’s Day weekend of sales with the “Spring Fling Launch Party” March 14.
The annual shopping for a cause, hosted by The Sandy Springs Society, benefits nonprofits throughout the community.
The sale runs from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Friday and Saturday, March 15-16, and from noon-3 p.m. Sunday, March 17.
First held in 1992, the event showcases the reuse of antiques, fine china, silver, glassware, designer clothing, high-end accessories, jewelry, books, upscale home decor, electronics, children’s items and more.
The event has become a must-attend for many antique and consignment retailers for items for their own retail outlets, based on the quality of goods.
The remaining merchandise is donated to area charities.

Last year, record-breaking sales raised more than $100,000.
