Due to huge demand for appointments, the sale’s last day was canceled.
Atlanta locals were encouraged to make an appointment online to set up a time to browse through Jeff’s items, however, due to large demand, the last day of the estate sale has been canceled.
“Regrettably, Saturday, Aug. 8 — the final day of our Jeff Foxworthy estate sale – HAS BEEN CANCELLED due to the tremendous traffic the sale has generated within the Country Club of the South community. We also are unable to add additional appointments to Friday’s schedule because slots were previously filled,” the estate sale website states.
