Every mid-August, the village of Chey hosts its annual garage sale, an outdoor gathering that brings together bargain hunters and families from southern Deux-Sèvres. This event, organized by commune volunteers, is part of the tradition of countryside garage sales that enliven villages during the summer period.
The Chey garage sale offers a typical range of private sellers' goods. Exhibitors, residents of the village and neighboring communes, display the classics: clothing for adults and children, toys, board games, paperback books, crockery, small furniture, DIY tools, ornaments, and decorative objects. Prices are generally very attractive, and bargaining is part of the fun.
