Yard goods? crossword clue
58 Down · WSJ Crossword, May 21, 2026 · 3 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Yard goods?” is SOD. It appears as 58 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of May 21, 2026, a Thursday puzzle titled “I Could Go Either Way” by Jeff Stillman, and it fills 3 squares running top to bottom from row 13, column 1 of the 15×15 grid.
The question mark at the end of the clue signals wordplay: the surface reading is a misdirection, and the answer fits a punning or figurative sense of the words. The entry begins with S and ends with D, and contains 1 vowel and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Thursday puzzles lean harder on misdirection, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
