Craigslisting (Totally Unrelated to Running)

As many of you know...or don't know...I am kind of a craigslisting junkie. I have a bit of an obsession that actually clears my family about $600 cash a month. Any whoo.......I wanted to share some of the things I see on there that intrigue me....mind you these are just posts from today, if I had a week or so to put this together I could really show you something!

For sale 1- Environmental Plant Growth Chamber. I bought this from Texas A&M University. The unit is in great shape,, A&M stated that it worked when removed from service. It's not hooked up to power, so I cant demo nstrate functionability. With that being said item is sold as is with No Warranty. Here is the company website with all of the specs. It is the GC - 15 Model....http://www.egc.com/prod_gc_series.php This unit has adjustable lighting that raises up and down. When fully installed and hooked up the unit will control temperature, humidity and water the plants. Touchpad control screen and keyboa rd included for setup. I will not respond to emails so if your interested call 512-507-140 7... $ 2200.00 or best offer...

Hmmmm...seems kind of like an expensive way to grow some pot indoors, but pretty cool it waters the plants for you!

Very effective toxin release machine. Just put the device in with your foot bath. And it will suck all the toxins out of your body through your feet. It really works. The water will turn black. It really makes you feel good cleansing your system. 512 507 4739

WOW...this scares me....you are supposed to put this ELETRICAL machine in your footbath (I don't even know what a footbath is, but assuming a bathtub??) and the water turns black from the toxins....hmmm...crazy, and slightly expensive! Who is willing to try this one?

HORSE QUALITY ALFALFA HAY. ******(512) 800-1576******

Each bale weighs 1122.72# each. Per ton price is $320.00. 12 bales available at this posting.

In all seriousness this is my most wanted item right now. Not only is coastal hay hard to come by right now because of this drought, but alfalfa is great....it's filling with more protein so the ponies eat less and sustain their weight more...It's just so expensive here in Texas!

  1. Oooooh, I did not know Craig's List has a free section! I'll have to check it out. :) I've been more of a Ebay junkie but will have to start looking at Craig's List as well...it will at least provide humor if nothing else. Small bouncing balls??

  2. I love the free section.. but since I got rid of my truck, I have to stay away... otherwise I'm all "Oooo must.get.now!"

    I plan to furnish the future ranch house with CL's free section... that's my goal :)
