Like many people, I first heard of 'craigslist' from of all the headlined sex-for-sale and murders and what-not. I had pretty much written it off as a site to stay far, far away from, but when my friend told me she rented an apartment in Denver from Craigslist, and my cousin found his apartment in NY on there too, I became a little curious. I hopped on my computer one evening and started searching around to see what the hell kind of crap was listed on there for prostitutes and whatever in my neck of the woods. I did find a lot of listings for 'massages' (yeah right) and 'escorts' (yeah hmm), but I was shocked at all the NORMAL stuff posted by local peeps.
I've only bought a couple things so far, but both transactions were completely CRIME and scary-free. I've even sold stuff on craigslist! I got rid of a lot of stuff before we moved, and out of all the transactions, we had only one mildly weird dude stop by (for the kittens). Most people were average non-killing citizens just like me, looking for a bargain.
I've almost become addicted to looking at the items for sale on craigslist - it's updated constantly! I fear I'm going to miss out on some SUPER GREAT DEAL. And speaking of great deals, check out my latest one:
sand & water table with umbrella! For only $30!
So happy with his new toy!

my friend Bonnie has used CL a few times with great success. I haven't ventured....
Do you find better deals on it than ebay? No shipping then because it is fairly local??
Love the sand and water table!
I love me some Craigslist! We have gotten a ton of stuff from there, and sold a bunch too. I am always very careful, and make sure Hubby is home whenever someone is coming to pick anything up.
The sand and water table is super cool! Love it.
Ya Kel, I like it better than ebay since it's all local stuff. Sometimes you can even talk the peeps into selling for less! Check it out!
