Only a Hippie Would Be Excited About This
RYS: Ramstein Yard Sales
Basically Craig's List in the States... but set up specifically for the Kaiserslautern Military Community. I bought our area rug for $50. I never really used Craig's List much, but my understanding is that they work about the same. Someone lists something they're selling, you buy (or offer lower ;o) as I typically do) and usually go pick it up yourself. Bingo. Cheap deals :o)
I scored this AMAZING laundry drying rack for $10! And she threw in about forty wooden clothespins, too! It's metal, folds up nicely, and can hold at least a load and a half of laundry, maybe two if I'm careful with space. So now I can more easily hang dry our clothes (don't need to worry about the weather, as it's been overcast/rainy a lot), even in the winter! As you can see, it's pretty big. Good thing my laundry room is huge, too!
We'll put the money saved into our "travel Europe" fund :o)
I love it!!! When I grow up and have time and space to be hippified then I shall have one too. ;)-Cassie
ReplyDelete*chuckles* "when I grow up" :o) Are we ever gonna grow up? Gosh I hope not! (But space and time are definitely issues... and I look forward with you till when you can be more of a hippie!)
