Craig's List Rocks!

So as of today I am now a fan of Craig's List.  Not that I wasn't really before, but I never actually bought anything before.  I found 2 great deals that I just couldn't pass up.

1)  A dryer.  

So we've never actually owned a dryer, but I decided that the next place we move into, we're not doing without!  So what have I done in the past to dry clothes?  Well some places had a washer & dryer, but mostly just hung-dried or brought to the apartment laundry room (no fun!).  So to say the least I'm ecstatic!  Anyway, the lady had it for only 3 months, moved and found she didn't have the right dryer for her new house (electric to gas).  So we got it for almost 1/2 of what they paid - SWEET!  It looks like brand new - I can't wait to use it!

2) Baby Einstein DVDs

This was yet another awesome find.  You know that 12-disc box set of Baby Einstein DVDs at Costco?  Well they cost like $100...I got it on Craig's List for $25...and they're in mint condition!  I'm stoked...my kids (yes Jonah too) LOVE Baby Einstein, so this is cool.

I just had to share and tell you all to buy/sell/wish on Craig's List...that's all.

Julie congrats on the dryer and props to you for having two kids and no dryer! I love the poem you have under your family picture, it is one of my favorites. Ben and I want to bring the kids to Disneyland sometime before we move, how close are you guys, I would love to see you.
