One Man’s Junk…

I’d never heard of Kijiji until this week when a couple guys at work were talking about how they’d used it to, almost instantaneously, get rid of an old dishwasher and sell a car. Tonight, however, I am amazed at the power of the internet (and Kijiji specifically) to allow me to get rid of crap that I don’t want without having to go to the dump.

The site offers localized free online classifieds, which I guess basically makes it Craigslist (which I’ve never actually used, but at least know of), but slightly flashier and Web 2.0-ified. Today I used it to get rid of a stack of about 200 old LPs.

Next up:

  • 1 upright bagless vacuum
  • 4 winter snow tires+wheels (need to check the size)
  • 1 electric grill
  • 1 mismatched stereo receiver and tape deck

as well as anything else that gets in my way during my packing rampage. If anyone’s interested in any of that stuff, let me know.
