I cleaned out my garage 2 nights ago to make room for something here in the next few days... (more details on that to follow!)

I called the Salvation Army to donate my items through their "At Home Pick-up" service. I scheduled an appointment for Thursday (10/2) and had everything outside on my driveway that morning before I left for work. For some reason though, everything was still there when I got home. Weird, so I called them this morning to find out the "Dallas" Salvation Army branch doesn't cover Denton, but that the Fort Worth branch does. Uhhh GENIUS!!! WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME THAT WHEN I MADE THE APPOINTMENT! (Can you see my frustration?)

So I decided I would take things another route, namely Craigslist!

After lunch, I made a post on Craigslist simply stating "First person to respond who can pick it up today gets everything they want." I was a bit nervous, as I didn't want to move things in and out all weekend, or worst of all, have to rent a truck to take it to the dump. (I really won't have room for it after this weekend.)

To my suprise, and delight, I had 6 people respond within 10 minutes of me posting! I was so baffled, that I had to actually go through the trouble of creating a time table to improve my odds of getting rid of everything. Person A has until 7PM tonight (which I think they will make because they were very excited!), Person B has until 8AM tomorrow, and so on.

Thank You Craigslist for solving my dilemma! AWESOME!
