I’ve got you covered on the phone, but I need a 150 watt tube bulb for one of my security lights. ---

I got that right here. Also 300 watt tube bulbs. Anyone got any tulip bulbs? Spring planting time is here. ---

I planted mine last fall so you can have the leftovers I didn’t have room for. Spring ain’t coming for a long time. Do you have any extra sidewalk de-icer? ---

The store I work at couldn’t give that stuff away. Here’s a 30 pound tub. I need some marijuana for (hee, hee) medical reasons. ---

Would some Maryland cookies and a bag of Cheetos do? What I need right now is a couple (well, at least two!) light bulbs (60 - 75 W)! ---

I bought a box of 12 from the thrift store for $3. They are yours. I still got the munchies. Anyone got any Whoopie Pies? ---

Here, I was able to salvage one before the little terrors (kids) got them all. Do you have a shock collar I could use for a few weeks? ---

A pre-made Easter basket I just acquired has them in it. Never was a fan(horror, I know) Come and get 'em. Breakfast out got cancelled, need sumthin’ fast, I’m starvin’. I got shredded wheat, but no milk. Who wants to be a pal and drop off some? ---

I’ve got a very large container of milk I can give you. Her name’s Bessie and I’m sure she’ll give you many gallons of milk before she’s done. Anyone have a large bullwhip so I can keep Bruno in line when he finds out Bessie’s leaving. Or a matador outfit. ---

Sure, regulation Naugahyde bullwhip comin’ up. We use 'em to keep the velociraptors in line. I find myself short of postage stamps, though. ---

I got some Carole Lombards, flags of the world, and a funny pink one with an upside-down airplane on it. Can you use any of these? My niece brought me the cold cuts remnants of her open house yesterday. Ain’t got no rolls. ---

I wasn’t sure what to do with that many but if you want 'em, they’re yours. Regular or Cinnamon Raisin? I lost the comb that was in my gym bag. ---

My store refused to sell it, but we all got free samples. Try it, but prepare to be disappointed. I’m invited to a last minute St. Patrick Day Party, but I need some shamrocks. Anyone got some? ---

Here, I swept these up after the party. You can have them all. You realize there is a reason you were invited at the last minute and told to bring something hard to get at the last second don’t you? I’m still recovering from the party. Do you have some antacids? ---

Well, I really didn’t want to go anyways. I got Alka-Seltzer, Andrews Antacid, Brioschi, Equate, Maalox liquid, Maalox tablets, Milk of Magnesia, Pepto-Bismol, Rennie, Rolaids, Tums, Mylanta, Eno, Gaviscon, Droxygel, Gelusil, and Quick-Eze. Pick your poison. Anyone got any chalk so I can write some nasty things on the sidewalk outside **Poppasan** ’s house? ---

ROLAIDS makes a great emergency chalk. I know! It was a surprise to me too. I do have some sidewalk chalk that kids left in front of my house. Nothing marked on the pavement, just the box of chalk. TRYING to organize my crafts room(Oy!) I could use another set of free-standing shelves. About 6 foot high? Plastic, preferably. Much obliged. ---
