Now, I recommend that you proceed with caution – don’t meet the given in any dark alleys – and make sure that Free really means free – but check this out

These are some treasures on offer for Free at Craigs List New York now:

  • 6.5 ft artificial Christmas Tree in Briarwood (just in time!)
  • 30 gallon fish tank with a red slide turtle in Staten Island (hi, is this turtle big enough for a meal?)
  • 27″ GE Color TV (East Village)
  • A cat (Canarsie)

Aside from that there are a lot of matresses and futons and some people claiming to have sports tickets.

Happy shopping this weekend!

The Wall Street Journal has managed to attract a loyal online following despite charging for unlimited access.

Personally,  I would pay for unlimited access to the New York Times, either through my paper Subscription or online – I don’t think the quality of my life would be the same! I even think most people would pay to read it on their cell phones (iphones, blackberries) if they are avid readers.

The big question is how many other people feel the same way – and can put up the PayPal to prove it!

Would you pay? comment below!
