Remember I told you that I cleaned out my closet? Well, there was a ton of things I didn't want anymore. I bagged it up and put an ad on Craigslist.
The ad read:
[Title] Plus Size Women's Clothing sz 16-20 + 2 pair of boots.
[AD] Lots of nice and very gently worn clothing. I have a stuffed black garbage bag full plus 2 pairs of black boots. One pair is knee high suede - the other pair are ankle high leather. Priorty given to the person that can pick up soon. Tonight is garbage night and I hate to throw these great clothes away. No questions, take the entire bag and please show up if you say you will. 14/Northwestern area. Please be able to use Mapquest. Thanks!
Easy right? I came home and checked my e-mail and had over 50 replies. I opened every single e-mail to see who would need the clothes the most. 48 of the e-mails had a question when I specifically said "NO QUESTIONS." One lady asked "where are you located?" The posting said 14/Northwestern area. I deleted all of the e-mails and gave the clothes to one woman that said "I am starting a new job and cannot afford to buy new clothes. I live by the zoo. I can throw my kids in the car and be right over. I don't care what size the boots are because I'm desperate."
I put the clothes on the porch for her to pick up. If I see one article of my clothing on Ebay I'm knocking on all the doors by the zoo and kicking some ass.

Very nice! I'm sure you helped that lady a lot and that is great!
But one question: how do you expect someone to pick up the clothes from your house if all they know is 14 and Northwestern and you won't answer their question??!
I drove around for hours and couldn't find you. I think I can wear that size.
Test.
