Thirteen items I have bought on eBay:
1. Video games. Buying used video games saves big money. The trick is getting the boys to wait for the package to arrive in the mail.
2. College textbooks. I was too lazy to drive to the campus bookstore. Anyway, I think I saved a few dollars this way.
3. Legoland passes. The savings was considerable.
4. Dishes. Lots and LOTS and LOTS of dishes. I wouldn't have a Harlequin collection without eBay.
5. Cell phone accessories. Cheaper than going to the Verizon store...as long as you can find a seller who doesn't charge inflated shipping fees.
6. Glow stick bracelets. I give these out at Halloween instead of candy.
7. A Genie Wireless Keypad. The boys haven't been locked out since we installed this thing.
8. Clothing. Ebay is a great way to get gently-worn designer items for a pennies on the dollar. It also beats facing disappointment when the Anthropologie sale rack has nothing cute in your size.
9. Yu-Gi-Oh cards. These are now sitting at the bottom of a drawer.
10. Pink Legos. Years ago, Kyle wanted more variety for the Lego City he was building. The city has since been dismantled, but he still has the little house I built using the pink Legos. It's now covered in dust.
11. A leaf canister for the pool. What did we ever do without this thing?
12. Vacuum cleaner filters. I couldn't find them locally.
13. A St. Joseph statue that you bury in the ground when you're trying to sell a house. And yes, it worked.
