I just answered an awesome CL ad for free craft supplies. She mentioned in the ad that she wanted to donate leftover crafts supplies from summer camp to a home daycare and answered my email. She is an unemployed teacher that had eight large boxes containing approx $200 worth of stuff that she wanted out of her house. She just lives a couple miles from me which was a plus and when I got the eight LARGE boxes home and started to go through them there is probably more like $400 worth of crafts and two boxes of books. Kids are excited and I'm totally geeked.

Just had to share....usually I'm the one that just missed the big deal. Maybe I should go buy a lottery ticket, hmmm?

Wow, what a generous lady. I'd be looking for a way to pay it forward in some way. That woman has a big heart, and lucky you for being on the receiving end!
