Craigslist is a great place to buy used (sometimes new) baby gear.
I wanted to get a monitor to keep at my parents house instead of paying full price for something that will be used sparingly. I found an ad on craigslist, contacted the seller, agreed on a time to meet, and do the exchange. Fabulous.
The list price was $10. I went to Starbucks this morning and paid in cash with one of my 2 10 dollar bills. I got to the lady's house, opened my wallet, found that one of my supposed $10s was actually a $20 bill. Oops. So, now I have a $20 and $6. I tell her as much, she checks to see if she has change. Nope, sure doesn't. Ok, I offer her the $6. She refused it.
Lady, your lame monitor has been on craigslist for over 2 months. You weren't prepared with change, and now you're going to blow the sale over $4? Your loss crazycakes.
