There's a section on Craigslist called FREE, where most people list things they need gone, usually where it'll otherwise be thrown away. I posted my couch, as I'll be getting a new one in my new place, and because I wanted to ensure someone took it, I enticed the offer with $15 cash as well.
Well, some jerkface emailed me this:

| ok so you are wanting someone to come to your house, take your trash and you will pay them $15? Is the gist of it? Probably spend more money in gas than it is worth, cause your lazy azz can not take it out yourself.........c'mon.....throw your own trash away |
Has this person ever seen all the other FREE craigslist classifieds?? Others just want someone to haul off their useless belongings...I went a step further and threw in a bit of cash, and I get some idiot flaming me. Ugh I should spam her email lol (just kidding
).
I posted my response to her in my ad thanking her for her opinion (lol), and someone else emailed me this:

Hello, I wanted to let you know...that some people do appreciate free things on Craig's list. So please don't let one person spoil it for you. You made a very kind gesture...and some people need a helping hand and free things...in this economy! God bless you!

So now I feel a little bit better.
