Sometimes I sit at my desk and pretend to be working. I'm not working. I'm hoping that no one will interrupt me because I'm doing a little shopping. I'm not on Amazon. I'm on the Boise Craigslist. You never know what you will find. It could be anything from a new pet to crazy employment opportunities...

Philosopher Forest Gump once said, "Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get." The same could be said of Boise's craigslist.

Swimming pools. Bidets. Bread machines. The Nintendo Switch. Home office equipment. When Idaho went on lockdown in March, these were just some of the items Idahoans were buying to make their time at home a little more comfortable.

If you search for "free stuff in Boise," be prepared for what comes back. There are a lot of people giving away things like puppies, couches, and fence panels, and if you know where to look you can score stacks of free loot.  One post says "free stuff from 60 years of living in my house."  Oh boy.
