God bless Craigslist! Checking Craigslist everyday is kind of like playing the lottery everyday (except checking Craigslist costs you nothing)-most of the time you're going to get skunked, but there are those rare occasions when it all pays off. I've seen my share of ads on CL for "Free tree-just cut it down so that it falls within the 10 foot wide alley between my house and my neighbor's house," and "FREE PINE Wood is located 500 feet from the road in poison ivy patch..." This haul was a dream-nice fireplace length oak neatly stacked in the driveway-backed the truck right up and went to town. If only I had stake sides (and no toolbox ) I could have grabbed the entire load!
