Vintage Toy Guns, Free Wasps and Republican Beanie Baby

This week's Best of Craigslist features fun for the whole family!

 

This week, our "Best of Craigslist" features some items for sale, including a lava lamp and a toy gun collection. For free, choose between a shed or a wasp nest. Also, one of the missed connections we stumbled upon features a woman who clearly didn't feel so well at the bar in Milford last week.

After 25 years, he lets go of his guns

David in Westborough has owned and collected toy guns for more than 25 years, and he's ready to part with them. Twelve of these guns have working, movable parts. There are ten pistols, one rifle, two charm sized and a machine gun. For the whole lot (14 guns), he's asking $125. Bang!

Righty 2000 is still in the case

Another Westborough resident is selling an official Republican elephant TY Beanie Baby with the name "Righty 2000." This Beanie, born July 4, 2000, is still in the clear plastic case and the tag says, "On and on the race will go on, who will win we just don't know, no matter how this all will end, you will alway be my friend." It's $15.

Not sure how well the Queen Bee is doing

Do you love wasps? How about a whole nest of them? This family, which asks that question, in the MetroWest area has a wasp nest in their kitchen, and before calling Orkin, wants to give you the opportunity to take them off their hands for free. "They are paper wasps, in excellent flying condition. Very intelligent as they seemed to have figured out a way from the wall into our kitchen, although not so intelligent as to have found a way back out. I have not seen the queen personally, so I cannot attest to her condition."

Your candy man awaits, as long as you can prove your interaction

If you were shopping in the candy aisle at the Framingham Walmart on Oct. 2, your love is awaiting. A Framingham man posted that a "cute woman" was shopping with a friend in the candy aisle. You passed a few words with this gentleman, and went your separate ways. "If you see this, say something specific about our interaction, what we said, what I was wearing, etc. Hope to hear from you!"

Did you throw up into a glass of wine recently? This guy still wants to take you out.

"I saw you at the bar last Friday." The bar was in Milford, or the man is in Milford. Either way, the only other specifics to this "missed connections" post include that, "You were sitting next to me. You leaned your face in towards mine and threw up in my drink. You were so hot, I almost didn't mind that you ruined my expensive wine. I'd love to take you out some time."

Shedding a shed

Not a bad deal. If you can pick it up, a person in Northborough is getting rid of an 8x10 red shed that is in pretty decent condition.

Heat up the green goo to set the mood

A person in Shrewsbury is ready to let go of the '70s. This lava lamp with green goo is in perfect condition and can be yours for $10.
