Hello again everybody!

Last time I posted this, I was swamped with a lot of things to do, and
swamped with replies, so I apologize if I did not get back to you before.

It appears to be difficult to run an ongoing tag sale, so we'll do it the
old fashioned way!

We live at 806 E Cunningham Ave #202, Urbana. To get there, follow
Cunningham Avenue north, past Kerr Avenue. A couple of blocks north of
that, there will be a restaurant (The Longhorn Smokehouse) on your right;
you can't miss it! Immediately following that is Oakland avenue; turn
right onto it just after you pass the Longhorn Smokehouse. Follow it to
the end (about 300 ft), and turn left into the parking lot. continue
about 50 ft, and veer left again. Building #806 will be just on your
right. We are on the second floor, at the end of the hallway.

If you don't have a car, the Yellow 1N (or actually, on the weekend, the
Silver 130) will drop you off and pick you up at the Longhorn Smokehouse.

Call the MTD at 384-8188 for the schedule.

Our tag sale will be on this Saturday, the 13th, from noon until 6pm.

Make us an offer on what you want; we don't have a set price schedule.

The sale is strictly first-come, first-served, so we will not reserve
items for people who may or may not actually show up.

Here is what I originally posted:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

My fiancee and I are in the process of getting rid of everything we have
duplicates of.

We have lots of good stuff; everything from toasters, halogen lamps,
phones, clocks, answering machines, etc, to cookie sheets, other cookware
and utensils, a vacuum cleaner, down to trinkets and chachki.

There is also a wooden spice carousel rack with full bottles of spices.

A good many of the items are in nearly-new condition, or have been
well-cared for and loved, and are therefore in excellent condition.

If you're looking to buy some additions for your apartment/home/dorm
room, please check with us first; we'll cut you a great deal!

Why pay $14 for a new halogen torchiere lamp, when you can have a used
one in excellent shape for a mere $6? (The bulb alone is worth $3, and
it's brand-new)

We will supply a list of things when we have it, but for now, if you're
looking for anything that you might buy at WalMart, K-Mart, Meijer's,
etc, either drop me a line at <weitzen@physics.uiuc.edu>, or call me or
Rebecca, my fiancee, in the evening at 384-4110.

C'mon! Help support starving grad students! :-)
