    Holly: It works so well too. It's like a passive shopping guide.

    Oh dear. This is so embarrassing. Do I admit I'd never been to Craiglist?

    No, let's not mention it.

    Craigslist, EBay, Overstock.com and others are not sites I frequent but neat tip Maria.

    Linda: I look for the strangest things. --old motors, chicken pluckers, garage sales...


    Jackie: Unless the site puts a block on it, it works for any number of sites that update frequently. All Google Reader needs is a url.
