The "One Man's Trash..." Free Giveaway
I acquire a lot of stuff. What with the constant trips to thrift shops, flea markets and second-hand stores. With an interest in most things geeky and strange. With my occasional bouts of poor impulse control. I own way more than I need and with a potential move on the horizon, that sorta' needs to change. Naturally, my loss is someone's gain. Pictured above is a mailing box, measuring 14x10x5.5, and it is loaded up with stuff: comic books and DVDs, outdated party supplies and children's books. Oh, and lots of small toys and collectibles.
I want to give it away to someone and that someone could be you.
If you've somehow stumbled upon this blog, then I think the contents of this box are going to appeal to you. It's a nice mix of 80's/90's/00's pop culture, covering a wide variety of brands, and the best part is that it's absolutely free. All you have to do is leave a comment. I'm not asking anyone to follow the blog, but if you really wanted to, well, that would be very appreciated.
Or don't! Leave a comment demanding free stuff! Reminisce about the time you ran into your ex at the supermarket! List your Top Ten favorite episodes of Frasier! Tell me to stop trying to bribe people for attention! It honestly doesn't matter what you say in the comments below; you will be entered into the drawing and you will maybe possibly win a box full of junk.
FREE JUNK.
Plus, think of how few people are actually gonna see this. You will have such great odds. You may already be a winner.
I'll randomly pick that winner next Tuesday at 8PM, so you have a week's time to imagine what other ridiculous, trash-treasures lurk within the box. And thanks for checking out the blog!

You gimme that box or I'll gut you like that shark that wasn't really JAWS from JAWS. The one with the boot and the license plate and the tricycle wheel in it's belly.
ReplyDeleteThat's not a threat... that's a promise. You need to stop eating boots and license plates and tricycle wheels. You're like a goat. I'm afraid for your welfare.
I have no idea where this is going.
Son, you better recognize that I eat tricycle wheels for breakfast and can dispense cold, no-fisted shark justice by night.
DeleteHa! This is fun! And I totally just got that Jaws reference! I forgot about that grody non-Jaws shark with all the milk blood. So grody.
ReplyDeleteMilk blood = gross.
DeleteOne of the things I wanted to do with this blog was to start hosting contests and stuff, getting a little more involved with the entire "blogging" community. I appreciate how you and others have made me feel welcome with leaving comments and "chatting" on Twitter. It means a lot to me.
Well I know sometimes I get behind on comments and stuff, but I am really glad to be reading your stuff. And I love talking whenever I can. I will talk to you later!
DeleteFree stuff. Also I hated Frasier.
ReplyDeleteNice blog by the way and welcome to the Extraordinary League of Bloggers!
Thanks!
DeleteI've enjoyed contributing to the League so far. Definitely helps fuel posts here, which I need sometimes. Hope you enjoy the blog and thanks again for commenting!
Nice! That's very kind of you! I'd love to have this box of junk!
ReplyDeleteWell, now you've got a shot at winning. Thanks so much for taking the time to comment and to check out my blog!
DeleteYou had me at FREE JUNK. I only recently discovered the awesomeness that is this blog, but I have to say that I am thoroughly enjoying tearing through your previous posts. Carry on.
ReplyDeleteGlad that you're liking the blog so far. I hope to maintain the mediocre level I've achieved so far, so that you never ever leave.
DeleteLikewise, I've been checking out your "Threes" blog and love the concept and execution. Total zeitgeist that I also watched Stoker (2013) recently [yesterday, in fact] and quite enjoyed it.
Thanks!
DeleteThanks to THIS BLOG RIGHT HERE I just went and checked out a couple of your blogs, and they are right up my alley! I like the focus that Threes brings to the subject matter, even though the subject matter can be completely random. Excellent idea. And I will now be following Mario everywhere he goes. Have you ever participated in the League of Extraordinary Bloggers? I don't remember it if so, (with apologies) but if not you totally should!
DeleteAny box with Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow in plain view intrigues me. Count me in.
ReplyDeleteI may have purposely positioned them on the top to lure in unsuspecting participants. The rest of the box could be used batteries and empty bottles of Pepsi Blue. You will just have to find out by winning, no?
DeleteScrew the Joes... I just want those party cups with... whoever that is... on them! And the party hats. I'm cracking that s**t open and wearing those.
DeleteIn honor of San Diego I give you top 5 SDCC acronym other than San Diego Comic Con (and yes, would love to have a box of stuff)
ReplyDelete1. Seattle Dogfish Casting Club
2. Strange Days Cello Convention
3. Software Developers Collecting Code
4. Santo Domingo Cape Convention
and last but not least
5. Some Dude Counting Cats.
Love the blog, thanks!
Somber Day Catching Chiggers.
DeleteSDCC is a sore spot for me, because I've wanted to go for years now and probably never will. I'll have to be content to hang out at home and read write-ups and tweets and grr, argh.
But thanks for checking out the blog and commenting!
I'll probably never make it a SDCC either, that's why you can just join me at a Conference of Evil or something. ; )
DeleteFree stuff? I like free stuff!
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the League too!
I just wanted to thank you for the comment and the follow. I've been enjoying your blog for a while now and it's nice to feel welcomed into the League like you and others have with me.
DeleteAlso, hey, always nice to hear from someone else who remembers WLVI 56's Creature Double Feature. I was really young and don't remember it as well as say, TBS' Super Scary Saturdays, but it's still a nice memory.
Yeah, the League is a great thing! I've met quite a few other like minded bloggers through it. It's a good way to connect and find new blogs to check out.
