Craigslist Sale, Ronco Showtime Rotisserie
Hard to admit but generally I shy away from listing items on craigslist. The items have to be usually big and hard for me to ship before I take that plunge. There have been just three sales there for me; a playpen, a saxophone and today I sold a Showtime Rotisserie. I bought it at a yard sale for $5, you can read more about that here . The thing was in almost new condition and I gave it a good once over for good measure. The young woman who came with her friend to buy it could had not been more thrilled, at her luck. I hope it serves them well. There was a bit of haggling and well I accepted $40 cash for it, thats better than a sharp stick in the eye, Right?

Monday Thrift Finds
Looky at what I found; Ronco Showtime ST4000 Rotisserie and Indoor BBQ Oven. Found it at a block sale, when the young lady selling it asked for a mere $5 for it, well I just about fell over. The thing was practically brand new.
I can not tell you how many times I watched that informational and just salivated over this machine. Set it and forget it you say? If I had one of those I would roast meat everyday of the week, I thought. Let me just tell you....This here is NOT a fun item. I misunderstood how involved a gadget such as this would be. Oh my lord, it does roast an amazing chicken! But the pull this, pop that, turn here, lock there... that is just not for me. Off to the auction block with this one, I'll keep my chicken in the old roasting pan.
