Office Chairs Barter

Trade Number Two is a success! Check out what I got for the bottle of mustard:



Do me a favor in ignoring the cluttered garage.



Thanks a million bajillion to Diane Koh for her generous barter of two office chairs! Despite the cheezy fabric, they are basically brand new! Dad figures they could sell together for $50 at a garage sale. But he's a salesman. Of course he's going to overprice things =)

You know you want them!!

Oh, and my economics teacher sat me down to have a little chat about the "rules." So I'll relay them to you:

1. Keep it "Pinewoodian." At Pinewood we like to think of ourselves as well-rounded, insightful and critically-thinking, self-motivated, clear-communicating, respectful individuals of character (seriously. how preppy is that?). So if your offer does not live up to our standards it is a NO GO!
2. The school and the parentals have complete VETO power.
3. If I get any strange offers (including but not limited to: virginity, body parts, and one's soul) I will REPORT YOU! To whom I have no idea yet...

And... ya. Thanks for humoring me with this silly project everybody!!!

Yellow Mustard Barter...

Trading has commenced! Thanks very much to the wonderful Hayley Atwood for the generous offer of a bottle of mustard for the bobby pin.



So. A bottle of mustard. Traditional Yellow Mustard...



Today is Super Bowl Sunday and we're having a semi-large party at my house. So I'm attempting to keep the mustard safe and away from anybody's mouth. But anyways...

You know you want to trade for it!
