Well, this should be a fun one.  Plus I'm bored.  I dont have any pics cuz I'm too lazy to go take any, but, here we go
What have you all gotten for FREE or next to FREE??  Car or truck stuff, or just around the house stuff:
 
1.)  22" push mower, worked, needed a new cord - FREE
2.) 5HP TORO SnowBlower - FREE, needed a shaft bearing, a belt and a carb rebuild - $70 total.(Gotta love old bastards who cant fix stuff for this one.)
3.)  Riding lawnmower with a bagger-$25, needed a new battery and a new belt, the guy selling it on his driveway bought a new one, I came by at the right time, drives and cuts fine.
4.) Gas Weed Trimmer - FREE
5.) This computer I'm typing on.  A friend is a hardcore gamer, and I got his remnants of the old machine.  I put $150 into it...dual core AMD Athalon 64 X2 3800+ 2.01GHZ, 3 gigs of ram, and a GeForce 7800 HD vid card. lighted fans, and a clear sided case.
 
Lets see em, I know there are guys out there who score cool stuff for FREE or for almost no $$.
