Categories: Priceless

Someone in Brooklyn Heights needs to get rid of a life-size copy of Michelangelo's Pieta, which was, unsurprisingly, an impulse buy by the seller's granny:

Priceless: A Hipster Cooler

Categories: Priceless

Audience Participation: What makes a cooler "hipster"?

From the craigslist Free Board:

Styrofoam box/hipster cooler (Upper East Side)
I have a large (about 21" x 14" x 15") styrofoam box originally used to ship Omaha Steaks. I'd rather not see it go to the landfill, and it still has life in it for someone who wants to use it for shipping or storage or as a cooler. It can be picked up from my doorman.

Priceless: Free Mid-Century Armchairs

Categories: Priceless


Last week, I brought you Jewish vagina rags, and I'm sure that was a very useful find, but I've decided to also point out free gems that are not a total joke, like the arm chairs below, because I love you. If you're willing to risk bed bugs and cooties, generally, craigslist's free board can be your ticket to surprisingly nice shit. I have often asked hip store owners where their couches came from, or their vintage desks, and heard it was all free. Meanwhile, my lazy ass is still watching TV on the armchair that was in my bedroom in high school. Thanks, Mom.
