Colorado woman selling snow on eBay – reports the AP:
“Starting bids were holding steady Friday at 99 cents for snow from “Blizzard I and Blizzard II” being offered by Mary Walker. She and husband, Jim, got the idea for selling snow after shoveling mounds from two storms a week apart that together dumped more than 4 feet along the Front Range.”
This is hilarious – and it’s not even April 1st
. I looked up the actual eBay bid – low and behold, the current bid amount is $56, $77 $102.50 and the bid was viewed 8968 times.
This gave me the idea: so many people are unfortunate, stuck in cold climate, while I’m walking around in spring-like sunny California. I think I’m gonna put up a few bags of warm air for sale on eBay.
Note: despite rumors, the Golden Gate Bridge is not for sale.
Update (12/31): Here’s another interesting item to buy: dehydrated water. 


Back during Web 1.0, as a lark, I created the Free Air Club (www.freeairclub.com), where you could get shipments of free air each month (shipping and handling a modest $4.95). I actually sold a number of subscriptions, though all eventually cancelled after they tired of receiving strips of bubble wrap in the mail!
Was it fragile that you needed bubble wrap?:)
Seriously, I really wonder what your total revenue was ….
We could sell both warm air AND snow – even at this time of the year. The benefits of living in Andalucia I guess.
