So we have a local broadcast message site at work and as I was perusing the past weeks messages when I came upon this one which I thought was hilarious. This was written on a Tuesday. Name/phone number has been deleted.

Guinea Pigs – The Gift that keeps on Giving – Free! Free! Free!
Date/Time: Until Mission Complete
Location: You Decide - We’ll Deliver

Message:

Purchased a guinea pig for our son, and after returning home one weekend discovered that we had been sold four for the price of one. Therefore, we have one male remaining (no worry on your part about receiving the same bill of goods as we received), needing to go to a good home.

Just think of the joy your child or adult will have when you give them a guinea pig as a gift for their birthday, or even T.G.I.F day! The occasion doesn’t matter, the smile on their face and the fact that it does not require a shovel to clean up after them is gratitude enough. So, if you want a pet that is beautiful, doesn’t bark, will delight your child for hours, and most of all is FREE, contact me at x-xxxx.

P.S. – Item, thing, animal, is given AS-IS with no implied or explicit warranty.

1. Quite funny! They’re really trying to “sell” it, but it’s given away AS-IS.
