Craigslist Cheat Link

CheapHilda — Wed, 19 Jan 2011 23:04:06 +0000

I have come up with a great little trick for Craiglist.

Click HERE to get a listing of the latest items to be posted on Craiglist that are priced under $100.

You can find tons of deals with this little link.

What’s the catch or big deal you may say? Why can’t I just go and do my own search?

With this search link you get a very good list from multiple topics that are priced under $100. What this link does for you is remove most of the annoying garbage you would normally find. Most of the cell phones, auto parts, sports tickets, and commercial vendors are removed the the listings.

Yes, you won’t see everything and every so often a treasure might be missed, but I would rather see 90% of the good stuff and miss 10% of items so that 80% of the garbage is left out.

Enjoy.
