Trade 38: Dissection kit for Rushdie and Sedaris

Bunz provides many opportunities to pick up amusing (if unnecessary) trinkets. It’s like browsing at a vast and unending flea-market, only everything is ‘free’ as long as you stick to trading away stuff you don’t want, and never spend money to effect a trade.

Come on, who wouldn’t want a spare dissection kit?! Just in case you have to dissect a frog or something in an emergency.

For this I traded an unremarkable Rushdie novel, and some David Sedaris, who is popular these days:

Mostly, I sprang for this to get hold of the two pokey-stick implements. You never know when you might need a pokey stick.

It’s fun to mix up the trades between utilitarian ‘stuff you need’ and more frivolous ‘stuff you want’. All the things you never got to play with as a kid? You can acquire it on Bunz, for next to nothing. Yes, this contributes to clutter, but at least it’s clutter you can enjoy.
