Craigs List Barter - How I Got My House AC Checked - For Free
Thanks Gordon,
After talking to my Dairy Farmer Neighbors who were bartering
with deer hunters - to get their Cow Barn Manure Cleared out AND their
fence line WeedWacked - in Return for Hunting Privileges.
I went on Craigs list
and found this...
*******************
"Hi I'm a licensed Hvac Tech and am looking for property to deer hunt on starting in September. Can barter my A/c services or pay cash or BOTH. very serious about finding a nice piece of woods to hunt. Respectful veteran. Let me know if we can work something out. Thanks!! Text is preferred. Jerry"
*******************
----------
We Traded emails.
Then I called him.
Jerry is a Retired Army Vet who loves to hunt.
When I called he was down on the Eastern Shore of Maryland
hunting Turkeys.
-----------
Anyway...
A - We agreed to meet when he gets back.
B - I told him we literally have HERDS of deer all over the place
C - Jerry has agreed to Check out my House AC System. And look at some
50 yr old pipes and water fixtures that are dripping.
(EDITORS NOTE - Call any HVAC or plumbing company. The bill from a Plumber
6 months back was over 800 Smackers. A simple leak but he didn't have the
right size pipe. So the bill got huge.)
A DOUBLE Win for me too.
Cuz I've been looking for hunters I can TRUST not to shoot holes in the
roof or the house. AND who can thin out the local deer herd.
Even the fawns think I am planting Vegetables for THEM.
(How do I know what ate the tops off my collards or Tomatoes? Tiny pointed feet in the mud.)
Thanks,
Glenn
