For those of you Brooklyn cognoscenti this will probably not be funny, but I found this perfectly amusing as well as practical.
While I was having dinner with my friend Becky and new acquaintance Ellen, Becky remarked how much she enjoyed Ellen’s new shoes and poked fun, inquiring “Did you get them on the street?”
My first thought, and not much of a thought really, was that she must have bought them from a vendor which line many a NYC street from time to time. Indeed, I thought wrong.
Apparently, when you have gently used items you wish to discard, it is appropriate to place said items along the sidewalk in front of your home so passersby might rummage through and walk away with a bargain.
