I negotiated a complex little deal with one of our friends/neighbors that netted $625 for the fence fund of our park conservancy and got rid of glassware that is a burden to me.
He had always admired my St. Louis crystal stemware, he has money, so I researched sale prices on eBay and offered him a smokin’ deal:$125 per stem, he gets the tax write off, and I even threw in a couple of zucchini’s (which he did not take.)
Later today I will deliver his check to the park conservancy treasurer.
win/win
