Thanks, Here is what I have:

1. Vacuum cleaner

3. Mop and bucket

4. Lawnmower

5. Leaf blower

6. Laundry detergent

7. Iron & Ironing board.

8. Toilet brush

9. Pooper scooper

10. Cleaning rags

11. Dusters

12. Garbage Bags

Serious offers only please & I hope you can help me in my time of need. Happy holidays!

Jim, You might try market place, shipping is gonna be a real show stopper for us international folks.

I see a lot of cooking channels on youtube that make money with 1000's of views.
The really big ones normally feature a rather attractive young lady doing the cooking.

You might try that with cleaning. But if you really need the money, you may have to show a little skin...

Jim, I think you are making a lethal and life altering mistake getting rid of the ironing board. I'm here to plead with you to come to your senses!

Don't you realize how vital that thing could be in a guitar operation emergency? What if the dining room table or the bench is full of other instruments? What then? Save the ironing board! It could save lives man! Think of the instruments! Think of the children!

am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your
souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light."

You know, it's too bad Jim only posted this recently. Just a bit earlier I had already bought a toilet brush. To make a long story short, I'm going back to using toilet paper.

TonyKgull,

That bought back memory's of when I was a kid, toilet paper was none existing, we used any paper we could get our hands on Newspaper, tissue paper, wall paper and sand paper, the first toilet roll I can remember was call something like San Izal it was like waterproofed grease proof paper , them was the good old days.

Love it TonyKgull. You wouldn't want to buy a used toilet brush if that's how you use 'em.

Derick, That reminds me of the year I spent hitch-hiking around Ireland, Scotland, England & Wales in 1968/69. I thought that everyone overseas used that non-absorbent toilet paper that came in single sheets with, "Now please wash your hands," or "Property of City of Bath," printed on each sheet like the TP in youth hostels and public washrooms.
When I stayed for a bit over a month in one household, I was pleased to find that they used regular rolls of TP and the other stuff was not used by everyone.

No Sears catalogs or corn cobs?

Chic Sale wrote a book called The Specialist, about a carpenter named Lem Putt who decided to specialize in out houses. We have a copy of this book beside our toilet. Here's a short excerpt where Lem is talking to a customer about their outhouse.

"Now, about her furnishin's. I can give you a nail or hook for the catalogue, and besides, a box for cobs. Youtake your pa for instance: he's of the old school and naturally he'd prefer the box; so put 'em both in, Elmer. Won't cost you a bit more for the box and keeps peace in the family. You can't teach an old dog new tricks," I sez.

"And as long as we're on the furnishin's, I'll tell you about a technical point that was put to me the other day. The question was this: "What is the life, or how long will the average mail order catalogue last, in just the plain, ordinary eight family three holer?' It stumped me for a spell; but this bein' a reasonable question I checked up, and found that by placin' the catalogue in there, say in January -- when you get your new one -- you should be into the harness section by June; but, of course, that ain't through apple time, and not countin' on too many city visitors, either.

"An' another thing -- they've been puttin' so many of those stiff colored sheets in the catalogue here lately that it makes it hard to figger. Somethin' really ought to be done about this, and I've thought about takin' it up with Mr. Sears Roebuck hisself."

Buy the time I came to be, the catalogs where all in slick coated magazine paper, none of them where good for that.
My grandparents operated an outhouse till I was 9 years old. The old house burnt down that winter and they bought a brand new Hollipark Mobile home with Indoor plumbing!
They kept the outhouse up for several years, just in case the new well might run dry, it never did...

I know more than one feller that has used a sock in the deep woods when push come to shove.

Most of the time a feller can find a leaf or three to do the job, but you need to know a little about what leafs you CAN NOT use...
