Do you think I'd get in trouble for that if I did that in Vegas?

New Years Eve here causes quite a commotion!

Hmm... I have no way to package it.

That looks like the only investment the guy who did this in NYC had to make. Remember , The package means everything. Hmmm that could be for a lot of things.:)

they always have little tables selling trash around my subway stop.
i dont think it sells very well, tho, because its the trash from this same neighborhood, & everyone knows it.

This reminds me of the Pet Rock of many years ago.

I could almost see it if it was like $10. That would be a funny gag gift, but $100? Seriously?

Obviously, this guy has WAY too much time on his hands and people have to much money to waste!!!

He doesn't have way too much time on his hands if it's helping him earn a living.







I think it's genius.

Why do you say he has way too much time on his hands. Hey, if people are buying it, it looks like his time was well spent (no pun!).

Plus-it may have taken him 5 minutes to come up with the idea, who knows?

From The Article:

Gignac's limited edition Yankee Opening Day garbage and New Year's Eve-Times Square garbage have been popular sellers at $100 each. Trash from the 2004 Republican National Convention has not been as popular. "Due to unfavorable approval ratings I've lowered the price of Republican garbage to 50 bucks," he said.

LOL, why, Taz, are you in the market for those items?

[Broadway Bound2]

Posted: 12/24/07 at 9:34am

Those items get up in the range of $150 to $500 dollars. Just joking

Well Jane, they're harder to come by here in VA.

Haha, why did I think you live right here in the city?
