Catfood (UWS 94/Columbus) 8d - 18 cans of Friskies Paté Liver and Chicken Dinner; after years, my cats now reject it. For the record, they're standard 5.5-ounce cans, eat-by date 12-2025. Yum!

Repost: Business card tray (UWS 94/Columbus) 17d - The solution to random piles of business cards. We made this tray to fit a standard (?) desk drawer. It is 15-3/4" wide, 11-5/8" deep and 3-3/4" high, with a floor just the right height for easy access to standard 2-inch-high cards. It holds a gazillion cards, actual count. Alphabetical dividers included, but not the cards; that's your department.

Business card trays (UWS 94/Columbus) 32d - The solution to random piles of business cards. We made these two trays to fit a standard (?) desk drawer.

Alphabetical dividers included, but not the cards; that's your department.

Classical LPs (UWS 94/Columbus) 48d - Posting this for a friend: Exact count not available, but there are a lot of classical LPs—around 100-200, in moving boxes in an elevator building in the Lincoln Center area. They're in good condition. You must take them all.

Wooden dining table curbside (UWS 94/Columbus) Expired 91d - See the pic. This table is in front of 110 W. 94th Street, as of Thursday afternoon 1-18-24. I didn't measure it, but it looks like about 50" diameter. It looks like it divides for the addition of extensions, but there were none with it. Also, the matching dresser, which you see the back of, is in not good shape; I couldn't make the drawers slide, and there are various dings. You'll need a van and two people to wrestle the table into it.

Furniture leg floor protectors (UWS 94/Columbus) Gifted 164d - I ordered 16 small; they sent 32 large. These really work, once the proper ones arrive—the chairs now slide silently where before they made awful noises. The trick is getting the size right, so it goes on and stays on; see the pic for dimensional info.

Cuisinart coffee filters, plus (UWS 94/Columbus) Expired 299d - Two brand-new filters. Plus… The Cuisinart folks aren’t so good with telephone orders, so I am left with some wrong filters, which they didn’t want back. They are: 3 Cuisinart Model GTF-4 gold tone filters, new, marked for their DCC-450 coffeemaker Non-Cuisinart: 1 Finum Coffee Star No. 4 filter, new In searching for the correct filter I also accumulated the following. I don’t know which make or model they work with, but they're NOT for the four Cuisinart models DCC-1000/1100/1200/2600. They are: 2 Flat-bottom filters, no identifying marks or packaging. These look like they’ve been used a bit, but close to new. They’re just a little smaller around than the Coffee Star No. 4. Plus, three Cuisinart water filter holders, brand new, in packaging marked ‘for DCC-2800.' OK to take only what you need.

Eight pounds(!) of greeting cards (UWS 94/Columbus) Gifted 1y - …including of course an envelope for each. Every charity in the world seems to send greeting cards with their fund appeals; This is exactly a year's worth( ! again!) Many seasonal, many not. All tasteful, some with holiday greetings, some blank inside. Quite an assortment. And <none> contain appeals from their charity, which is only named in small print on the back (when it is), instead of 'Hallmark' and a price. If my third-grade teacher had had these we wouldn't have had to make our own. Maybe she did, and just sent them to the other teachers; we'll never know.
