Shoe rack and bench (Near the experimental farm)
Got this for my mom when she comes over so she would have a spot to sit and put on her boots. But it's too low for her: 19" high 2 feet wide by 1 foot depth Let me know if you want the little package of slippers underneath. They are very thin slippers but handy if you have nothing, like guests who prefer not to go in their socking feet. 😀 Also, this was kindly gifted to me last summer. I spray painted it white. This is probably a good base for you to get creative...

Petgreens cat treats for digestion (Dow’s Lake)
Recently acquired. Salmon flavour treats with wheatgrass. The package has maybe half a dozen removed. Unfortunately my cat seems not at all interested in eating them, though they are excellent for floor hockey. Fair warning, they’re a bit smelly.

Electric Kettle (Civic Hospital)
Slightly defective (see below) Russel-Hobbs electric kettle to give away. Auto shut-off, lighted button, 1.7 litre capacity. Works very well. The kettle part lifts off the powered base so you need not worry about the power cord when pouring the hot water. The Kettle part sits on the base and when the button on the kettle is pressed, the base supplies power to the kettle to boil the water. The kettle may be freely rotated on the base. The defect is that for one 30 degree portion of the 360 degree rotation, the base makes intermittent contact with the kettle and the water does not heat up quickly. When the kettle is rotated out of this band, the kettle works fine. We have been using this for well over a year with the defect by just being careful to avoid the defective area. This is likely something that a squirt of contact cleaner or a little emery cloth on the contacts on the UNPLUGGED base and kettle will resolve.

Sperry duffle bag (Experimental Farm)
Good size Sperry duffle bag in good condition. Zipper works, shoulder strap is solid. The only slight issue is that the plastic liner has one 6 inch tear. Duct tape could take care of this easily. Rip shown in pics. It's wrinkled because it was in the back of my closet. Pick up on Attwood Cres

silicone cup for massage therapy (Britannia)
Promised
A physiotherapist used one of these on my arthritic knee, and it seemed to help – so I bought my own version. It came in a pack of two, and this one is too large for that particular spot – I've never used it. (If you want to know how this thing works, just Google it. FYI, the pic showing a whole bunch of them is just for reference – I only have one to give away!)

blue cushion (Britannia)
Approx. 20" square, originally from IKEA. Used to be on my deck, until I switched furniture; now it's just hanging around. The cover removes for washing, and it's rather faded from sun and rain – I was thinking of redyeing it, but can't be arsed!

Osterizer Blender (Ottawa)
Still works - great for soups and softer things, but motor is slow and fighting back so maybe not great for frozen or harder mixtures.

Training Potty (Ottawa)
Potty training? This potty can also be placed on the real toilet itself. Or use the bottom half of it as a very solid step stool. Full disclosure, the hinge is broken on one side but this does not prevent it from doing its principal job - just a bit harder to detach regularly.
