Free: Guppy Grass (Dunning, Chicago) My Guppy grass has taken over two of my fish tanks and I'm going to trim more than half today.

First come first serve.

Free: Size 7.5 Vionic Leather Ankle Boots (Bartlett, near the library) I am offering a pair of very lightly used (worn only a once or twice) women's size 7.5 Vionic leather ankle boots. The style is Upright Sterling and the color is Saddle, a nice tan color. They have a bit of a heel and zip up on the sides. They are very nice, but I can no longer wear heels due to ankle instability. Perhaps you can enjoy these instead.

Please turn on your notifications from this site so you can receive my messages and respond in time. ***Failure to follow these simple instructions means you will not be considered.*** I live near the Bartlett Library. From a smoke-free, pet-free home.
