As pictured. Retractable power cord. 12 amp Hoover wind tunnel vacuum. Can use the hose with the tools pictured. Works well. Just a bit heavy for me to carry up and down the stairs. Hoping someone can use it.

File cabinet, Anderson Hickey (Diamond Heights/Glen Park)
Anderson Hickey, 4 drawer, black file cabinet. Although not positive, I think it's a ball-bearing file cabinet which won't tip over when all drawers are open. The 4th (bottom) drawer doesn't close smoothly like the others which drives me nuts and I don't have the patience to fix it. Free. P/u afternoons/evenings (not usually available mornings). Might be able to deliver depending.

Small gift bags or boxes (about 12) (San Leandro)
Hi! Looking for about a dozen small gift bags (lunch sack size). I make little holiday goodie bags for my team and try very hard to not purchase new packaging. Unfortunately, this year, I've run out of recycled bags and acquisition has been slow. In the past, I've used small drawstring pouches (like 5" x 7" would work), paper lunch bags, small brown handle shopping bags, and gift bags. This year, I think everything could also fit in small gift/treat boxes (like around 4"x6"). If you've got anything that fits the bill (would love if they matched at least in type, e.g., all handle bags, all boxes; though 8 is a good enough number for matching), please let me know! They don't have to be in absolutely perfect condition, but please no stains/grease stains, not broken, preferably not torn. Corners can be a little banged up :) Thank you!

Star balloon (Piedmont)
Fabulous star balloon. Left over from my daughter’s birthday party. It’s lost a little of its air, but as you can see, it has held up remarkably well. It would make me happy if it could have another go-around.

TiVo HD (Newark - Cedar/Stevenson)
Circa 2007, fully functioning TiVo device. Will work perfectly with ANTENNA and CableCard …but you’re unlikely to get any cable company to pair with it. Works PERFECTLY WITH ANY OUTDOOR ANTENNA via its digital tuner. 120 hour+ capacity hard drive. Permanent, lifetime TiVo service…so there are NO FEES to use it. If you can’t provide a wired Ethernet connection, you’ll need a wireless/WiFi-to-USB “dongle” (not included..but easy to find and inexpensive) I’m hoping someone here can use it or use its parts…otherwise it’s going to an “electronics recycler”

Ikebana metal floral pin "frogs" (Sunnyvale CA)
I'd love to take any ikebana "frogs" that you have lying around that you're no longer using. I'm looking for ones that: 1) still have most of their pins, 2) are older/sturdy all-metal (not newer flimsy ones with plastic) and 3) any shape, size, and needle length. (And if you have any cool Ikebana trays/vases, those too. But mainly looking for frogs.) Thanks in advance!
