                    Parts from garden hose reel (Rockville)
                 
        Expired
     
                    It's very old and broken, and would take heroic efforts to repair it. Does anyone have a use for the parts?

        Expired
     
                    I'm looking for a gauge that is precise, easy to read, and easy to use. Does anyone have a spare one that you don't need?

                    It hasn't been used in years, and I don't have the car anymore. But I think if you collect enough of these, they can be worth something in recycling value. Maybe?

                    They seem to work, but they're not compatible with my Verizon box. Apparently not all remotes are interchangeable. Take one or both. Each one needs 2 AA batteries.

                    It could use a cleaning and/or painting. Originally the slats were connected by two pieces of strapping, which kept the slats from shifting out of position, but that's gone now, so I added some extra slats from another bed frame so that the slats won't move around.

                    They're embossed with a corporate label. However the labeling has come off on one of the glasses, so perhaps it could be removed from the others if you wanted to try.

        Expired
     
                    It's similar to a weekly pill taker box, but it only has 3 sections. It's about 5.5 inches by 1.5 inches. It seems like it might be useful for something, but I don't actually have a use for it. There are some walls inside each compartment which could be inconvenient if meds were stored in it. And there are small holes in each top and bottom -- not large enough for a pill to go through, but it means that it's neither air-tight nor water-tight.

                  Gifted  
                    Plate is 11 inches in diameter and in great condition. It came from a Sharp brand, Carousel model that was 12 years old. It may or may not work with other brands or models or years. The bottom of the plate has 3 "teeth" in the center that mesh with the rotating gear inside the microwave. Most microwaves seem to have this kind of setup, but the exact sizes and shapes of the teeth and gear can vary.
