[Highland Park] Xtra large tank / 'Classic' TV set
by Rebecca Ridge 06 Mar '14

06 Mar '14

Greetings! I am assisting my parents in emptying out their second floor/ attempting to quash their hoarding habits. There are quite a few materials in their possession that never were/are/will be used and, after a lot of time and discussion, they have seen the light and decided to give them to a better home. ie. You will be seeing a lot from me. 1. So far, I have a very very large glass fish/reptile tank/aquarium. 200 gallons to be precise. 60inches wide x 30inches back/depth x 24inches high. It sits cozily on a wooden cabinet. My father has informed me that it is a very good quality, expensive piece of equipment that any fish/ Komodo dragon/ large rodent lover would want to own. We'll even throw in the ornamental driftwood habitat accessory! It goes for upwards of $3000, but around $800 would be sufficient. I know it's a high price in general, but it's a great piece and someone who actually wants it/ has a need for it would understand the great deal. 2. Second, is a very large 32inch television set. It was my grandmother's Panasonic birthday present ($500+, a classic model). Honestly, money isn't really a thing with it, we just don't want to throw it away and GOODWILL won't take it. It is outdated but a beaut. $50 for a 32inch. Enjoy, you will be hearing from me soon, and I am looking forward to your responses. Thank you! Rebecca

[Highland Park] La Gourmandine breads available in East Liberty!
by Heather Cramer 06 Mar '14

06 Mar '14

Sorry to those of you who have already seen me post this before, but I've had numerous customers say that they're thrilled that we cary a selection of breads from La Gourmandine at Olive & Marlowe (5975 Broad St., around the corner from First Niagara Bank on N. Highland Ave.) but that I should "really post on the Highland Park listserv!" So this is for folks who weren't previously aware. We get fresh bread on Saturdays and mark down 50% on Sundays whatever doesn't sell. Eventually we hope to carry their bread more than just Saturdays but for now this is what we're doing. We regularly offer baguettes, ciabatta, olive focaccia, croissants, and pain au chocolat, but if there's something specific that we don't regularly carry that you'd like to get here just let me know by Thursdays (that's when I put in my order) and I'll have it here for you. We also carry local honeys from Apoidea Apiary (Shaler) and jams and jellies from The Berry Patch (Ligonier), and, of course, wonderful Californian olive oils and balsamic vinegars. Hours: Monday: closed Tuesday-Thursday-10-6 Friday: 10-7 Saturday: 10-6 Sunday: 11-4

[Highland Park] Estate Sale Business
by Laura Kuster 06 Mar '14

06 Mar '14

Hi HPers, Does anyone need someone to manage an estate sale? My mom, aunt and second cousin have an estate sale business called Ba-Be Joey Estate Sales & Liquidations, named after my aunt's three dogs. They've done a lot of sales for people who are leaving their house to enter a nursing home, families who have had someone pass away and need to clear out the house, or just for people who are moving to a smaller place and want to get rid of as much as possible. They'll do estate sales anywhere in the Pittsburgh area, but it would be great to get some interest around Highland Park since my sister and I live here! Give them a call if you think you might be interested, and they can give you more information. And please pass on their info if you know anybody that needs to have a sale! Call: 412-916-0158 (Kathleen, my aunt) Website: http://babejoeyestatesales.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/babejoeyestatesales?ref=br_tf Thanks! Laura
