I am searching for a King headboard/footboard and came across this add from a dealer on craigslist:

"KING SIZE BED W/ONE NIGHT STAND - $299"

DH and I couldn't stop laughing. Anyway, I hope you all get a chuckle out of it as well Big Grin

It took me awhile but I think they're seeing a joke with the reference to "a one night stand". I think that joke needs work. Sorry, but I think that is lame.

Wonder what he looks like? Big Grin

I see crazy things (signs or sentences) all the time that aren't quite right and have to look again when I realize it couldn't have possibly have said/meant what I saw. I relate it to aging. But what I see is usually very funny albeit inappropriate. Makes me wonder what will be left of my mind in 10 more years! Eek Big Grin

You should e-mail and ask what would the price be without his services. Razz
