I saw a sign today that said "tool sale"

went to the location. It's a semi truck filled with "straight outta China" junk. It's like going to the tool section of e-Bay. No Ganks

some guy spatted off a laserjet model we use at work on the phone and tried to get me to buy toner for it from him.

If I was in a position to offer jobs I still wouldn't offer one to someone who begs for money, there is always a better option out there than going this low, I go through some pretty bad parts of Miami on a regular basis for work and I have to deal with this kind of then on a daily basis, gets real old real quick.

Reading this thread, the Simpsons episode where Otto comes walking out of the "Stoners Pot Palace" mumbling something about "that's false advertising" comes to mind...

Uh... you gave a random person your address for two dollars? That scares me.
