Already Frustrated! August 4, 2006

The contest is just getting started and I’m already frustrated!

About a month ago I bought a couple of track scanners (to use at NASCAR events for the uninformed among you) on woot! I usually go to the Kansas Speedway race with my father-in-law every year and we normally either rent or borrow track scanners. When I saw these on woot!, I couldn’t pass them up, since they were only $39.99 with a normal retail of over $100. Once we got them, however, we just weren’t overly happy with them. Not that they are horrible, we were just expecting a little more.

So, they were just sitting around the house until I could decide what I wanted to do with them. Well, then this contest comes around, and I thought, “Hey, I can sell one of those track scanners and use the money for the contest!” Great idea, huh? Well, not so much. I put one up on eBay and got a few lookers but no bids. So, I re-listed it, lowered the price, and again, nothing!

Time to dig around the house some more and see if I can find some other forgotten treasure to sell.
