Just killed 2 birds with 1 stone

Hey,

Just felt like sharing my latest accomplishment.
After signing up for Mustachianism a few moths ago, I decided to ditch the car ride to work and get a bike.
Since then I was on the lookout for a bike.
I almost bought a new one from the shop for ~$620, but luckily decided to look some more on a second hand listing site (similar to Craigslist, but that's not so popular where I'm from).

This past Friday, I found a "used" 2012 Trek for $433.09! This would sell new for well over $600.
When I say used I mean the previous owner rode it around 2-3 times! This bike was in mint condition, even the tires were spotless.

This was such a killer find, I felt I had to post it here.

My Get Rich checklist so far:

Get Rich With… Bikes (√)
Get Rich With.. Craigslist (√)

Congratulations!  Now make sure you get a helmet.  Personally I also wear a visibility vest, but I am not afraid to be a total nerd. -Ap

Hey man better a nerd than a pancake!


I'm amused at the 9 cents. Was that because of tax?

LOL, no - I converted the payment to USD and that was the amount.
