hi i thought my grandma was going to die of old age, (98) so i thought it would be nice to go ahead and buy her a really nice solid oak coffin with beautiful light pink velvet inside.
that happens to be 3000 dollars and 4 years ago, i am tired of waitng i lost my job and really need the money, and she for some reason wants to be cremated, so i made her a yern out oy a mailbox, and some barb wire. its actually pretty sweet, i would have to post pics to explain it. anyways im looking for 1000 bucks, the coffin is 4 feet wide by 5 and a half feet long, she weighs 409 pounds. so the yern is about the size of a 5 gallon bucket, thats what i was told 15 pounds of ashes would fit in.
so if you think some short fat person is going to die in your family soon, this is the coffin for you. will trade for quad, or mudder
thank you,

where do you find time to even find ads like this on craigslist?

This just TOTALLY made my day. I kept reading and it kept getting better and better. I'd like to meet the person that has a quad or a mudder that would be interested in a pink velvet coffin.

I also love how they explain the math involved in deciding what to put the ashes in. Too good.

Good find, Hailey.
