I was out walking my patient today, 2 homes down her road there is a half million dollar home that sits up on the side of the mountain. The people who live there must have no worries when it comes to money - I saw an Eddie Bauer twin stroller... one of those front and back seat ones and an InSTEP jogging stroller sitting at the end of their long driveway beside the trash. Both strollers were dusty but in otherwise excellent shape. I can not believe they were just throwing them away! I grabbed the jogging stroller and dragged it back to my car. After checking it out I loaded it in my trunk. I would have taken the other one too but didn't have room in my car for it.
It's a shame they weren't willing to take the time to drop it off at Goodwill or at least advertise it on Freecycle. I'm so excited about this stroller!! I have been shopping for a better one for my grandson but couldn't afford to buy a new one. \
Answer:
Maybe they were hoping someone like you would come along and give it a good home! In my neighborhood, people do put things out, knowing someone would come along. Sometimes they put signs on, sometimes not. It seems like the ones without signs go quickest!
