Trade-Up!

So there's this guy from Montreal -- Kyle MacDonald -- who started a website called "one red paper clip."

Yep! That paper clip. And he is determined to trade his way up from the paper clip to a house. So far he has gotten a wooden fish pen for the paper clip. In exchange for the wooden fish pen he got a hand made door knob. The door knob was then traded for a Coleman stove and now he has a red generator.

I first heard about this guy on CBC radio on November 10, 2005.

So, I figure, hey, if Kyle can do this....so can I.

I am willing to trade a fridge magnet in the shape of a hunk of cheese. I think its a promotional item produced by the Milk Board or whatever they call themselves...probably dairy something. The magnet is exactly the size of a single serving of cheese (50 g). This is not just a good trade, but potentially, the only magnet on your fridge which will help you become way healthier than you currently are....really!

I await your first trade...post your comments with an e-mail address and I will get back to you.

p.s. this offer is only open to people who are in Toronto or within a one hour driving radius of Toronto.
