I was just wondering what the most outrageous thing people have done to get money for spiders: stealing, pawning, selling, foodstamps, welfare checks, stealing spiders???

I just trade spiders for spiders when I am jonsing for something new but don't really have extra cash laying around when I need that "new spider fix".

What do you do?

What would you do for a P. metallica?

I sold my Bass guitar a few years back and got a load of spiders/ scorps with the cash.

I tried to sell clothes and stuff on eBay for spider money, but then I needed it for more important things, like food. :(

Then there are the Tarot readings which I'm trying to build a clientele for, and my Cafepress.com stores... and I'm thinking of having a garage sale to see if this time I can actually spend the $$$ on bugs. I still want a versi bad. :D

If I've ever owned a gaming system I would have pawned it.
:eek: *gasp*! Sell a gaming system!? Never!
(I have SNES, N64, GameBoy, GameBoy Advance SP, & PS2.)

As for myself, I have sold plasma, in the past.
Peace, light & eternal love..

I've sold basketball cards and used the money for tarantulas. Better a bunch of slings than a couple of Yao Mings. :D

p.s., PS2's are supposed to go down to 129.99 in a few months. Myself? I think the price on them is going down in preparation for PS3.

I sold a bunch of cd's a few years back to by a group of P. formosa juvies. The worst part is that 5 of the 6 turned out to be males, and the female got stuck in a molt about 3 weeks ago. And died.

sniff.

At least I burned copies of the CD's.
But now I can't listen to them without remembering.

Once I tried selling my body on a street corner, but by the end of the day I ended up owing money.

Maybe instead of selling your whole body, you could just part it out. Anything you have two of or can live with out. :D

I just spend money that I am tryin to save. Doesn't make any sense, does it? I shouldn't spend what money I have, but the fever can get really intense at times.
