We must be crazy…. but we’re going to give this a shot!
OB Rag Classifieds!
We’re not looking to be another Craig’s List so we’re going to start small with just a few categories:
- Jobs – Help Wanted and Jobs Wanted
- Housing – For Rent and Roommates
- Services – legit services offered by individuals
- Stuff – for sale, for trade, for free!
It’s very simple to post a listing, just post a comment under the section where you want to place an ad. As always, type your name & email address in the appropriate boxes, then type your listing in the comment box. Make sure you include some kind of contact information in the big comment box, the email address you put in the small box IS NOT VISIBLE to the public.
You won’t be able to post images of the items that you are listing (if things work out we may add that option later), but you may post links to images that are posted elsewhere, like flickr, picassa or photobucket. Just type out or copy the URL into the comment box, it will link automatically.
Spam is absolutely not tolerated and will be deleted without notice, as will questionable listings at the discretion of the editors. We will not be verifying these listings so use your common sense and keep things in the spirit of the OB community.
Newer listings will appear at the top, older listings will drop off after 2 weeks (subject to change as things get busier). If you want your listing removed please come back and add a reply comment under your listing so we can identify it and we’ll remove it as soon as we can.
You can subscribe to comments in the sections you want to watch and you will get an email when someone posts a new ad. You can always get there from the OB Rag, click on the link on the right of the navigation bar near our logo.
Oh yeah, did we mention it’s free?
Ready? Get to posting some classifieds!

That’s really a creative way to use page comments. Good for you.
thanks for adding this! what a great idea. Use the resource RagsterS!
Cool beans!
Good job, Patty!
Folks – it goes without saying that the ads have to be in good taste or at least not in bad taste. Attempts at humor on this page may be misinterpreted, so will probably be deleted. Plus, the ads have to comply with the law. You cannot discriminate in housing ads, for example.
