Sunday brings an eclectic mix of posts on Seattle's Craigslist. Here are my favorites:

I like that this magazine rack uses rope to hold the magazines in place.
Capitol Hill
$20
Great retro magazine rack - light wood frame with black rope supports and iron legs. Very nice condition.
I think this dinosaur box is too cute and it fits my motto for buying housewares to a T, "If you have to have it, why not make it fun, exciting, or unique?"
Sammamish
$18
This toy box is made by Rubbermaid and is in great condition, no cracks or holes.
Can be used as a hamper for clothing too. Great toybox and made to last!
about 18" high and 30" long

$10 for a set of pretty glasses seems pretty reasonable to me. Take a look at the original ad to see more pictures.
Tacoma
$1o
A set of 4 Beautiful Holiday Glasses. Here are four glasses, little over 6 inches tall, 3 3/4 inches in diameter, the open top, and 3 1/4 inches across the base. There are white etched stars scattered around the sides. They are sturdy glasses, and a really nice shape to hold. They are in excellent condition, no cracks or chips. They would make lovely Christmas and New Year Eve glasses. The color is changing like carnival.. At night time they are like more purple/pink and at daytime they are more blue/purplish. They are BEAUTY!
Seeing as Seattle is the coffee capitol of the world, you probably have one of these already. In the off chance that you don't, this one seems cheap!
Greenlake/Northgate
$8
Mr Coffee burr coffee-bean grinder.

After looking at today's Seattle Craigslist posts, I feel comfortable in recommending people save themselves a trip to IKEA by looking on CL first. There were so many IKEA items listed that I think you could find the exact item you are looking for at a cheaper price while saving yourself to drive to Renton. There was a Malm bed listed for $15.
West Seattle
$20
"Set of 3 Black/Brown Klubbo Nesting Tables from Ikea. Some scratches/scuffing on the wood surfaces, and some scuffing/paint scrapes on the legs. Can be repaired with paint, Ikea repair pen, or a Sharpie marker. Some minor sharpie repairs already performed.
Sadly, the "nesting" nature of these tables makes them prone to getting chips/scuffs since the furniture gurus at Ikea failed to realize that when you have stackable tables that fit so tightly together, people rarely manage to nest them without dragging the metal legs across the crappy wood veneer.
But they look pretty frickin' sweet when you have them arranged like a stairstep coffee table. They're also lightweight and easy to carry. Makes a great nightstand, coffee table, bathroom table, end table, or kitschy stacked modern art display."

Here is a set of two on the IKEA site for $79.99: http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/30135026
This bike is the right price: FREE! Get it while you can.
Belltown
FREE
Free Men's bike plus extras. I bought this bike around 5 years ago for $500 but has spent the last three years on my covered porch. The tires are currently flat and probably needs a tune up badly.
Comes with 4 extra tubes, two pumps, a lock and various tools.
Must be ready to take everything.

I find these two PEZ dispensers quite funny. They are listed separately and for $12 each. You can go to the original ad by clicking on the respective photo.
CL posts of note:
Happy Hunting!
