FOR SALE: One (1) Sylvania 40Watt refrigerator light bulb
So the light goes out in the fridge last night so I just ran a small local hardware store to pick up another one. All they had were packages of two.

What the h*ll am I going to do with the other one? The last one lasted at least 5 years.

Okay it was $3.11 for the both of them so I am willing to offer the bargain basement price of ONE DOLLAR* for the other one.

*- please enclose fifteen dollars shipping and handling for this unique one of a kind delicate item.

1. That second bulb is for the cat box. So kitty can see what she is doing
and doesn't spray litter all over the floor. It's worth a try, anyway.

2. Buy a 2nd fridge.

Don't all Americans have 2-6 refrigerators?

Just like hot dogs and buns. Hot dogs come in 8 packs and buns in 6 packs, but since most Americans cook 24 at a time, it works out just fine.

3. Easy solution
get a second refrigerator, then chances are you will have an opportunity to use the second bulb sooner.

14. LOL
Okay enough

They really did come and cut it down. It split open when Isabelle hit and had been getting worse since September (almost a year).

We called and called about it and POOF it was gone.

It was been raining almost straight since then and my "smoking chair" (on the front porch) is always soaked now, the tree used to block it.

F**king squirrels don't know WHAT to do.

20. You could always add another room onto the house if needed.
By the way, I am jealous. We do not have a porch, wish we did.

4. seems obvious to me
Buy a second socket, some wire, and some electrical tape and rig up a second light for that refrigerator. Be sure to use stainless-steel screws or else the moisture will rust them.

6. I am not ashamed to say
that changing a light bulb is the extent of my electrical mechanic/repair abilities.

Nice idea but I really don't want to burn down the apartment building.
