It Happened To Me On Craigslist!
Posted by robynoratocom
There were links to interesting and somewhat strange jobs in my area, not to mention pets and free medical supplies. Also available: one-stop-shopping for the free and willing (Casual Encounters) as well as those who are willing provided there is a donation (Erotic Services). One year and three semi-sexual experiences later I have acquired everything from a stripper pole, to a transvestite pseudo-BFF named Susan.

(Although some of those companies now partner with newspapers.)
