We Love Craigslist
We were just sitting around on Saturday, not doing much of anything, when I decided to see if there was anything good on craigslist. I came across a post for free sod, and it was only about two hours old. It was a first come first serve deal so I drove by to see if there was any left. Originally there was about 3,000 square feet, enough to do our back yard several times. When I did my drive by the majority of it was still there, unfortunately I had taken the car, and not the Discovery. I hurried home and got the Disco, and was able to get in one good sized load, and a second small one before it was all gone. It ended up making a pretty good sized patch of grass in our back yard, and best of all, it was free. Thats the best kind of affordable!

Wow! Looks great and can’t beat the price. I’m so jealous of those who live in urban areas and have craigslist. I live in a smallish midwestern university town … why can’t we have craigslist here? wah! (We did just get an Ikea about 2 hours away though, so things are looking up.)
Assuming it is Zoysia or Bermuda, if you put it out checkerboard it will fill in over time. My grandmother bought a few pallets of Zoysia and got me to put it out checkerboard. The neighbors thought she was crazy, but it filled in the next summer and it looks fantastic now.
