It's Back to School For '5 Things'

Do you know how hard it is to wrap a theme around Craigslist?

It's pretty hard. But, we did it, and we would love to share the fruits of our labor with you.

Ever wanted to make your own (sort of) authentic classroom in the comfort of your own home? Humor us. We've done the legwork and found the supplies you'll need, which can all be found right here in Morristown!

  1. You Need to Know About the Antique School Desk: You need a desk to get your work done. Coming in at $110, this "antique school desk," listed since May 16, is "all original," according to the seller.
  2. You Need to Know About New Jersey ... Maps: To decorate, or to brush up on state history, you'll have to have a map of New Jersey, which the seller believes to have been made sometime in the late 1800s. Well after George Washington slept here, but . This has been listed since May 14 and is selling for $60.
  3. You Need to Know About Art ... Books: College textbooks can be a steal. That is, they can steal the money from your wallet. So, why not complete your home education kit with a copy of Art History I & II, currently being used at the County College of Morris, according to this seller. Normally going for $165, they are asking for $120. It has been listed since May 16.
  4. You Need to Know About Being the Cool Kid in Class: There was always one, and you probably weren't him (don't worry, neither were we). Now, be him in your classroom of one with this "vintage motorcycle jacket," listed since May 14 and going for $100. Don't know much about history, know too much about awesome (I know, we were stretching the theme a bit on this one).
  5. You Need to Know About ... Hey, Do You Want to Cut Class? Yeah, let's go play Rock Band 3. I hear it has been listed since May 13 for $60.

* Note: Morristown Patch does not condone, nor promote cutting class, unless it's one you made up on your own based on items we found on Craigslist.
