    Another Craigslist Ad ;)

    Looking for reliable sitter asap in my home who loves kids maybe a stay at home mom or someone who doesnt have to work!
    summer~ 8 am~6Pm
    School~11:30~6pm
    Looking to pay $50 wk plus all that u do crafts, outings etc!
    Which means summer pay is $1/hour and school year pay is a whopping $1.54/hour
    This is just sad The key word in this ad are "someone who doesnt have to work" Honestly, even if you don't have to work, I doubt you would work for that!!
    So, should I reply?

    My mom and I always joke about the "just does this for extra money/ doesn't have to work line". If I didn't have to work I would probably choose something else for extra income

      $50 a week for a nanny?!? my word, what are people even thinking? and I am guessing there is more than one child too. I chare $30 per day for one child in my home. I would charge at least $50 a day to go to someone elses house (for just one child)

        Funny you should say that ! Patches e-mailed a response last night, saying they must have made a typo - saying $50.00 a week rather than $50.00 a day. Clearly it must be a typo, because $50.00 a week is $1.00 an hour. ::::

              ummm I got a $100 a week in the summer to look after two kids when I was 13 years old. That was nearly 25 years ago.

                    Good Job Patches! Poor thing she never would have gotten a good reply otherwise.
                    I wondered because it seems she was willing to pay for crafts etc.
