Craiglook has changed my life. Craigstoolbox looks good but it doesn't have that awesome radius search and I prefer not to download / install on my machine. Great article ! Thank you for the tip.

You are right: CraigsToolbox did change my life, although my approach is the opposite of yours. Rather than rely on keywords, I am as vague as possible about the terms but very specific about the top price I'm willing to spend. For instance, when I was looking for a table for my workroom, I knew I wanted to buy a table and chairs for under $50, and I preferred wood (sturdy!). And I wasn't willing to leave the city to get it. So I searched for table, within the city of Chicago, put $50 as the max price and used Craigstoolbox to search through the sludge very quickly. I ended up with a expandable wood table (fold down ends) and two chairs for $50...and I only had to travel a few blocks to pick it up. I love these tips!
