Local Ads
The paper has a "Bargain Box" section where the ads run for free as long as the items cost less than or equal to fifty dollars. Sometimes there's good deals but I don't know why some of these people even bother. Here are some of my favorites as they originally ran.

i thought that phone numbers never started with 555. (after the area code i mean.)
I admit to editing the phone numbers, so that the good people of St. Cloud selling $2 lamps wouldn't be inundated with calls from my many* readers. It seemed to be the polite thing to do.
