Victoria’s Secret probably doesn’t have to worry about competition from Ada County, but we find it interesting to see the new line of feminine apparel being offered on the county Treasurer’s website.
Our favorite items being offered are three BRAS with what look to be original price tags for small breasted women (36B) for a minimum bid of only $2. This may be a “a bait and switch” because the price tag shows 36C size which leaves more (or less) to the imagination.
With Christmas just a few weeks away, this may be the perfect bargain for the special friend!
For more bargains, click HERE before November 27.
When someone dies without a will or surviving relatives, the treasurer disposes of the assets. Treasurer Vicky Mcintyre has been under increased scrutiny of the Ada Commishes, so sale of this estate–regardless of cost to administer–may be prompted by the watchful eyes. Or it may simply be a strict adherence to the law.
WAIT! THERE’S MORE! We found additional pages with even BIGGER bargains (34D).

My daughter used to think it was great sport to pull her mothers bra’s out of the clothes basket and wear them around as earmuffs. perhaps with cold weather coming on many would like to take advantage of this. In the spirit of being correct would work well on windy days on the golf course too.

36B is “small breasted”?
I’m not sure how far on the dumb scale selling $153 of clothing on a county web site is,,,,, but it is definitely dumb!

I think it’s a great idea so long as it’s in the black. If they are having to pay someone more than the revenue from the items, then please, just give the stuff to Youth Ranch.

Selling for $2 and will take $10 in staff time to post and sell.

Thanks for another titillating story.
I think our Treasurer is something less than a treasure.

Who would want to buy a dead lady’s bras?

I guess following the law is so yesterday anymore. This is what county treasurers have to do. You don’t like it? Get the law changed. And if she doesn’t follow the law, well, I’m sure we all could guess what the county commissioners would do.

Rick, are you saying that beauty is in the eye of the B holder?

Odd, there are people and companies which make a living cleaning up the little stuff like this… kinda like the storage wars show.
Sad that someone has passed and their personal things are plastered on a public website.

Thank you so much for your story about our Ada County Public Administration website. We love publicity for the site because the more traffic it gets, the greater the proceeds are, and the fewer taxpayer dollars that need to be used to support this legally mandated function of the elected county treasurer. Although, on the surface, it might sound silly to post articles of clothing, such as bras (tags still on), we think of these lower-priced items in the same way a grocery store uses “loss leaders” to entice customers in to buy higher priced items. In our case, we have benefited by attracting higher prices for our estate vehicles. Since adding the website to our methods of disposing of estate assets, we have increased our returns dramatically; thereby reducing the amount of taxpayer dollars needed to process the estate probate. Keep up the good support!
EDITOR NOTE–The GUARDIAN is always glad to do its patriotic duty on behalf of all citizens!
