March 7, 2024

In the unpredictable world of online selling, a recent Facebook Marketplace post took an unexpected turn for a woman who had just experienced a tough breakup.

Little did she know that her attempt to part with a seemingly "stupid" coffee table would lead to an outpouring of kindness, support, and a newfound appreciation for the quirks of life.

The woman, grappling with the end of a relationship, decided to sell a coffee table for $100, accompanied by a candid description that painted a picture of her post-breakup struggles.

The table was dubbed "stupid" for being too tall for her couch, too short for anything else, and, to make matters worse, it served as a reminder of her ex.

Little did she expect that the attention would quickly shift from the furniture to the feline friend.

The flood of over 500 messages inundating her inbox was not inquiries about the table but rather about her cat, with people wondering if the table came with the cat and even commenting on the cat's "dad bod."

Amid the unexpected barrage of messages, a brilliant suggestion emerged from the crowd – why not ask for $1 from 100 people via Venmo and then just get rid of the table? Embracing the creativity and humor in this proposal, she decided to give it a shot.

To her delight and gratitude, the strategy worked, and she soon found herself on the receiving end of $100 from a supportive community.

In a heartfelt message expressing her astonishment, she said, "I am absolutely blown away by the outpouring of kindness and support I have been shown, and am still in disbelief at all that's unfolded since I posted this in the middle of the night on a whim thinking no one would see it."
