Woman sells husband's belongings in 'lying cheating sale'
A scorned woman held a yard sale to get rid of her husband's belongings while he was away for the weekend with his lover, reports the Province.

The British Columbia woman placed an ad on Craigslist that read, in part, "Husband left us for a piece of trash, selling everything while he is gone this weekend with his floozie."

The ad went on to read that the woman was selling everything and moving after 10 years of marriage. Featured items for sale included his favorite sofas and "lots of tools which he didn't have a clue how to use."

The ad stated that there would be no clothing for sale, "as we will have already burned those in the driveway."

It's unknown how much money the was raised by the yard sale or if the woman will be allowed to keep all the funds since in a typical divorce proceeding, a court requires both sides to account for all assets. This would include funds raised from such a sale.
(I like that last graf.)

She could have sold his stuff for a really good price... say, $1 per item, no matter how big or how small. Even if she had to thorw the resulting pittance into the common pool during the divorce proceedings, the satisfaction would likely be worth more than the true fair market value of what she sold "on his behalf".

I have seen that one done. It tends to work as long as none of the items in question were appraised and insured (those will bite you on the ass).
