The more you spend, the better the friend

Shane Braisdell, is 29, and married happily. He lives in Wigan England. At the moment Shane is selling his friendship on eBay. Here's the price list;

For 99p you can buy the basic 'silver' package which can include a birthday card, monthly e-mails, and a certificate confirming the friendship.

For £30, Shane will solve your problems and send cookery tips, weekly e-mails, and film reviews.

If bids reach £70 Shane will send monthly video clips of his life. He will give out his mobile number so a friend can text him - with a guaranteed response to every message.

If bids go over £400, Shane promises a 30 minute web cam chat every month. And he will take out an advert in a local paper of the winning bidders choice, saying that he is their best friend.

For £500, Shane will send his new friend a DVD of his choice each month.

These friendship packages last 12 months.

I wish this wasn't true but it really is. What is the world coming to when you can buy a friendship, that sounds alot like what an e-magazine will send you for free every month. Would you really want it advertised that you had bought yourself a friend. I think the world has gone insane, I really do.

(*wishes she had thought up selling friendship idea first, as is currently short on cash*)

Er, Sally, I'll be your friend for free.*








*Pay nothing for 12 whole months! Then, only $9.95 USD per week until Angloesque has a job and won't need you anymore, and will then drop you like a rag doll whose head fell off.

Personally, I think it's hilarious. Hell, the guy might even start to care about you after 40, 80 , 200 quid. At least it's all upfront, not like the "trophy wife" or the thread you wrote about not long ago the 50+ year old and 18 year old.

Not to hijack your thread or anything, but if you want insane, go read my five lines over here ... Stumpie on drugs .... that's crazy ...

oh my. that is too funny. I agree, the world has gone insane. Look at reality T.V.
I heard a while ago that there was some "once was" child actor( I forget who) and he didn't have any money so he offered to sell one of his mollars on e bay. what is more disturbing..that he had to resort to that or that he actually got bids?

I have a crazy revolutionary idea that might just work to make you able to make bank like this guys is doing...

Get ready for a life changing business idea.

Instead of advertising friendship on Ebay. Why don't you advertise your body!?! Shocked?

I know, I don't know when the genius hit me and why nobody has thought of it before.

Sell sex to them. Wow, i'm great!
