That guy sounds like a subontractor for you. Put him on a 1 acre property and pay him five bucks. How can a guy pass on that. Hell maybe even buy him a six pack at the end of the week.

Back lawn is 40. Front and back must be purchased together at same time. COD only. You guys missed the fine print.

I'd be too curious. It's worth it to me to pay him $5 to cut my grass. I wouldn't want any lip, or i'd shut him down, or call the cops. Do the work buddy, then i'll flip you a 5. Anything else that comes out of your mouth is b.s. Think of it as doing him a favor; motivating him. Maybe I've been walked on, and i'm looking for revenge

I wonder if he'd travel north, my lawn is getting tall and $5 is less than it costs me to mow my own lawn!

Would it make a difference to you if he included an addendum to his ad: "will not come back at night to steal your stuff, GUARANTEED."

Obviously it's a guy that doesn't have a clue what he's doing.
