I just bought an old Polaroid camera at a garage sale. Can I still get film for it?

The Land List -- Frequently Asked Questions
You can still get film in the two pack-film formats (the 'rectangular' and 'square' pack formats), plus the SX-70, 600, Spectra/Image, Captiva/Vision and other later integral print formats. If you're not sure, you can easily determine on this site what film your camera uses and whether or not that film is still available. Just go to the Camera List main page, and find your camera in the alphabetical index.

Is there some other kind of film I can use in my old Polaroid rollfilm camera?

The Land List -- Frequently Asked Questions
Sorta. It's a big question that needs a separate web page, though. Please see the Film Alternatives for Polaroid Rollfilm Cameras page. I realize I sorta covered this topic on the page where I describe a few alternate techniques for taking pictures with rollfilm cameras (referenced above), but I still get asked this from time to time.

Where can I find old Polaroid cameras in general?

The Land List -- Frequently Asked Questions
Wherever they happen to be, I guess. General amateur-level models can be found at yard sales, flea markets, thrift stores, and the like. Your local full-service camera store may have some around. Many professional Polaroid camera models are still in high demand, so many camera stores will try to make them available. Want to try mail-order? Pick up a copy of Shutterbug magazine and peruse the ads-- you'll find a few old Polaroids hidden here and there.

You sometimes refer to "International" Polaroid camera models. What are those?

The Land List -- Frequently Asked Questions
For much of their history, Polaroid has had separate camera lines for their home (North American) market as opposed to the rest of the world. Sometimes these are actually the same cameras sold under different names (i.e. Spectra vs. Image cameras), and sometimes they're different cameras altogether. Note that some North American camera models were also sold elsewhere, while the converse is not true.

Are you a dealer? Do you have any Polaroid cameras/parts/accessories for sale?

Is it safe to use a pressure cooker that I bought at a garage sale?

B>Miss Vickie's Pressure CookerFAQs - A Bravenet.com Faq
One thing to beware of in buying a second hand pressure cooker is the gasket may be bad. Often times people are stuck with a cooker from overseas manufacturers, or a company goes out of business and there is no way to obtain replacement seals. If you can identify the brand name of the cooker as a nationally recognized manufacturer you can be reasonably certain that parts will be available. If the cooker appears to be in good condition otherwise, without and dents etc.

What kind of battery does my Polaroid camera need? Does it need a battery at all?

The Land List -- Frequently Asked Questions
NOTE: I'm including this question in this FAQ list simply because I get asked this sort of thing very often. On the one hand, I really don't want to turn this into some sort of 'price guide' thing, but on the other hand, it's a valid question that deserves an answer.] Sorry to say, but chances are, it's probably not worth more than a few dollars. ...And that'd be assuming you could find anyone who wanted it in the first place.

I just bought an 8-week-old puppy and he has a full tail. At what age should I get it docked?

Frequently Asked Questions - Zim Family Cocker Spaniels
It's already too late. The breeder should have had the tail docked at the age of 3-5 days, before the nerves in the tail were fully developed. It can be done very easily and with minimum pain to the dog at that age. Even though your puppy is only a couple of months old now, his tail is already very sensitive. It would require surgery with anesthetic to dock that tail now. Enjoy his unique full tail as it is, rather than putting your dog through surgery.
