Boston man selling historic snow from his backyard for $89

Boston has seen more than 100 inches of snow this winter and some residents are sick of it. One man in particular decided to do something about it.

Kyle Waring wants to get the snow out of Boston, so he's bottling and shipping it to other states. Waring started the website Ship Snow, Yo for people in warmer states that would like to enjoy some snow or send it to a friend or family member. Waring tells Buzzfeed the whole thing started as a joke after sending some snow to their family in Florida, but now it's turned into a legit, profitable business. 

According to Ship Snow, Yo

"This is your chance to not only own a piece of history, but also help save Boston from #Snowmageddon2015! Every order counts.

“Note: We will not ship snow to any states in the northeast! We’re in the business of expunging snow!"

Orders are shipped overnight and arrive in a styrofoam box with the snow in a ziplock bag and then wrapped in tin foil. 

If you're worried about your snow order melting, you can purchase six pounds of snow for $89 that is guaranteed to arrive within 20 hours. Prices range from $20 up to $120.
