About 10 days ago my wife learned about a web site called Freecycle<\/a>. It basically gets people in a city on an email list (A YahooGroups list) for the purpose of giving and recieving stuff. The rules are, you can post a message of a OFFER to give something away or a NEED of something. Then someone who wants what you’ve got or has what you need emails you and a transaction takes place. The catch is anything offered has to be free. It’s a pretty neat idea to help folks with unwanted things find a home for them. In the 10 days we’ve been on it we’ve gotten rid of the Fitness Flyer we weren’t using, an old worn out Weber grille, and an Epson printer that worked but had the habit of spewing and smearing ink on the page every now and then. The printer was gone within 24 hours of us getting our new one. Additionally, we picked up a new Casio keyboeard (and stand) to replace our eldest daughter’s that just quit one day and my wife picked up some kind of designer skirt outfit.
\nGreat idea, go check it out and see if your city’s on the list.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
