    A few years ago, we renovated our kitchen and upgraded our 1950's electric stove/oven. We did a little research and found out that we were going to have to pay to throw it away (I don't remember the exact price but I'm thinking it was like $40 or $50). That stove was soo gross. There was no way to open the top of it, and there was 50 years of crumbs under the range -- you could vaccuum out some of it, but anything out of reach of the vaccuum was stuck there. So we put it out at the curb. Unfortunately, it rained that night (we covered it with a tarp) and I was convinced that we were going to have to suck it up and pay to get rid of it. But the next morning, it was GONE! Saved us a lot of time and energy and money! I love putting stuff out for free!

    I can't tell you how many times I have put things at the curb and in less than ten minutes IT WAS GONE!!

    I am starting to think that someone sits up the street and just watches our house because it was picked up so fast.............

    But they say - your junk is someone elses treasure.

    I think the funniest for me is a couple of weeks ago I put out an old cardboard box that was nearly crushed but was too big to put in the trash can. Someone took it before the trash collector even came!
