Does any one here FREECYCLE?

[Karen]

Yes, I have used it to give away things I didn't even think anyone would want! And not only did they, they came to get them quickly - always a plus.

there is one poster on my board who replies to everything I offer. I swear, I could offer a fresh bag of cat poop, and she'd be the first one to ask for it!

Wow! Where have I been??? THIS IS GREAT! I'm presently opening another office and I need furniture, especially now that my accountant said I owe a couple thousand in taxes this year. Thank you so much!

I have offered things on freecycle, but have yet to find anything that I want.

I "took" something that was offered, once, a small upright vacuum, to use in my office.

We have listed many things on our Freecycle, to be given away, though, and they have always found a home. Just last week, someone came and picked up a washer and dryer (not matching) that were both in need of repair, and someone came for my gas range that we had replaced. That lady said her oven hadn't worked in over a year.

The Mississauga group has a rule against those type of people. As a rule you need to offer something first & have to keep giving, close to what you take.

When I was trying to join, I had to say why I wanted to join & so on. I said I just moved into a new home & we need some things, esp for the dog we just rescued. When we need to upgrade or don't need something, then I can offer, but right now i have nothing. I was accepted. I picked up several baking pans & cookie sheets, we needed those really bad too! I also picked up an old computer that I need to fix up

Soon I'll be offering both our couches

Yes, I've given away quite a few things! It's a great concept! Hmmm, I'll have to look for Cheapcycle around here. I have tons of stuff that I'd like to place in a yardsale, but am too LAZY to have one. They are in new condition, so I hate to just give them away completely! Cheapcycle sounds perfect ... thanks for the info!

I've been curious about it, but this post prompted me to join my local Freecycle group.

A friend of mine is a moderator of her local Freecycle group.
