Freecycle!

You don't have to throw anything away, and I mean that! If you haven't yet started to Freecycle, check out the main organization's site at: Freecycle.org

You can search out your Home Network there and join the group. I've freecycled a few awesome things to equally awesome people...and I've gotten some great stuff in return! It's like bartering, but better!

If you don't want to part with that box of old frames, but you know you don't have room anymore...Freecycling is the answer!

Here's a list of potential items for freecycling:
  • Books, movies, and music (like a free Borders before it went out of business!)
  • Lamps and Accent Furniture
  • Linens (i.e. tablecloths, towels, pot holders, curtains)
  • Clothes (especially clothes that don't fit anymore)
  • Cords and Adapters (ones you don't need)
  • Arts and Craft Supplies
  • Candles and Candle-holders
  • Appliances (not being used, that is)
  • Kids' Stuff
  • Containers
  • Planters and Garden Accessories
  • Kitchen Utensils
  • Pots and Pans
Many people have more than they need of one thing (or a few things), and freecycling is a fun way to share with your community. Plus, you get to make new friends!

To sign up for a freecycling network in your community, visit Freecycle.org...get involved!
