Freecycle is great. But if you want to cover all your bases and get quickest results, you need to consider other gifting resources: fullcircles.org, reuseitnetwork.org; kijiji; usedeverywhere.com; etc.

It sounded too good to be true--classifieds for people giving things away.  So I joined the mailing list and now receive daily emails listing not only what people are giving away, but what people need.  Many cities have them, and you can even join a more localized group within your area.  </DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.stillhatepickles.com/2008/11/freecycle-craigslist-of-free-stuff.html"><DIV>These days, everyone's talking about going green, but often this means buying stuff that's expensive.  This is not true for everyone, I know, but being green is very trendy these days, and anything trendy becomes an easy target for people selling you things.  This <A href="http://www.fastcompany.com/magazine/123/another-inconvenient-truth.html">great article</A> that I read on Reston Mom a long time ago, really resonated with me. When I read about Freecylce, the article came back to me.  If you consider yourself interested in being "green" (or are tired of hearing that term thrown around like I am)  I highly recommend reading! </DIV></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/660F551A-9438-49CC-A1F3-2A251E840603/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
