I read about Freecycle on Laura's Blog and have been meaning to post about it ever since. 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.
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 great article 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!
