i love (hackney) freecycle

... though I only once got something actually worth picking up: some excellent bookshelves. Never found a way to plumb in the ancient printer to my mac; the record player was a weird design that meant the needle arm stuck and skipped more often than not.

The man who came for the small fridge I gave away was riding a tricycle pulling a little cart which was exactly the right dimensions to put a fridge in.

spect i should not have put that "(hackney)" in the title

i've just signed up for this!

it was invented in tucson arizona

i got a futon last week with some large cider stains on it

i gave away a nespresso machine on this a couple of years ago. the only thing i ever picked up were some MDF offcuts i ended up not using

I love freecycling. In recent months I have given away a freezer and a guitar amp to friendly folks. Not many charity shops near me take electrical goods anymore, so it's a good way to get rid of such things without dumping working stuff in a skip.

A friend of mine has managed to score a bike, 32" flatscreen TV and a 22" flatscreen computer monitor from it too.

separate the wheat from the chaff, innit. i've just joined too, i am in dire need of random crap to fill my small room to unliveable levels with.

Our Freecycle group disappeared in the great freecycle schism of 2009, still waiting for these local initiatives to appear.

sadly their non-appearance rather proves the founder's point, possibly

lol i am currently in the downcycle of my enthusiasm for this communal activity: you claimed yr items and i agrred to give them to you! come and pick them up maybe!
