For all of you that like to recycle and reuse i thought i would share one of my favorite sites:
Freecycle.org
You can go to the site and find people in your location that are getting rid of things they no longer need for free.. you just have to go pick it up yourself.. I have picked up a fewthings myself.. like some old flower pots that i cleaned up and reused, and some old clothes that i got to use as material for random things. If you do use the site just be safe, i personally never go by myself to pick the stuff up. The times i have went the people just left the stuff out side for me to get, and i left a little thank you note =). I love the idea of reusing things that people no longer have use for.

Luv freecycle. I got my daughter's mattress and box spring off there and I am in the process of hooking up with someone to get bunkbeds. I also unloaded a toddler bed a few months ago.

I can't seem to find a place near me, the only place is quite a distance. Thanks for the site anyway though, i know some people who would love this.

Although i have taken from the site i have yet to offer anything... but i'm still in college right now and don't have much to give away =). When i graduate i'm pretty sure most of everything will be offered.

Yea, I know. The hardest thing is when your internet or computer is not working and you know you are missing episodes and projects, it is like a drug. LOL

You should add where you live by applying for a new local group.. it is located under the search. =)
