Sources......"Reuseit" and "Freecycle"

[GrayBeard]

Two very worthwhile areas to check for a number of reasons.

1. Everything that would eventually go into a landfill is fair game to be posted thus decreasing the amount of 'stuff' dumped into the landfills.
2. Everything MUST be FREE!
3. Give and Take between individuals.
4. You never know what you will find that someone is giving away. I have received everything from phono albums to a pickup! I have given everything from computer parts to underwear!
5. There are 'groups' everywhere, some even have established 'chat groups' like ours!
6. Can be a source for WOOD and leftover building materials, paint, hardware, FURNITURE, etc.

Locally I prefer the ReUseIt group but FreeCycle may fit better for others...

Do Your Part...Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.....

Everything that goes into our land fills is picked over and sold on site and is not cheap I am told, I forage in the Sallies and Vinnie"s shops at home and pick up the odd cheap piece of wood, bed ends furniture, you have to know what to look for as there is so much veneer around now

Well Janet....
Two years ago I went into the hospital unexpectedly and in FIVE and a half weeks I went from 265#'s down to !98#'s....
Finally leveled out at an even 200.
Been that for 18 mos.
So I had an awful lot of clothes that didn't fit from underwear to my Tux.
Almost all is now being used by others.
Feel better, look better, and a lot healthier!
And a heck of a lot happier!!!!
