I used to work at a free cycle paper company when I lived in California. It was called "The Recycler". Not sure if they still have it or not. Had such a blast working at that place!!

Well, it's different on a forum, but in an email to someone you don't know, I kind of expect the person to at least TRY to be grammatically correct, you know? Some of the responses I got looked like a kindergartener wrote them! I guess for me, it's a sign of respect to take the time to do it right. (Kind of like my other thread about being late...) I'm weird about things like that.

You should Marilyn! It's really great, but you do need to take precautions since you will be meeting up with people from the internet. Make sure your husband is home if they meet you there, or even better, meet in a public place! Michele and Wayne are coming to our house, but only because we found out that we know them. We decided to go ahead and make dinner for them while they're here as well, so it should be fun.

Anyway, you can go to www.freecycle.org and type in your hometown and it'll link you to your local freecycle.

I checked out the site. I had never heard of it but it was really neat. One of my daughter's is moving out this week and, I know she's going to need some stuff. I'll have her post some wanted ads on there and see how it goes!! Thanks, Angie!!!

Just FYI - the first post must be an offer.

AngieDoogles · 10-23-2007, 10:34 AM

That's true Diana. They do make you post an offer first, just so that people don't come and try to get stuff for free and never offer anything in return. It shouldn't be hard to find something to offer though. We all have old clothes, curtains, furniture, baby toys, or something that we need to get rid of, right?

I hope you are able to find some things to help out with your daughter's move!
