FREECYCLE - Hundreds of Free Items in your area! New & Used

There's a great site on the internet called freecycle.org . You can find almost anything from freezers to couches to childrens toys. There is a listing by city & county for every state. Basically, instead of donating items to charities that will sell them, people list things and pick a reader who can really use it. You'd be suprised at what you can get. Everything is always 100% free of charge, you just have to go pick it up. There's a lot of really awesome things. My husband is a big card collector and one man was giving away boxed collections of football cards. I was also able to get a granite countertop, tools and scrap booking stuff.
Do yourself a favor and check it out, you'll be suprised!
