Freecycle Rocks!!!

So in anticipation of likely selling our home, Scott and I tackled our basement this past weekend. We re-arranged, re-boxed, and cleaned up. I surveyed the junk we weren't sure what to do with: old, old sewing machine, electric weedeater, dip belt, old college science books, full size bed frame. Who would want that stuff apart from the weedeater. We didn't have enough for a garage sale, so freecycle it is. I joined freecycle a while ago, but hadn't parted with or picked up anything in my first few months. To my dismay everything was claimed the second it went online. Nothing has been picked up yet, but by tomorrow our house will be a bit lighter! We still have a box of old soccer shoes that Scott's going to take to Play it Again Sports. If they're not gone by the weekend I'm posting them. It's addictive. I got probably 40 emails for all that junk (excuse me...wonderfully recyclable treasures).

I wish I'd thought of freecycle last year. That would have saved some time in our move. We just put it out on our curb. Since we lived on Geyer, the still gone in a couple of days!

Actually, maybe I should think of freecycle for some stuff now!

Doesn't it feel nice to get rid of stuff!
