Freecycle

[altariel]

Wow, my first experience of Freecycle was something of a triumph. I had an office chair going spare: I posted this morning, my post got through moderation at 17.29 this evening, first response at 17.35, and it was out of the door by 7pm! Grassroots organization in efficiency shock. Surely this is humanity's future?

ETA: Aw, just got a nice thank you note too.

Freecycle has worked well for me too - I've given away several old PCs (yes, really!) and cupboards full of jam jars. Some people are so nice about it too, giving stuff in return, like the lady who came to collect my last box of jam jars and left some home-made jam and chutney for me :)

Aw, that is so in the spirit of the whole thing!
