Freecycle

When I was looking for a good home for a television recently, a friend suggested I try Freecycle. It's a Yahoo! Group .... and messages are delivered to your email. It's free and easy to use. As the Group home pages says: Freecycle (TM) Sydney Central is a group for people in the Central, InnerWest and Eastern Suburbs of Sydney who have things they don't need or want anymore and are looking for the item to be reused rather than thrown away. Don't dump it or send it to landfill, give it away instead!
So, you post your available items to the group and maybe your junk will become someone else's treasure! If you want something just ASK - you never know! Everything must be FREE, SAFE and LEGAL. Non-profit groups welcome. No politics, spam or silly business please. (colour added)

It worked a treat and the TV was soon on its way to a new home! Now I watch in wonder as the emails come in with the OFFER, TAKEN and WANTED notices.
