Free stuff

[Troll]

Gave away a whole greenhouse. Someone turned up, spent six hours disassembling it and took it away in their car.

Similarly gave away a damaged tv ( the screen had been scratched) and also a scratched and cat p!ss stained sofa ( clearly advertised).

I was amazed at what people would take away.

Did the cat scratch your TV as well as pee on the sofa?

Tried to give away a kids' bike.

Only call I got was from a fella in Milton Keynes who wanted me to deliver.

Gave up, and took it to the charidee shop.

last time we got rid of something via Freecycle we ended up with mormons collecting it and then they tried to continually come and hassle us.

Why Americans come to Britain on missionary work they couldn't explain..

Just tell them your satanists or if you're really sure you don't want them to visit again, tell them you're gay satanists

Do you have a car, petrol, under three years old, less than 10k on the clock, five door hatchback in excellent condition?

I DO as a matter of fact! Why not call and collect it? Of course it might have gone by the time you get here.

I really hate throwing useful stuff away but charity shops are quite picky about what they take. Now I've discovered this site:

The Freecycle Network

It's international and there is probably a local site near you. I posted an ad for a lot of greenhouse glass last night, got 3 replies and a bloke is now on his way round to collect it. Brill!

I will try my huge collection of 1980s electronic components next. Bound to be some weird hobbyist who wants a lot of 7400s and transistors etc. (Unless you want it of course Zeity)

Good call on that. Joined and got rid of a piano I don't want within twenty minutes and being picked up on Tuesday.

I'll happily collect.

It works well, you'll still get the odd random asking for a buy it now price because they're stupid to realise it's not ebay
