Reduce Repair reuse, Recycle
Do your bit to be frugal
Frugal living means taking notice of the 4 Rs.
Freecycle hints for giving stuff away - please read this bit:
In the guidelines it suggests leaving it overnight after you've offered
something and then picking someone - rather than just giving stuff to
the first person who gets their request in. It seems sadly that some people
are bragging about "having got the last 30 items" because they
check their email very frequently. Obviously this is massively unfair
on people who work or can't check their email as often, so please leave
it 24 hours and then pick someone.
You can join in with freecycling - freecycling is when you give stuff
away rather than take it to the tip or put it in the bin. Its great for
items like old bikes, tvs, things which still work and you know someone
would get use out of - if only you knew who!
You can join your local freecycle group online - post messages about
the stuff you've got to give away and see how fats stuff goes! Find out
about freecycle groups near you here. member numbers are accurate as of
July 2005. If there isn't one for your actual town look for one near you.
Rules are simple. Everything given away must be free. You can't post
wanted ads until you've given away something and then not more than 1
a month! Its better to give than to recieve!
If you're hard up for cash then try ebay for selling stuff rather than
giving things away.
