If you dont you should. its a group and you join to get or give away items you no longer need or want. Everything is FREE and people give away QUALITY items (sometimes) it was a big help for me when i moved i got my coffee table, computer desk, rabbit & his cage, and much more. Check it out www.freecycle.org (not sure of the link but do a google search and it will come up)

I heard about Freecycle just before the holidays and joined the list for my area. I gain joy from giving to others and helping to meet the needs of others. I have not posted for a "wanted" item yet, but have offered several items to others. The people I have met through this list have been extremely gracious and kind.
Some of the people I have met have fallen on hard times and are finding it difficult to get back on their feet. I feel that I am helping them in a small way to rebuild their lives.
I do clean the items I am offering as most have been stored away and not used for a long period of time. I would like to give to a stranger an item in the same condition I would give to a loved one.
This is much better than throwing items away just because I don't use it anymore. I am happy to have an opportunity to paricipate in my community in this manner.

Asalaam Alaikum, this is sure a blessing to be able to give and recieve charity. I am quite sure this will help alot of people. There are many people who have items that are of good use and others can use them. It is a reward for the person giving it as well as a blessing for the one recieving it. Inshallah i will check this site out. Take care
