My local freecycle group is hosted by yahoo whom I've registered. However even though I (apparently) sign in I can't see how to offer goods. There's a forum,…

The company I work for have a large quantity of product that contains copper, brass, steel and plastic. They don't want to chuck it in the skip - they are an ethical company but it is too small an amount for them to take apart and recycle.I have said I'd do it - for personal gain - but where can I take it to for cash?

Alternative to the Tefal One Cup
The Tefal One Cup retails at 49.99 and there are several arguments as to if you are saving because of the water filter. If you have a Tassimo drinks maker, like me, then you are in luck.
