    Hi blue,

    I echo what tigerfeet says - Freecycle is definately the best. Where do you live? (pm me if you like and I'll see if I can find one on our local FC)

    Are you on any benefits? Why not apply for a crisis loan. They are open to anyone and the OR does not ask you to state it in the statement of affairs. In fact it specifically says do not put down crisis loans.

    You have to pick up an application form from Jobcentre Plus and the DWP's definition of crisis is definitely not as stated in the Oxford dictionary. As in it will take about 2 weeks.:rolleyes:
