My Skip, Very good Free Items (Free Car on there Today !!)

I really like the site My Skip
clicky

It is like a freecycle site, people give stuff away on it, but you have to be quick as it goes really quick, I have seen Ipods, MP3 Players, PC's, Sofa's, Ornaments etc etc, of course you have to pick it up from the person, but also each week the site gets a donation from a famous person, see text:

Every week MySkip.com will be placing an item on the site that has been kindly donated by a celebrity - it's a fun way to get stars involved! They'll be donating real items that they genuinely no longer have any use for and it's this action - not the item, that will help draw attention to the serious issues surrounding unnecessary waste. That's why we're not going to tell you what the items are! So you'll never know whether that hat or those sunglasses belonged to Boy George or a boy band ... Happy Hunting

I am still looking for Cilla Black's Bentley, but hey you never know !!:j

Hope this is of help to someone and Please please dont shout at me if it has been mentioned before, I did a search and it didnt come up.

    Might be worth noting, that if you request a 2nd chance offer they will text you and you will be charged 25p + standard text charge to receive

    I guess you could ask them, I am sure if you paid postage they might. I cant believe the stuff they give away, some of it is lovely.
