    I am with Freecycle, but never seem to get the stuff offered..always a case of "it's already gone ". Think you have to be quick orf the mark.

    I thinks its excellent, has so far saved the environment and more importantly my time and effort queuing at the tip several times. I really cant be bothered with car boots or ebay so yes its great.
    And yes I always miss the good stuff too!

    We use freecycle sucess rate of claiming items about 50%, find the good stuff goes very quickly.

    I am moving home soon and have found it invaluable.

    A bit fed up with the parasites silly 'wanteds' though, so I'd like to see the listings policed a bit better.

    Fair enough for the genuine 'wants' but have seen a want for a Land Rover Chassis, recently.

    Still , guess you never know.

    I've been with Freecycle for months now; first in Milton Keynes and now in Norfolk. I've given and received some good stuff, so it's well worth a punt! It's amazing the things people give away; I've seen perfectly useable TV's, Dishwashers, Washing Machines etc...stunning!
