hi im a mod on one of the freecycle boards,

sometime when a memeber posts a message it gets modeated ie a new member posts an item a wanted or an offered and it gets stuck in libo until a moderator authorises it.
may i ask how long you have been a memeber of your local freecycle group for.
because normally you are moderated for the first month before messages are posted straight away.

if in doubt email the groups moderators and they will get back to you quickly and will post your message.
we have 4 mods on our board and over 1000 members so far and counting but really i cant see why they havent put your message through yet.

good luck.

ps.let me know how you get on

flufff

Just wanted to say thanks for letting us know about "Freecycle". After seeing the post I went and had a look. I now have a dishwasher with a digital display in brilliant condition (and it only cost the price of the petrol to pick it up!!) Its going to make my life a lot easier so thanks again! :T

Its been 2 hours since i put my first item up - a pair of sofa's and there's someone on their way to collect them and a hoover is being collected in the morning!!!
Amazing, and better than the tip!

of course it's fab!
we renovated our spare room and one lady came and took 5 bulky items of furniture, plus loads of junk i.e broken dvd player, baby toys..she then came back and brought us a car seat for our baby and loads of clothes..plus a couple of bottles of wine!
I love it!

This is my very first post!!!

I have been looking through the site for about a week now, and joined my local freecycle which i had never heard of until i came on this site, and my husband is collecting our first freecycle item tonight after work a carpet for one of my kids rooms, which we just have never had money to get since we moved in 2 years ago!!!
Have a feeling i will be using this site loads, as we are debt free wannabes and i am loving all the money saving tips!!!!
SO ON BEHALF OF 2 OF MY 4 KIDS THANK YOU!!!
AND THANKS FROM ME DONNA!!
