    Hi everyone

    Quite a few of you on here have suggested a seperate thread for kindle books but the problem is that it will become a very large thread with some books being free and some payable so people would have to trawl through each post to see if the books are still free.

    I do, however understand that there are quite a few on the freebies board and maybe other freebies are getting missed as some of you have said to me.

    I am thinking of suggesting a seperate sub board just for free e books, what do people think before I go ahead and make the suggestion?

    That's a great idea, it would make the board a lot easier to read.

    Unfortunately its a no go :(

    I have started a poll/discussion on this board so its going to the vote of the majority.

  • Let's see; today I found some plastic roofing, a garden chair and some bicycle spare parts. Ah yes; also two empty beer cans. :p

    Is there a quick way of flagging a deal as expired to get it moved to the 'Freebies gone but not forgotten' board in the same way there is to move an expired Competition on the Competition board to the 'Game Over' board?

    I think clicking the expired button needs a few people to do it before its automatically moved, probably the best way is to pm a bg and as soon as one of us come online it will be moved.

  • Got a 500 gram bag of coffee today in my local supermarket after finding an item on the shelf with the sell-by date expired. :cool::D
