Are you addicted to Freecycle?
458479
It goes is spurts -- Right now I am an "inactive" member. But I know that will change soon! \n\nI think the concept is great and am happy giving my unwanted items to someone who will actually use them (as opposed to dropping items off at a community rummage sale or Goodwill). \n\nI do find it a bit time-consuming. But when I'm actively posting, yes, it is addicting!

I do recycle personally; even though some places make it an absolute pain to do so.\n\nOne place I lived, they had a "recycling" place.  However, in order to use it, you had to go when it was open, which was only one Saturday a month for two hours.  Then you had to take all the recycling you had piled up during that time and seperate it yourself.\n\nIt was sometimes too much to handle, especially because I used to have to travel some weekends, so sometimes I would have to make two or three trips to deliver all my two or three months worth of recylycing... which even if you wash it out at home before storing it... didn't exactly smell nice.\n\nWhere I am now they actually take it all curbside once a week (the same day as trash)... which is SO nice.  Another place I lived you had to take your own garbage to the town "dump"  If you didn't recycle (or volunteer at the recycling station at least once a year) you were given quite a hard time.  It was a small New England town, so they really did care and worked hard to recycle.\n\nTowns and cities need to make it easier, and people will just catch on.  Then they won't remember what it was like not to.  Change takes time... but you have to make it a little easier for people.

Try going on Yahoo Groups and search for a local "freecycle" group. They allow people to give away stuff they don't need / want anymore to people who can use it... freeing up space in landfills.\n\nI've seen everything from cameras to cars given away there... just as a warning, it can get rather addictive.\n\nhope this helps :-)

If you're in the U.S., try Craig's List or your local Freecycle group, both on the internet.\n\nFor refurbished, contact manufacturers and ask -- some have charity programs.

Yes answering has become addicting. I think it's addicting is because we can try to help people with whatever problem they have. No matter how big or small it may be. And it let's us remember that we are not the only ones with something on our minds.

Have you tried www.freecycle.org? Check out the website. It's not exactly 'recycle' by the purest sense of the term but once you check the website you'll be sure to like it.

I checked the website out, and it appears to be nothing but advertisments.  Nothing "free" there....\n\nTry www.freecycle.org, it may be the kind of website you are looking for.  Also try Craigslist; many people trade items on Craigslist.\n\nI hope this helps.

Try Freecycle.org  \n\nPeople list things they no longer want.  It can be anything, the only requirement is that they must give it away for free.\n\nRegister with the group in your area. When you find something you like, contact the owner and make arrangements to see it and pick it up. The best things go pretty fast.

Yes, if you buy too many of them very often. People can become addicted to anything. It becomes an addiction when it starts interfering with your everyday life and with your personal relationships.
