Give a little, Get a little

FreecycleFinder

Freecycle is an awesome group of people on the net that brings together local people that want to give away the stuff they don't want anymore (as opposed to throwing it in the trash), in touch with other people who may want different items. The Des Moines area has a TON of people who are giving and asking for items you may either want to get or get rid of! It's really awesome!

Just in one day, in the Des Moines area, I've seen people giving away furnature, vacuumes, lawn mowers, clothes, and even coupons that other people could benefit from and use! I imagine that if it weren't for this local resource, these items would have otherwise ended up in the trash dump. I'm proud to see the internet working in such a fashion as to help out the local community.
