Free Stuff on Adverts

Sir Osis of Liver.

Whats with all the full wheelie bins on it lately?
Who in their right mind expects to off load that sh1te,some even asking for money.

I gave away kids stuff and it was on sale again a few days later. Really annoying as she sold a cotbed to someone for 30 quid and it was someone like that i had hoped it would go to.
Gave away a half broken camera once and a lovely man met me and gave me a sketch of his as a thank you.
Now I give away free kids stuff on sites like rollercoaster or magicmum and you can check their posts to ensure they are genuine.
Anything else goes to charity shops and clothes bins so hopefully people who need them get them.
If I buy something from a site I try to make sure its not coming from one of these leeches by checking their history.

Some people look like they are selling on everything in their house that's not nailed down, crappy items - used cheap flip flops, bras etc. they literally have hundreds of items in their sold/active list.

I was scanning through some of the free stuff on Adverts and saw "Oxegen".
At first I thought someone was giving away some air.:o:o

I have never got anything off boards. But my grandfather got a drawer unit that someone was about to donate to saint vicente de Paul about 20 years ago. My brother still uses it but it's so rotten

A bit off topic but would make an interesting conversation piece http://www.adverts.ie/crazy-random-stuff/a-pair-of-reg-kray-paintings/3499199

not free stuff on adverts.ie, but freegle.

this last week I've given away 4 bikes.

I've also got 3 back. two were dead so I built one good one out of the parts.

so out of 7 that COULD have gone to landfill, only one frame did, and 6 people are now happy that they have a new bike.

over the years, I've got a dining room table & 6 chairs, a banjo, 5 or 6 guitars and I've given away a heap of stuff too.

don't diss folks generosity.

I gave away a smashed up aquarium just so I didn't have to find a skip for it... People will take anything once it's free.
