spake thus:

For an excellent resource for connecting people who have usable items
they don't want with people who would like to have them, check out
www.freecycle.org. It's set up as a way to keep things out of
landfills, when possible.

Don't want to rain on your parade, but no, it's not an excellent resource,
at least from my experience. It seems to be full of messages from nice,
well-intentioned middle-class folks who are concerned about finding a good
home for the rest of that package of paper plates, or whatever. It is
available, but be prepared for disappointment. (Plus, I don't care for the
way it's implemented as a whole bunch of Google groups, but that's a
different complaint.)

It is what it is. I have two TV's, a cordless phone and a couple of other
things - all saved from the waste stream.
