Our dryer quit on us the other day. I decided to try freecycle to see if anyone had a dryer to offer they no longer needed. We got really lucky and a lovely woman had one to offer. It's a larger capacity than our old one and works so much better!
What is Freecycle? It's a grassroots and entirely nonprofit movement of people who are giving (& getting) stuff for free in their own towns. It's all about reuse and keeping good stuff out of landfills. Each local group is moderated by a local volunteer Membership is free. To sign up, create a yahoo account (if you don't already have one) and join your local group. Search by state, than by city. To get started, go to www.freecycle.org. It's a great way to unclutter the house and give items away to someone who can use them instead of just throwing them away.
