When it comes to free stuff there’s a site that I often recommend – and that’s Freecycle.
This handy site lets you get stuff for free and give away stuff that you no longer want. This saves waste and money too.
Have a browse on there to see if you can find anyone giving away free gardening supplies. You could find things like planters, compost, and gardening tools on there for free.
Freecycle is a website where people can give away stuff and get stuff for free. So, have a look on there as you may be able to find people offering free envelopes on there.

Whether you’ve recently inherited an old curio cabinet or have owned one for a while, you might notice that they’re not the most modern or stylish piece of décor. Before you consider getting rid of it, think of all the ways you could liven up the piece with a DIY refresh. With just some sandpaper and some chalk paint, you can create a lovely vintage look for a beautiful shabby chic upgrade to your bathroom storage options, according to a simple TikTok how-to.
If you don’t have a curio but would like to try the DIY upgrade anyway, the TikTok video recommends searching Facebook Marketplace, where they’re often listed for sale. Other options are apps like NextDoor and OfferUp, which allow people to sell personal items in their local area. For older Internet users, Craigslist and Freecycle still exist, but always be wary about posting personal information, meeting people at their homes, or allowing people to come to yours. And don’t underestimate the thrill of finding an unexpected gem in a thrift store like the Salvation Army, Volunteers of America, or small organization shops in your town.

The Freecycle Network is a tremendous community-driven platform where people give away items they no longer need, including baby clothes and accessories. It’s a grassroots movement of people giving (and getting) stuff for free in their hometowns.
How to Find Baby Items: Sign up on the Freecycle website and search for baby-related giveaways in your local area. You can often find listings for baby clothes, toys, and sometimes larger items like cribs or strollers.
In a world where waste is becoming a growing concern, organizations like Freecycle have taken up the responsibility of promoting and preserving the environment by providing an alternative to throwing away gently used items. Freecycle is a grassroots and entirely nonprofit movement of people who are giving and getting stuff for free in their own towns. It’s all about reuse and keeping good stuff out of landfills while connecting people in their communities.
Aside from using your social network, there are other platforms that can help you get a free laptop. Two popular options are Freecycle and Craigslist.
Freecycle is a nonprofit movement of people giving and getting items for free in their own towns. You can sign up for free and browse through a list of available items, including laptops. You can post a wanted ad for a laptop and wait for someone in your local community to respond. You can also join local Facebook groups dedicated to Freecycle to increase your chances of finding a laptop.
If you don’t have a purpose for gently used light strands that still work, try finding them a new home. You can list them for free on Freecycle, Facebook Marketplace, or Nextdoor. You could also gift them to crafty, DIY-minded friends, family, or neighbors, or look for a community organization, such as an after-school program, church, shelter, or assisted living center that might accept donations of holiday decorations.
