Ours changed a few weeks ago. You have to specify offered/ taken etc first, followed by the item, then the area in brackets. |

Sticking to the formula given by a previous poster, I am able to post on Freecycle. Had some surplus garden stuff taken this morning. |

Daff, have you tried using Gumtree, it's easy to use, and there is a freebie thread so you can get rid of stuff you are happy to give away, also there is a wanted and a Swap thread. |

Lol Liz... some of it was from freecycle... the toddler bed and the cot, and the radiator covers which didn't fit any of my radiators, lol...... but the yards and yards and yards of curtain material... well, I shall feel a bit of a wrench letting them go!! |

I won't say where I am located, just so I don't get accused of sabotage BUT I heard that our local freecycle mods are 'on the take' under a whole waft of psuedonims koff! On a diff note, I tried to thank someone the other day and the mods refused to accept the posting! |
