"Freecycle" sounds like a good idea-and what a way to get appliances and such for your collection---FREE.Haven't heard of it until now.Maybe this could be put in the papers,want add magazines for folks that don't have computers.there was a dump station in Virginia-at the Prinnce William County landfill-called the "Too Good To Waste Place"folks would place furniture,clothes,appliances,there for people going to that dump to look over.If they want it--they could take it.If the items were unclaimed-they went to the fill.Of the times I went to that dump--no Hi-Fis.Mostly fridges and furniture.remember one woman hugging a fridge she wanted-"ITS MINE!!"until hubby could drive over in the truck to load it.
