I love free stuff.<\/p>\n<p>I'm always surprised to see what people are getting rid of. I slowly drive by people's curbs to see what's out there and always stop at yard sales. \u00a0I'm shameless about those things but some people are much shyer than I. With the FreeCycle network you don't have to feel weird picking up a desk off of someone's curb, the former owner knows your coming by to get it.\u00a0 The concept is pretty basic, rather than throwing out a lamp, you offer it to someone in your area then you make arrangements to have it picked up.<\/p>\n<p>Visit\u00a0 Freecycle's website, enter in your city, pick the closet location to you then hit on the join this group link. \u00a0You can see what's available in your area or post some of your own goods you don't need any more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<a href=\"https:\/\/www.befrugal.com\/blog\/standout-sites\/freecycle\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\" class=\"excerptimage alignleft wp-post-image tfe\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><p>You know the moto, \"one persons trash is another's treasure\" so why not see if you can find some new treasure on FreeCycle!<a class=\"read-more\" title=\"Freecycle\" href=\"https:\/\/www.befrugal.com\/blog\/standout-sites\/freecycle\/\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[671,692,1145,1349,1377],"class_list":["post-923","post","type-post","status-archive","format-standard","hentry","category-standout-sites","tag-free","tag-freecycle","tag-networking","tag-recycling","tag-reusing"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.befrugal.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/923","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.befrugal.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.befrugal.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.befrugal.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.befrugal.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=923"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.befrugal.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/923\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.befrugal.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=923"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.befrugal.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=923"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.befrugal.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=923"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
