I just signed up for the NYC group at Freecycle.org, a web site dedicated to connecting givers and takers. It’s a great place to frequently check for free miscellaneous items and to list your unwanted goods.

Someone I know saved thousands of dollars nabbing a free set of slighty-used cabinetry from Freecycle for her kitchen renovation project. Right now I see a listing for 4 free ping pong tables in Greenwich Village!

Oh, the fun begins!
