freecycle

Ever since Pann mentioned it in one of her blogs, I have been poking around on my county's freecycle. This is a site where you can offer up items you want to be rid of but dont want to doom to an eternal life in a landfill. I haven't had any need for items I have seen posted yet, but today I did complete my first successful cycle!
I have been packing to move to Philadelphia, as you all know, and I have a few things I know I can't bring with me. So I posted them. And about 30 minutes ago someone picked up 5 pairs of shoes that had alot of use left in them (a few I haven't even WORN before.... what? they were on sale!) I know I never would have thrown the shoes away but it is nice to know that someone else will be appreciating them now. One pair were my prom shoes from 2 years ago! Another I bought from Avon only to find I hated them. Yay... less stuff!

Now back to packing... >_<
