    Scouting around the threads looking for somewhere to put what I picked up today, I realised there is nowhere, so thought I'd start this thread. Anything goes as long as it's free.

    On the island we're allowed to take away anything from our amenity sites (tips) for re-cycling. Today I picked up two dozen 2 litre pots that are as good as new, they were clean as well. That's saved a few pennies! :)

          Freecycle! I get lots of pots and stuff for gardening from there. It does cover every area now and is also worldwide. :)

                we have one here but its not the best tbh

                we almost had a freebee today, there was a nice wooden chair in a skip we passed whilst walking the dogs, i have to say we were very tempted to get it for the garden but couldn't think where on earth we'd put it if we did...there really is nowhere. so that was the end of that....

                wasn't that a marvelous story...honestly why did i bother :what: :pcthwack:
