people who offer items do you have to pay them or are they giving them away?

I have had a few things from mine and given away buggies which were not all that and getting in the way :)

I need help too, I read on here that you can get lots of free items on freecycle so I registered but can't see anything on there!

I joined Freecycle but left after a couple of weeks as I was getting about 30 Emails a day.

You can adjust the settings so you don't get hundreds of emails.

I am on my local 3 - I got my guinea pig hutch and run off it.

I have also had a kids chair, various toys and some kids garden chairs.

So far I havent offered anything as I tend to put them on Eaby with a 99p start and see what happens!!:blush:

But it is good.:thumbsup:

Sounds good, I have been trying to join my local freecycles for years but they never except me (ignore my application) for some weird reason:(

I like the freebees you can get from netmums:thumbsup:

There are 3 e-mail settings - one sends e-mails through everytime something is added- one sends just a digest once a day and one is no-emails. if you cannot see how to do it ask the moderator to do it for you.
