Montgomery Advertiser: Online group clears clutter with gift of giving
Well, how about getting stuff for free?
The Montgomery branch of Freecycle.org is part of a nationwide movement that lets local people post objects that are free for the taking. Since the non-profit, grassroots effort got its start in 2003 in Tucson, Ariz., it’s had nonstop action. There are now 4,763 groups and nearly 7 million members around the world.
The whole concept is based on that old axiom, “One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.”
