FREE

I just freaking LOVE free stuff. I don't care if its wood chips or diamonds, if it's free, I'm down. So imagine my delight upon discovering that www.Craigslist.org has a free stuff section. Imagine my further delight when my boyf brought home a gently used black futon without paying a penny. I almost don't want to tell anyone about it because it's such a goldmine but really, I can't shut up about it, I'm obsessed. Sure there's crap on it but there's some killer stuff you just can't beat - bedframes, dining room tables, kitchenware, even gift certificates. I especially condone this because it's an amazing form of recycling. If you think about all the packaging that goes into buying a new product - bubble wrap or styrofoam cushioning, boxes, plastic bags to wrap it in - it just makes so much sense to obtain used items whenever possible.
