Freecycle in the news
March 24, 2005A couple of months ago… was it that long ?
January 2005, yep it’s been that long.
I found on line; and then ultimately started my own
group associated with the frecycle.org network.
A group dedicated to keeping useful items out of landfills,
and in the process one helps others acquire things they need.
see www.freecycle.org for more information.
It was an involved process based on the local need
and my abilities as a moderator.
I was accepted and began my promotions.
Slow at it’s inception, (membership requests are still slow).
I opted to post a press release to various local newspapers.
Yesterday, while shopping for Easter stuff for the kids,
my cell rang. They are doing a piece and want a quote from me
and an action shot of members exchanging items.
Excellent !…
My quotes… well lets all just hope the columnist
can make some sense of it.
As a child in the store whined for candy from his mother.
I tried to come up with intelligent quotes to feed this reporter.
I’m hoping for the best.
I posted to the list for a volunteer to do the action shot.
I have no desire to be photographed for our newspaper.
Although he stated if no exchanges with members were imminent,
he could come to my home and snap a shot of me working on my computer.
This will be a last, very last resort option.
The advertisement will be good.
I’ve papered the area with flyers…
Maybe this will help.
I am pleased.
See I can find good news…

Join your local group.
It’s free.
A massive cult freecycle is taking over the recycling world and making it’s members believe that it is totally free. What they do not freely show you upon joining is that they have a budget of $150,000 and counting which they receive from individual and corporate donations .
This group is for former members who have escaped and want to share their experiences of how they were brainwashed and subsequently taken advantage of one gift at a time.
After all it was your items that you offered up and not theirs. Why are you not making anything out of it? Because you have a big heart and want to give. So why should Freecycle be making anything? Please use an email address that you do not or have never used on Freecycle. Remember they have a Freecycle Mod Squad where they secretively pass around information about members and black ball them. So now that you are here.
There is no need to fear here. It is time to recover from this addiction and discover other people like yourself who have felt cheated with caring words about items not ending up in a landfill. Too bad your items are generating money for Freecycle.
Tell us your experiences about Freecycle so that others around the world will not get caught up in this scheme and end up regretting it.
Moderated to keep those freecycle cult members from posting.
Please feel free to post and reply.
Take the above banner link to us and support our recovering members thanks.
Once you join the freecycle.orgy it is hard to stop because after all you are getting done good one gift at a time. Now it is time to turn on over and assume another position.
