Gregory's Server@Lynnd @MyWoolyMastadon @econads @falcennial @daviddlevine @Cbfoley It would be great if every town had a free shop for recycling stuff they no longer want or need. We were lucky that one lady in town had an old shop that wasn't being used for anything so now 2x a week you can drop off unwanted items and/or pick something up that you can use - for free.

@MyWoolyMastadon @Lynnd @econads @falcennial @daviddlevine @Cbfoley Definitely a good idea for any dump to be doing. @MyWoolyMastadon @CodieneC @econads @falcennial @daviddlevine @Cbfoley that’s a great idea. I think that some dumps do that here in Ontario, but ours does not.  @econads @Lynnd @MyWoolyMastadon @falcennial @daviddlevine @Cbfoley @econads @Lynnd @MyWoolyMastadon @falcennial @daviddlevine @Cbfoley No problem - just that nowadays most charity shops are owned by big corps or churches & they like Feregi style profit  @econads @CodieneC @Lynnd @falcennial @daviddlevine @Cbfoley Yep. Salvation Army and Goodwill are horrible charities. Their prices for goods they got for free are exorbitant. A few bucks more and you could buy brand new. Lucky to have a religious charity in my area that keeps prices cheap. Saw a Tommy Bahamas shirt some time ago. The price was $5 like all of the other shirts. |

I was watching a show that was discussing the Maker mentality in GB. There was a garbage transfer station where people pulled up to discard their rubbish. They put usable but unwanted stuff in a corner where anyone could pick from to take home. Single pane windows, busted chairs that needed paint and woodworking, lamps missing shades, etc. It was brilliant. Plus it was a community where you HAD to take your own garbage to the dump.
