I have heard a lot of people on here talk about a website "freecycling"
So I thought I would check it out...
Right now as i type this there is a debate going on my local freecycle page as to weather or not they should allow people to request things that may be later used for profit..
there is a gentleman who is retired and he offers to pick up any and all used electronics that he will strip down and recycle in a proper fashion..after he gets a few hundred pounds he can bring it to the recycling depot and get a few bucks for it..(trust me its not a lot he will be paid for this)
they are also suggesting that ppl who have chickens or rabbits may not be allowed to request buliding materials or egg crates because we can sell the eggs for profit, or use the materials for a rabbit hutch and later sell the rabbits for meat.
I can say that I do sell my eggs (I only sell about 3 dozen a MONTH..LOL my friend sand family keeps my "stock" very well rotated) but it comes no where close to even paying for food, never mind bedding and the hydro used in keeping the coop warm and lit, and as you know the list of expenses with pets can go on and on...
I can understand taking free stuff and then turning around and selling it on cragislist or e-bay..that should not be allowed...but for the pennies we would make selling the eggs or rabbits or scrap metal...well lets just say we can keep our day jobs cause we sure cant make a living from it...
thant my rant...lol thanks everyone
