So I am a member of a yahoo group called freecycle seattle. It is a place where people post stuff they want to get rid of and you can also post if you want something.<br><br>
So I thought what the hey and said I wanted cloth diapers and covers. Well I have gotten some from 3 people so far. Yesterday I met a woman at costco and she gave me a whole garbage bag full of contoured diapers it looks like they are meant to go in a diaperwrap cover and some dappi covers. Another woman gave me a bunch of biobottoms covers and DSQ prefolds and I got some PF from someone else.<br><br>
The website is <a href="http://www.freecycle.org/" target="_blank">http://www.freecycle.org/</a> you can find a local group if there is one in your area. What a way to save moolah.<br><br>
But I have dibs on the Seattle group! :LOL

I know it is so awesome OT: We got rid of a water heater and a washer. That is stuff that got saved from going to the dump and adding to the landfills.<br><br>
I am just really excited that I got so many free diapers! <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/thumb.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="thumbs up">

[mimim]

Wow! Thanks for that info!

 

[feebeeglee]

I joined my local group!<br><br>
Thanks for posting this, it looks neat.

 

[boycrazy]

One was just started on March 14th in our town!! Very cool. I joined.

Freecycle rules! As a member of the original group down here in the desert, I must say that it is indeed a great concept revived. We have given away boatloads of stuff to individuals and nonprofits. It is a great way to pass on things that you cannot donate to thrift stores.<br><br>
soccerchic21, I'm definitely going to check out the free diaper idea...wish I had thought of that before now!

I am the queen of buying a WAHMs seconds before a new diaper. And I thought hmmm I wonder when I joined freecycle. Diapers for free it is so awesome. Of course I don't think I am ever going to get a pinhead or a wool soaker but fluff is fluff right?

 

[Pinoikoi]

Well, there wasn't one for my city, but one for my dad's summer job and one for a neighboring city, so I signed up in two places! We'll see what I get.

 

[poisonedapple]

Well they actually have one for my city, unfortunately it has 3 members and NO messages.

 

[Pinoikoi]

Spicesnail- maybe those other 3 members are all sitting at home on piles of diapers just wondering what in the world to do with them...<br><br>
Send a message, maybe it will get them started.

 

[Trishas Tribe]

Wow!! Thanks for the link<img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/thumb.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="thumbs up"> I joined the group for my town and am waiting on my membership to be approved.

Im going to just have to think of something to give away first, it says the first post cant be a 'wanted' one. That would be great if someone had some.

I'm a member of the Spokane Freecycle, it's great. Haven't gotten anything from it yet, but it's a great group. Might have to do an ISO cloth diapers myself on there!

 

[wawoof]

We're members of our local freecycle - it's a great group, preventing lots of stuff from ending up in a landfill <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="smile">

 

[Book Addict Jen]

I wish we had one! I am already on WAY too much to start one for my city.

 

[pinkmommy]

Oh thanks! There is one right in my area and a few others fairly close by. I noticed a post at one of the groups: wanted cloth daipers and covers.<br><br>
I think I might post this: wanted: cash! <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/wink1.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="wink1">
