FreeCycle.org says “The Freecycle Network™ is made up of many individual groups across the globe. It's a grassroots and entirely nonprofit movement of people who are giving (& getting) stuff for free in their own towns.”

“When you want to find a new home for something -- whether it's a chair, a fax machine, piano, or an old door -- you simply send an e-mail offering it to members of the local Freecycle group.

Or, maybe you're looking to acquire something yourself. Simply respond to a member's offer, and you just might get it. After that, it's up to the giver to decide who receives the gift and to set up a pickup time for passing on the treasure.“

Co-Buyers says “Freecycle has really taken off and we are not surprised, it is a simple yet brilliant idea. If you are not involved, get involved!”

MoneySavingExpert.com says “MoneySaving is about cutting bills not cutting back. It's about being a sassy consumer. Companies try to screw us for profits. MoneySaving shows you how to screw them back.”

Co-Buyers says “Created and managed by Martin Lewis, it’s great!! Well worth the time and effort to look through this on a regular basis and certainly worth exploring for Co-Buyers as there are a number of ideas and tips discussed that would be of benefit when co-buying a property together."

Co-Buyers says “These days utility price rises are getting out of control, like house prices. It’s always worth checking every so often for a cheaper deal. We think price capping is also worth exploring but like everything watch out for the small print and things like leaving charges. uSwitch covers the lot as is worth a regular look.”
