You get 25% off an item if you trade in an old item. I think the list includes:<br /> -Car Seats<br /> - Cribs/Bassinets<br /> - High Chairs<br /> - Bouncy Seats</p> <p>I am pretty sure you can add a registry completion coupon (10%) off to make a pretty sweet deal. I think we are going to pick up a second car seat. We have a Boulevard but want to also get a Graco MyRide. They are usually $179 but after the 25% off it will be $134 and then another 10% off would bring it closer to $100. I'm so excited! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-heard-of-or-used-freecycleorg#post-78504 Mon, 20 Feb 2012 12:26:58 +0000 mamabolt 78504@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have used it...I set up the emails for daily digest so I don't get overwhelmed with them. I've gotten some maternity pants on there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-heard-of-or-used-freecycleorg#post-78502 Mon, 20 Feb 2012 12:24:55 +0000 katdevargas 78502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to use it, but like others have said, it's kind of hit or miss. I found some treasures on there, but you've really got to dig or just be lucky. it's also a nice way to get rid of stuff, but I'd rather just donate, honestly, &amp; get the tax write off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-heard-of-or-used-freecycleorg#post-78112 Sat, 18 Feb 2012 23:36:07 +0000 tequiero21 78112@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i've unsubscribed. unfortunately, it's more of a pain than anything. if i need to get rid of anything, i'll just donate it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-heard-of-or-used-freecycleorg#post-78000 Sat, 18 Feb 2012 19:00:56 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 78000@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've used it a couple of times - it's been great to get rid of things that I might otherwise throw out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-heard-of-or-used-freecycleorg#post-77997 Sat, 18 Feb 2012 18:44:42 +0000 yoursilverlining 77997@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tequiero21: You can change your email preference to "daily digest" (or something like that). You'll only get 1 email a day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-heard-of-or-used-freecycleorg#post-77992 Sat, 18 Feb 2012 18:26:19 +0000 Bluebonnet 77992@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've used it several times to get rid of stuff. It's a good way to get things out of your house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-heard-of-or-used-freecycleorg#post-77351 Fri, 17 Feb 2012 12:24:42 +0000 tequiero21 77351@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sorrycharlie: hmmm that's a very good idea. i do have an email that i "sign up" things with. but i do check it regularly, so i should create a 3rd one haha. one is my regular legit mail. 2nd is my spam mail. 3rd is my spam spam mail. lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-heard-of-or-used-freecycleorg#post-77346 Fri, 17 Feb 2012 12:17:05 +0000 sorrycharlie 77346@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tequiero21: I set up a separate email for it..I use "lastnamespam@gmail.com" for things that I don't feel like getting constant emails from. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-heard-of-or-used-freecycleorg#post-77340 Fri, 17 Feb 2012 12:09:27 +0000 tequiero21 77340@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>omg. i'm getting a ton of emails. may not be worth it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-heard-of-or-used-freecycleorg#post-75368 Wed, 15 Feb 2012 19:05:01 +0000 sorrycharlie 75368@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've gotten rid of quite a bit on there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-heard-of-or-used-freecycleorg#post-75320 Wed, 15 Feb 2012 17:10:29 +0000 Cchoi4 75320@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've used to to give away a lot of inherited baby stuff that I did not need as well as get rid of random household things that just took up room. I'd say its a little more reliable than craigslist when it comes to people showing up at the arrangement time/place. (I've had one person flake on me but many more on craigslist who flake) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-heard-of-or-used-freecycleorg#post-75302 Wed, 15 Feb 2012 16:11:45 +0000 yoursilverlining 75302@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I’ve been signed up with them for a while and used it a few times to quickly get rid of things I didn’t want/need anymore, but I haven’t had any luck getting anything on it (other people had emailed for items before I did, rats!!). I have had luck getting some great deals on baby items on my local craigslist recently.</p> <p>@bluestriped bee: You can select to only get 1 email a day – I think it’s called the “digest”. I just get one email a day from them, usually in the morning. But by the time you get the one email, a lot of stuff is already taken, so that’s a trade off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-heard-of-or-used-freecycleorg#post-75296 Wed, 15 Feb 2012 15:47:54 +0000 BSB 75296@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I heard of them a few years ago. I subscribed but you get a TON of emails. You really have to have a lot of free time to go through those emails. It's a great idea, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-heard-of-or-used-freecycleorg#post-75291 Wed, 15 Feb 2012 15:29:41 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 75291@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've heard of it but I've never actually used it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-heard-of-or-used-freecycleorg#post-75282 Wed, 15 Feb 2012 15:05:46 +0000 tequiero21 75282@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrscheesefries: haha that IS hilarious. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-heard-of-or-used-freecycleorg#post-75213 Wed, 15 Feb 2012 12:53:59 +0000 mrscheesefries 75213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom has used it a couple of times to get rid of things.</p> <p>Funny story: she got rid of an old treadmill to someone who wanted to use it to walk his goats. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-heard-of-or-used-freecycleorg#post-75176 Wed, 15 Feb 2012 12:23:59 +0000 PitBulLover 75176@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to use it maybe 3 years ago. It's a great way to quickly get rid of things and give it a new home. I also got a bag of clothes off of freecycle. Most stuff in there was crap but found a few treasures. I haven't been on the site in a while though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-anyone-heard-of-or-used-freecycleorg#post-75173 Wed, 15 Feb 2012 12:21:08 +0000 tequiero21 75173@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>heard about it for the first time today. any use it? like it? </p>
