Day 211 - Crazy Straws

Today I am offering 2 super crazy straws. They go in your mouth circle around like eye glasses and then in the cup. Super fun! Never used - wouldn't your kids love them!!!

Day 210 - Palm Car Charger

Today I am offering an old Palm Car Charger. Neither of us have Palm phones any longer, so they don't do us a big of good! Hopefully they will help someone else.

Day 209 - LP Zoo Coupons

Today I am offering 2 coupons for the LP Zoo. They are for 50% off a stroller rental. Not sure if they will go, but I am willing to mail them to the taker. We'll see!!!

Day 208 - 4 Mens Belts - Taken

The belts have been taken. Hopefully they don't continue to shrink on the next person.

Day 208 - 4 Mens Belts

Today I am offering 4 mens belts. 2 are dressier - maybe for khaki pants and 2 are more casual. Belts are size 34 and 36 - but the 36 runs small - so says Dave. Not sure how a belt can run small... But, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. Maybe the smurfs made it and they use smaller rulers??

Day 207 - 3 Kids Books - GONE!

That did not take too long. The books are on my porch waiting for a pick-up tomorrow!

Day 207 - 3 Kids Books

Today I am offering 3 kids books - Duck for President, I Knew You Could (a Thomas the Train Book) and Smash Crash. There is one Duck book we like - this one is pretty annoying. The I Knew You Could book is just not great. And, Smash Crash is totally annoying!!! So, we are bundling them together and getting rid of them.

What kid book do you dislike- but have to read over and over and over and over...........................

Day 206 - 10 Books - Left Behind Series

The books are out of my house! Good news!!

Day 206 - Left Behind Series

Today I am offering 10 books from the Left Behind series. I was really into the series many years ago and bought most of them and just don't need them anymore. The series is a bit old, but I think there still might be interest.

Day 205 - Kaplan GMAT Prep Book

Today I am offering a Kaplan prep book for the GMAT exam. My husband probably used it when he was entering business school. I am sure it will be helpful to someone else about to take that tricky exam. Let's hope so!

Day 204 - Pregnancy Tests - GONE!

More than one taker. You'd think my momma group has had enough kids, but of course there will be more to come!

Day 204 - Pregnancy Tests

We're done having kids - and today I got rid of a few unused pregnancy tests and ovulation predictors. In all honesty, I did not freecycle them, I offered them to a group of good friends. I just thought it was way too much information for a group of strangers - kind of like you all!

Day 203 - Kids Blocks - GONE!

The blocks have found a new home! So glad someone else will enjoy them.

Wednesday, July 22, 2009

Day 203 - Kids Blocks

Today I am offering a cute set of pink blocks. They were a gift from my OB when I delivered my twin girls. They are super cute - they have letters, words and cute shapes on the blocks. We already have another set of blocks - and the kids just don't really play with them anymore. But, I am sure some little kid will have lots of fun with them!

Day 201 & 202 - Rollerblades

They blades have skated away! Hooray.

Tuesday, July 21, 2009

Day 202 - Rollerblades

Another pair of roller blades... Now hopefully they will both be gone...

Monday, July 20, 2009

Day 201 - Rollerblades

Today I am offering a good pair of roller blades. For a birthdya several years ago Dave and I both got roller blades and enjoyed using them. But, we don't use them now that we've got kids and don't have the best place to go roller blading. So, I hope someone else can enjoy them!

Day 200 - Maternity Pants

Today is day 200!!! That seems like a big accomplishment!

Today I am offering 3 pairs of maternity pants. 2 are work type black pants from the Gap and one is just a plain navy sweat pant. They were given to me with lots of other maternity clothes, but they are a bit snug. So, another belly they shall cover.

I am sure they will go quickly!

Day 199 - 3 Bags of Top Soil - GONE!

So many people, so little soil! So glad to have it gone!!!

Day 199 - 3 Bags of Top Soil

Today I am offering 3 bags of top soil. We bought a zillion to fill in the area from our driveway to our grass because of our new driveway last fall. But, we have a few extra and they are collecting dust.

Day 198 - Ice Cream Bowls - FLOP!

I am surprised, but the ice cream bowls did not go. They are so cute... Bummer.

Friday, July 17, 2009

Day 196 - Old Computer - GONE!

Yeah - the old computer is gone! That's great news!

Day 198 - Ice Cream Bowls

Today I am offering 2 super cute ice cream bowls. They were give to my girls from their wonderful babysitter. But, we already have too many plates/bowls that we jsut don't use them. I am sure they will be snapped up!

Day 197 - Mylar Balloons - GONE!

A little surprised to say, but the balloons are gone! Refilling old Mylar balloons is a great way to save $$.

Thursday, July 16, 2009

Day 197 - Mylar Balloons

Today I am offering 2 old Mylar Balloons. They don't have helium, but can be filled super cheap at any store that sells balloons. We used these for my girls 3rd birthday party and then for our roomates kids 2nd birthday and they are ready for another party!!

Wednesday, July 15, 2009

Day 196 - Old Computer

Today I am offering a computer that's 9 years old and has no hard drive! But, maybe someonce can think of something interesting to do with it - get a new drive, recycle it, whatever. It served us well for a long time, but is no longer something that can work for us.

Day 193 - Book - Nights in Rodanthe - FLOP!

Apparently I am the only moron who might want this book - and I don't even want it anymore!! Nobody wants the book - not a surprise. Boo hoo...

Day 195 - Potty Books - GONE!

Gone at the speed of lightening! Literally had several responses within a few minutes of posting! Let's hope they wash hands...

Day 195 - Potty Books

Today I am offering 2 Potty Books. They were used when my daughters were potty training. I think the concept of used potty books is pretty gross, but I guess if you are supposed to wash hands after going/reading it should be okay. I think they'll go!

Monday, July 13, 2009

Day 192 - Note Cards - GONE!

Not a surprise, but the note cards are gone!! I had many people want them. Let's hope they get picked up quickly.

Day 194 - Vegetarian International Cuisine Cookbook - GONE!

Not a surprise, but the cookbook has been taken. I had many who wanted it. I am going to copy recipes I like tonight so I am not left high and dry!

Day 194 - Vegetarian International Cuisine Cookbook

Today I am offering the Vegetarian International Cuisine Cookbook. My Mother-In-Law gave it to me and it has many nice recipes. But, I never use it and so it must go - just like most other things in the house!!

Sunday, July 12, 2009

Day 193 - Book - Nights in Rodanthe

Today I am offering a Nicholas Sparks book - Nights in Rodanthe. I read this a long time ago and don't remember it. I saw them movie somewhat recently and it was terrible. Maybe I did not read the book, because if they are similar I surely never would have watched the movie. Seriously, I am not a fan of Nicholas Sparks - despite the fact I've read several of his books - kind of like Jodi Picoult - I read it but don't like it.

The funny thing is that as I was freecycling with my husband I asked him to look in his nightstand for something to get rid of - and lo and behold he found this. So, maybe it is his book!

Saturday, July 11, 2009

Day 192 - Note Cards

Today I am offering a new package of note cards and envelopes. They would be nice for keeping in touch or a thank you. They are cream with a red boarder and vintage red dress. A friend gave me these and I just don't use them or need them. I am sure someone will enjoy them...

Friday, July 10, 2009

Day 191 - Indian Bracelets - GONE!

2 little girls will be wearing new bracelets tomorrow!!! I am a little surprised they have been taken!

Day 191 - Indian Bracelets

Today I am offering a handful of pretty blue and gold costume bracelets that Dave got in India several years ago. They are very pretty, but too small for me. They'd fit someone with a pretty tiny wrist - or maybe a girl in high school. But, they are pretty...

Day 190 - High Chair Activity Pad - GONE!

I am a little surprised it went this quickly, but super happy to have it gone!!

Day 190 - High Chair Activity Pad

Today I am offering an activity pad that goes on top of an Evenflo high chair. Or, you can just put it on your kids lap and they would have fun with it. This was on my daughters high chair. But, I sold the chair and the buyer did not want to take the pad with them. So, it is in the garage - along with a zillion other things I can freecycle. I hope some kid can enjoy this!!

Day 189 - Glow Sticks - GONE!

Wow - I think I had 15 people want the glow sticks. Seriously, a $2 value and that many people want to drive to my house for them. How crazy is that!!

Wednesday, July 8, 2009

Day 189 - Glow Sticks

Today I am offering 2 unopened packages of glow sticks. I am sure my kids would love them, but I am just not that adventurous. After my friends 3 year old bit into his and got the goo all over I just decided we're not ready for glow sticks - despite how much fun they are. I do have a dream of sneaking into a farm and giving the cows glow stick necklaces so you can see them in the dark, but Dave thinks that's crazy... Whatever.

Tuesday, July 7, 2009

Day 188 - Camera Battery

Today I am offering a perfectly fine camera battery. It works like a charm - just not for our camera!! And, of course we can't return it! So, it needs a new home. Hopefully we'll be saving someone like $40!

Monday, July 6, 2009

Day 187 - 2 Place-mats - GONE!

So glad I did not put these in the trash - they have been taken for a few boys that I am sure will love them!

Day 187 - 2 Place-mats

Today I am offering 2 dinosaur place-mats. they come with an erasable marker so your little ones can draw and do activities on the 2 sided mat. The girls just for them as goodie bags. But, I think goodie bags are the devil! And, we already have too many place-mats. So, hopefully they will find a new home quickly.

Day 186 - Tropical Fish Food - GONE!

The fish food has found a new home - full of Molly's!!

Day 185 - Binoculars - GONE!

Not a surprise, they binoculars are taken. A little girl who enjoys watching birds will be using them. Dave seems very happy with this result.

Day 186 - Tropical Fish Food

Today I am offering a bottle of fish food for tropical fish. We got this food when we had little frogs that needed solid food, not flakes. But, the frogs are in heaven - and this has been in the garage. Hopefully it goes!

Day 184 - Picture Frame - GONE!

It took a few days, but the frame is gone! And, today I actually had multiple people ask for it!

Saturday, July 4, 2009

Day 185 - Binoculars

Today I am offering a pair of binoculars. I got these for Dave a hundred years ago and we've never used them. I thought they were going to come in handy some day and the day has never arrived. I just saw them in the garage and got permission from Dave to pass them on. But, there is definite hesitation in his voice about giving them away. Maybe because they were a gift from me or maybe because he has dreams of using them. But, he agreed and I don't think it will take long for them to hit the road.

Friday, July 3, 2009

Day 184 - Picture Frame

Today I am offering a super cute 4x6 photo frame. It is a beach scene with sand, shells, a sky, boat and 2 dolphins. I don't recall who gave us this, but really think someone will enjoy using it. We'll see..........

Thursday, July 2, 2009

Day 183 - 2 Old Fashion Purses

Today I am offering 2 0ld fashioned purses. Probably best for kiddies. No more information at this time...

Day 182 - Bag Of Stuffed Animals - FLOP! - GONE!!

I jumped the gun - the stuffed animals have been taken. They will be dog toys for a woman who works with an animal shelter. Works for me!

Day 182 - Bag Of Stuffed Animals - FLOP!

What a bummer, the bag of stuffed animals was not taken. I don't have the heart to tell the girls...

Wednesday, July 1, 2009

Day 182 - Bag Of Stuffed Animals

Today's items were given by my 3 year old girls. E&E are giving up a bag of stuffed animals - a dog, a cat, a few rabbits, and a few others. At breakfast we talked about what we could give away and they were more than happy to part with these items. Sweet.

And - we're 1/2 way through the year. I think this might be my first resolution ever that I've kept going this long! Do you think I can make it through the rest of the year - and have a baby! Yikes.

Day 181 - 3 Jump Ropes - GONE!

These are finally gone. I had nearly given up hope and then got an e-mail. Phew!!!!!!!!!!!
