Re: contain elements that could run out in the near future

I consider the tip as the last resort for manky old stuff. Anything that has life left in it will go on trading website for free.

When I closed my business I needed to get rid of a lot of stuff in a hurry. I put a fridge and microwave up for free and a young couple that just got married and were broke got it. Since my aunt gave them to me to use in my shop, I see it as paying it forward.

If it weren't for lawyers and insurance companies, many things taken to landfill could be given a new life rather than just buried.
