A Freecycle Freebie Follow-Up

To drive home the point of Saturday's (November 15, 2008) posting, "Free" Is the Operative Word for College Students, I have to share a follow-up story with you. Just after I posted to my blog, my husband mentioned that Saturday's email from Freecycle included a listing for a brand new printer cartridge appropriate for our printer, available locally. This printer cartridge retails for $45.99. Our cost: zippo, zero, nada, free! All we had to do was drive to the woman's home and retrieve it from her front steps. While we weren’t on the hunt for a new cartridge, it was well worth it - - don’t you think?
