What's the strangest thing you've ever freecycled?
We just freecycled our weirdest thing today:

Coal scattered across our basement floor. I estimate it's been laying there about 50+ years.

Someone came by today with buckets, shoveled it up and off he went.

He estimated he'd get a months worth of heating out of it.

He also took some dessicated dogshit that was intermingled with the coal. That'll burn too.

:D

How 'bout you?

1. I'm going to be freecycling broken bricks and cinderblocks soon
I spent a chunk of yesterday afternoon smashing down a wall in front of our house. I plan on finishing it next week.

2. Shit, if I was closer, I'd take those broken bricks.
Need 'em for the garden

3. Well, hopefully someone around here will also want them
I've just been piling them up next to the house. It was quite a source of amusement for the neighborhood kids this weekend. Saturday, I was cutting stuff down with the chain saw, and Sunday, I was smashing up a wall.
