Freecycle Tuesdays: Five Free Deals in Melrose [Aug. 30]

Take advantage of the Freecycle philosophy and pick-up a great deal.

The Freecycle philosophy is simple: Offer something to others that you no longer need; take something off of someone's hands—all for free. It's like a yard sale fell in love with recycling, got married and had a baby named Freecycle.

The Freecycle Melrose group is one of the most active in the area, offering tons of great deals. Click here for more information on the group, or to find out how to obtain any of these great items. 

Here is just a sampling of some of the deals we found offered this week. Note: Offers change all the time or are taken quickly.
