Note: this page is now obsolete. Back in the day, I found less stuff and so was able to devote more time to these giveaways. I now give things away by leaving it on the curb where other people can find it, which is easier and much less time consuming. I leave this page up as a testament to the kind of stuff you can find a taker for if you put it on the Craigslist free section (and other similar websites). These are still valuable tools if you’re looking to declutter or minimize your possessions.
