    Default Freecycle fun

    What is the strangest thing you have seen given away at freecycle?

    I was checking out a group that is just like it, but under a diferent name for a local one and a lady was getting rid of all her wedding stuff, she was getting a divorce and wanted it all gone!

    I haven't seen to many strange things given away. However I'm routinely shocked at what people ask for (boats, laptops, cars etc)
