Freebie Alerts: Free Stuff App

This app is super cool, I highly recommend it for everyone.. It shows you the listings of free items that are posted across various different social media sites. So you can see items that are listed for free, all in one place, rather than having to visit each site separately. And it’s not all junk or garbage. People post furniture, some is still nice and fairly new, some are perfect for projects.. Theres appliances, both big and small. I see ALOT of home remodeling items and supplies, such as boxes of tiles, sinks, vanities, mirrors, cabinets, etc.. There’s just SO much stuff.. Cat/dog food, crafting supplies, office items, home decor, seasonal items, party (birthday, graduation, baby) supplies, food, clothes, shoes, coats, toys, books/magaiznes, I mean it’s crazy the amount of stuff you see posted on here. And the quality of a lot of these items is really good, items that could easily be sold instead of given away for free. Plus, the greatest thing about the app, in my opinion, is the ability to white list specific items that you’re looking for. There’s a white list you can enter keywords on, and you’ll only get notified if a listing pops up that has one of those key words in it. Which is super cool if you’re only interested in a few, very specific items, but don’t want to be bothered with anything else. So far, myself I’ve gotten plants, a printer (that works and wasn’t out of toner), 2 barstools, a 17lb bag of dog food, and some paint.. All for free. And if I had a truck, I would have gotten much more stuff, or tried to anyway. But ya, super cool app, definitely check it out!

The app is great! It allows me to find things I need or someone I know needs. One great aspect is that it helps keep things people have no use for or don’t want from ending up in the landfill. One issue that has nothing to do with the app itself, but people post a lot of “curb alerts”. This is not an eco friendly way to give things away. I understand that people don’t want face to face contact with strangers, especially during the pandemic, but that causes many people to drive to the address in hopes of getting things they could use or need, but if they aren’t close by, they’ve made a wasted trip. Those items could be left in a porch and the person who needs them get the address in a private message. Eg: someone trying to make ends meet and need baby items would have to stop, drop and roll... and possibly can’t afford the time or fuel to gamble that they may get them. Time and fuel wasted and possibly someone who is only getting free stuff to sell may be getting those items. I’m not sure why anyone would want to post their address publicly either. I’ve been fortunate enough to get items like a Sun Setter awning that has reduced my energy bills once mounted on the very exposed west wall with a lot of glass area of my house. I would not have been able to afford one, and the gentleman who listed it had it out of his way. I’ve met some very nice people in the area after responding to ads I would not have had time to search all the different apps it pulls from for items I could put to use. I highly recommend this app, and tell friends about it all the time. They live it too!

This app is somewhere you can go to find items that people have listed for free on several other apps. This app gathers a collection of items from these other various apps and lists everything here for people. So as you can imagine, it’s a much better process for everyone who is currently browsing the internet in search of various items. It saves you so much time. For example, I’ll share with you my recent experience, which is also my 1st time utilizing this app. A friend of mine told me about this app because he knew I was moving into a 1 bedroom apartment and would be needing various things. He also explained the way it would probably fulfill that urge I get quite often when I want to go to garage sales or thrift stores except this is better because it’s free. Truly. I’ve inherited lots of things from others and I’m sure there will be more. I’m going to be giving a lot of my belongings away on here sometime within this month because I have to clean out some of my belongings from a place I’ve been storing my stuff and also I’ll need to clean out my storage to make room for things I’m wanting to keep that don’t fit into my tiny 1 bedroom apartment I currently live in. By the way, I’ve had some people leave the items on their porch as a “porch pick up” and I’ve had some people offer to load the items in my car which was awesome! I hope you find this app as great as I have. Give it a try atleast. I promise, you’ll find something amazing for yourself!
