Request: Camping cots - adult size (Kitchener) Received Need 2 cots but if you have 1 I'm still interested. A little musty smelling ok. Actually mouldy won't work. Can pick up same day or next.

Request: Tent, camping gear, cooler (Kitchener) Tent, tarp, pegs, rope, cooler, sleeping bags, blankets... any camping-type gear. SOON is more important than size, condition or completeness of tents. Random extra parts are also welcome. If there's a tent, we'll pick up whatever other gear you may find alongside it, no need to specify. Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge - porch pickup (drop offs can also be arranged). If you're farther away, including Guelph, we can still potentially arrange pickup. If you have other gear, but not a tent, we're still definitely interested, but an approximate list would be helpful. Thank you for assisting The 519 Community Collective, in assisting our neighbours.

Request: Microphone - must function (Kitchener) Expired Microphone(s) for use during hybrid meetings for a variety of grassroots community groups. Wireless would be ideal, but wired, and USB compatible could still be useful. Maybe you've upgraded to a better quality for recording, but your old one still works? Currently, during meetings, anyone attending online, can't hear people in the room Unless the host repeats, which slows things down, and is unfair in terms of accessibility. Thank you for your consideration Can Pick up. Sooner is helpful.

Free: Xmas Tree 6 1/2 foot (Kitchener) Gifted Complete. Photo does not have branches arranged, I was just verifying it's all there, and nothing is broken. If you, or someone you know is having a rough season, doesn't have a vehicle, and they have said a tree would brighten their holidays, I can try to arrange porch delivery in Kitchener/New Dundee/Cambridge. Box isn't "gift worthy" if you're arranging this for someone else. (If you don't get this listing, MCC Thrift on Kent still has a number of trees at reasonable prices.) Wishing you all a sustainable-as-possible holiday, with the traditions you enjoy most.

Free: 300+ LED white xmas lights fixable? (Kitchener) Gifted A project. Not currently working. Spare bulbs included. 4 bulbs are the original included spares in package. Strings of white, and warm white LED lights. Estimating 300 bulbs. 1 string, 30+ blue. Faded. See 3rd photo for condition. Some were previously capped. Some sockets are currently empty Apparently someone attempted cutting and splicing strings together at some point. One of these worked, up to the splice, until I took it apart to try to get the full length working... ...and I'm never going to get to this project. If you can't get (all of them) them to work: The most environmentally responsible disposal method I can find currently available in the region, is to cut the bulbs off with wire cutters, and the wires (with casing) can be donated or sold as ewaste cables - which pay a better per lb price than devices. I'd rather someone has an opportunity to fix and use them, or learn something, rather than just junking them.
