Free: Large Pet Ramp (Downers Grove/Darien border) Gifted 305d - Large, STURDY, Heavy RAMP for pets. I received from someone here on trash nothing for my arthritic cat, but it's too big for my space. Could use a cleaning (this is the condition I received it in).

Request: Baby Wipes Warmer (Downers Grove/Darien border) Received 1y - Seeking a warmer for baby wipes. I care for my elderly mother who has cancer & many other health issues (without getting graphic, I'll just say we use A LOT of wipes)...due to her health issues she is always cold...I'd love it if I could make cleaning her up even a teeny bit less uncomfortable for her with warm wipes. We both live on Social Security (she retirement, me disability), can't afford to buy. If anyone has one they don't need, I'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance. Request: Keurig-type Coffee Maker (Downers Grove/Darien border) Expired 1y - Seeking a Keurig-type/pod-type (prefer with adapter to use ground coffee but not deal breaker)/single serving coffee maker in good working condition. Brand, color not important, but need smaller machine/smaller footprint. It's for my elderly, sick mother. (We can't afford..both disabled, live on Social Security.) Thanks in advance.

Request: Adult Coloring Books (Downers Grove/Darien border) Expired 1y - Seeking adult coloring books for my elderly mother. Finally got her to try coloring, & now she does it all day! Happy that she has an activity she enjoys, but she goes through a book every couple days & can't afford to keep buying them, even at the dollar store (both of us are disabled/ live on SS, & both have high cost chronic medical conditions). Would be most worth our effort if someone has multiple books instead of making trips for single books. Thanks in advance.

Family member is going somewhere that doesn't allow devices with WiFi capability (or cameras) & they'd love to be able to listen to music. Bluetooth preferred but not strictly necessary.
