Request: Microphone - must function (Kitchener) - 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?

Thank you for your consideration Can Pick up. Sooner is helpful. Free: Bibs - toddler (Kitchener) - 10 with minor faded stains, another 5+ in less aesthetic condition. Minor cat hair due to "help" when sorting. "Porch" pickup Blockline/Homer Watson Porch/Mailbox Drop off may be possible if I have errands in your area. Provide address to inquire.

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: Golf clubs. Mix. poor condition (Kitchener) Expired - Probably most useful for an alternative purpose. Is there a set? Idk. Were they good quality before they were left to rust? Idk. If you'd like all or some, they can be available for "porch pickup" next day. Will take as scrap metal if no one can use.

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.

Free: World book 1964 - for crafting? (Kitchener) Expired - World book 1964 - Complete set plus 1965 "year book. (The other books same condition, are out of frame) Moderate to poor condition. Slight Mildew - mostly to cover. Cigarette smoke. Taking these apart to frame, or to use for crafting, making hide away boxes, whatever... would be quite reasonable. They're kinda interesting, but not valuable, even in good condition. I'm happy for you to sell whatever you make from this if you wish. See my other posts for more books.

Another is detached, but comes with. "Porch pickup" can be arranged for next day. Homer Watson @ Blockline. If you do the work to make this a desirable item again, you're welcome to sell it.
