Using the Dallas Free Stuff Craigslist website to buy and sell things is one of the best ways to make some extra cash. The site allows you to search and buy or sell a wide range of items including furniture, appliances, cars, and other household items.
Horse manure
Adding horse manure to your garden can be a great way to boost your plantings. Not only is it low-cost, but it also adds nutrients to the soil. It also helps to improve drainage and aeration.
Fresh horse manure is high in nitrogen. It is also alkaline, which makes it very good for certain plants. However, it may not be compatible with others.
If you are planning to use fresh horse manure in your garden, it is best to allow it to break down for a month or two before spreading it. This will allow the nitrogen to slowly release from the undigested plant material.
Used furniture
Using a used furniture freebie to your advantage can be a great way to score a freebie or two and have fun doing it. For example, a quick peruse of Craigslist can churn out an impressive haul of gently used and refurbished furnishings in no time flat. And best of all, it’s all free. And no, you don’t have to haul it to your home, office job or backyard.
And the best part is, you get to pick and choose what you want! Plus, most of the free stuff is culled from your own backyard, making it a win/win/win for all involved. So, if you are looking for a new couch, table, chair or just need some extra room in the living room, there’s no reason you can’t be the king of the house!
Scams
Those in Dallas are being warned to be wary of scams on Craigslist. While Craigslist can be a great way to save money, it can also be a way for scammers to get their foot in the door.
Craigslist has become a target for scams because it’s a place where people can buy and sell items. The biggest dangers are scams that involve high value items, like cars or apartments. It’s best to deal locally and avoid buying items sight-unseen.
Craigslist scams often involve a fake check. A person will buy something through Craigslist and the scammer will send the buyer a check for more than the value of the item. The bank cashes the fake check, but when the check fails to clear, the person is held responsible.
