    I always look forward to "free" weekend in HRM but found the last time there were very few people that put anything out. Does anyone live in a neighborhood that lot of people participate? It wasn't worth my gas last time. The only thing I found was a bucket of sidewalk chalk. Really hoping for a tricycle for my little one. Fingers crossed

    I'm not living in Halifax at the moment, but when I was there, I found there was lots in the South End. I think it's a great idea! Another prime time to find things being given away is at the end of May when the students have to move out of their apartments ASAP.

    I agree that most people are not participating anymore. What really turned me off the Curbside Giveaway were those neighborhoods (i.e. Portland Estates) that instead held yard sales and sold items instead of putting them out for free.
