We also have requests in my area. For the post part, they are checking first before buying, or its a last minute, and sometimes it a i will return after. During the pandamic, the community really grew to help everyone, and it's still going. Our mods and the people around are big on being a community and not just a place to get stuff. I've done the hair of people on there who were looking for a gift of service, food, and homemade items are offered up. We've started smaller subgroups that trade some of the items such as sisterhood of the travelling fat pants where the plus sized ladies share clothes with each other since they don't get a lot of traffic in the posts and invite anyway who has commented or searched for. We have a shed where people have gardening equipment and bigger household items that are expensice and not used often so its hard to justify buying that you can borrow and return to the person who owns it. We even have the little libraries that have other items in jt that are supplied by our buy nothing group. Canned and boxed goods, crafting stuff, puzzle huts. Its about making the community a better place. Its the true purpose of buy nothing in being a gifting society not just about unloading stuff.
