Celebrate the Quasi-Holidays: Give Something Away, Bike to Work
http://money.blogs.time.com/2011/05/13/celebrate-the-quasi-holidays-give-something-away-bike-to-work/

'Tis the season to bring your clutter to the curb and offer it to the masses for free. It's also the time of year to dust off your two-wheeler, pump up the tires, oil the chain, and—if it's even in the realm of possibility—pedal your bicycle to work.

May 14, 2011 has been dubbed Give Your Stuff Away Day. Fairly self-explanatory, but here's the founder's explanation anyway:

Because of all the shopping we've done, many of us now own lots of great stuff we never use anymore. And for some reason, we don't sell or give it away. Lots of valuable stuff - just wasting away.

Let's take all this stuff and over one weekend, make it available to others for free.

3. And what happens if no one wants my stuff?
Do I have to haul it all back inside?

Thanks but no thanks.
