Yoink in the middle east

Hi all,

One of my friends uses this site in Oz, I love the concept but doesn't seem to be anything happening here so thought I'd give it a bit of promotion on here www.yoink.com it's basically a site to give away stuff you don't need but you can also find stuff you want- a kind of pay it forward ideal.

A great idea just needs people to use it.

there's an organisation similar to that in the UK called Freecycle - people can "sell" or "buy" anything - as long as it's for free!

Freecycle are in the Middle East as well. I've been to one of their 'events' in Bahrain.

Sounds a bit like the Dubai Flea Market held at Safa Park the first weekend every month. Today's was jam-packed with bargains.
