下周末 9月8/9 温尼伯秋季免费物品 Giveaway Weekend!

止爱之殇

下周末 9月8/9  温尼伯秋季免费物品 Giveaway Weekend!

 

你家里有闲置的东西愿意送人吗？ 不防在下周末 9月8号或9号把他们拿出来，贴上 "FREE" 的标签，也许有需要的人会拿走哦。

 

一年两次的Giveaway Weekend 是由温尼伯市政府组织的一年两次的集体活动，用意是呼吁环保和节约。

 

每年春季4月和秋季9月，大家一起将闲置的物品统一放在路边上，和他人分享的同时，你也可以去别人家逛逛看有没有你需要的东西哦！

 

以往不妨在街上看到如旧电视电脑，健身器材，DVD等物品放在接上免费给出。
