There’s a community on Facebook called Bunz. They’re about trading things you don’t need for ones you do.
Would there be interest in a thread or a dedicated community here? I’m suggesting a thread, too, because there’s obviously some advantage to locality.

    Bunz, at least, actively encourages trades instead of sales. It attracts a different clientele. If we don’t need anything specific were usually trade for consumables.

      Interesting concept, I’m not on Facebook so I didn’t know about Bunz.

      Encouraging trading instead of selling sounds like it would probably be healthier than encouraging a buy / sell thread. People will tend to trade only for what they need.
