Buy Nothing groups are local online communities, primarily on Facebook, where people give away and receive items for free. Starting in 2013, these groups have spread nationwide and allow neighbors to share goods, reduce consumer spending, and extend the life of items. Members post items they want to give away, and the first respondent typically arranges a porch pick-up. While the focus is on free items, members are encouraged to give away items as well.
