"Imagine if there were a store where all the items on the shelves were
free—where you could get that toaster you’ve been needing, or a desk for your
child, or a business suit, all without handing over a dime. Sounds unlikely,
right? Well, in Baltimore, MD, and several other locations across the country,
you can indeed go shopping without forking over any of your hard-earned cash.
The concept is called a “free store,” and it provides a unique way for people
to responsibly get rid of things they no longer need by putting them into the
hands of others who can use them, free of charge, in a way that also builds
community. Sound good?
Free stores are popping up all around the world. From a box on a street corner
where people can leave items they no longer want to an open-air market to an
actual brick-and-mortar store, free stores can take many forms."
