I am looking for swings, slides, or other play equipment. How do I find it?

Check out www.freecycle.org
Find your city, join and post a wanted ad. Its free to join, and its great to find stuff that you need. You can even post an offer of something that you no longer want or need. It's amazing what people get rid of. Good luck!
Try your local Freecycle! If you don't know where one is, go to www.freecycle.org and locate one for you. Freecycle is a great way to reuse items that someone else may not need anymore.
Log on to craigslist.com Search you area for people who are selling these items.
KMart and WalMart have a lot of great swingsets. KMart even has a really neat one this year that has a mini trampoline attached.
Go to garage sales or place a wanted ad in the paper.
