Vent: I almost missed a free bookshelf in Denver because I didn't check the 'curb alert' tag on the app until my neighbor mentioned it.

Now I sort by that tag first thing every morning, what's your best tip for spotting the good free stuff before it's gone?

What time do you check? I set an alarm for 5:45 AM, right before most people post their morning purge.

Honestly, that 5:45 AM alarm is smart, but you gotta go even earlier. I check right around 5 AM because night owls post late stuff and early birds are already up. The real trick is setting push alerts for that specific tag so your phone buzzes the second something pops up. Tbh, if you wait until you open the app yourself, you've already lost the best items. It's all about getting that notification and being the first to message.
