Mom Always Finds Out is working with NBC’s Share and Tell to bring you this blog post. All opinions are my own. This is not a sponsored post. The sponsor is responsible for prize fulfillment.

Did you know that for every pound of new goods produced, 71 pounds of waste are generated during manufacturing? NBCUniversal wants to help you and your friends go green by sharing!

What is NBC’s Share and Tell?

This Earth Week, NBCUniversal is partnering with the sharing site yerdle to help you minimize your impact on the planet by sharing your stuff. One person’s stuff is another person’s story!

Here’s how it works.

1) Join or host a Share & Tell Party (click the “Join the Party” button in the app below).
2) Post your stuff to share with friends. Discover other items that are up for grabs.
3) Tell the story of your sharing experiences on your favorite social media site. Be sure to use hashtag #ShareandTell

What is yerdle?

Yerdle is the new mission-driven California Benefit corporation that’s out to help people share with their friends rather than buying things new. On yerdle, friends post items they’re willing to give away or loan, search for items they’re looking to get, and nab the things they want. Simple.

Why Host a Share and Tell?

Protect the planet, save money, give gifts to your friends and find things you want. Hosting a Share and Tell means inviting your Facebook friends to share things you want. Parties can either be hosted in-person or online, it’s up to you

    I really like the toys and clothes swap. I do participate in a clothes swap for my children.

    Start a community freecycle day. We have one where I live, and it’s really popular!

    I like the toy swap idea! My friends & I also swap kids clothes. Our church even has a ladies clothing swap! It’s awesome & fun to share since it’s new to you! 🙂

    How Does your Garden Grow is my favorite sharing tip. I don’t have garden space where I live so I rent a plot and plan to rent a second this year to go a variety of squash to donate to local food pantries.

    My sister and I share pregnancy and baby clothing and supplies. It really helps financially and it is better for the environment than buying new with each kid.
