Problem with the wording

Problem with the wording

I found people struggling with the wording of the link in the website.  I've been trying the original words from the site an tried some new ones.


I went to some supermarkets to check how people called:









There is just one board where people can post their message for something to sell or something they need.  Also these posts re called adverts.

I asked some people, and some of the word they mention:
  1. Free to collector
  2. Get rid of stuff
  3. Free give and take
  4. Free to give / Free to take
  5. For free
Some I though about
  1. My freebies to give / My freebies to take
  2. My gifts for you
  3. Wish list
  4. My listings
  5. FREE
  6. giveaway
  7. take away
  8. Get items I want / need
  9. Things I need
  10. Things I'm giving
  11. Get free stuff / give free stuff

Some websites
  1. Free to collector
  2. Give and Item
  3. eBid = Buy/Sell/Myebid
  4. Gumtree = "Post and Ad"
  5. Eco bee = Latest free items / Offered for free / Track my Ads / Create an Ads / My ads / My requests
  6. Snaffle up = Search items / wanted items / get rid of stuff / My snaffle up
  7. Preloved =  Give it away here / Currently given away for free / Place an Ad / Manage an Ad
  8. Listia = List auction / get stuff

Here it is explained the whole process

People on these forum refer as OFFER and WATED... it's a jargon that people using this site are a costume to use.
