Buy Nothing Day

The mother of all free markets is here to promote a break from buying while educating the public on consumer culture and creating a sustainable economy. Divided into several sections, there’s something free for everyone. As per all free markets, be ready to look through other people’s unwanted treasures: clothes, books... the possibilities are endless. If you want to give away things instead, head to the ‘Sayang Corner’, you can donate blood or make contributions to the flood victims. Besides tangible goods, there are also free services you can use and make consultations with including medical, legal, financial and even architecture. There will be vendors hosting short workshops and demonstrations, as well as swap shops for music and books. Check their event page for full event details.
