    Hello all,

    I'm a newbie to Boards.ie and am finding it very difficult to navigate the site. Currently i'm looking for the "free stuff" for at least the last two hours to no avail. PLEASE!!!! ANYONE HELP!!!!.
    And also can anyone tell me how to send a PM and also how to read your PM@s.
    Thanks All,

    Kind Regards,

    confusion101 (aka Mark Smith).

    go to adverts.ie its run by the same people as here. You should find freebies there

    We don't have a "free stuff" forum here. The closest thing is "Bargain Alerts"

    Though as seany said, you're probably looking for the "Free Stuff" forum over at www.adverts.ie

    thank you all for your help regarding my question on how to navigate my way to the "freebies" site (or lack of one :) ).
    One final question though. If i want to reply to an add, how do i send it via private message.
    Any help would again be appreciated.

    Kind Regards,

    Adverts rules state that you're not allowed to PM the seller until a sale has been agreed first on the thread.
    Once you've made an offer on thread and it's been accepted you can then PM for address, phone number etc.
    In the free stuff section it is similar. You first offer to take the item and once the seller has accepted you then click on Private Message underneath their name.

    I'm not an adverts mod so there may be some variations to this but at least that how I think it works.

    If you go to the "Biz" drop down menu up the top, then "Consumer", then click "Bargain Alerts" there is a freebie thread in there! :D

    Took me ages to find threads when i first joined!
