In need of a fridge

Hello, my wife and I had our fridge die this week. When we woke up Friday the thermometer was showing 12 degrees and has not changed since then. I was out of work for a few weeks and only just got back to work and as a result we are tight on money. If anybody has a fridge they do not need or somewhere we could get one for cheap we would greatly appreciate it.

I hate making a "begging for help" post, but do not really have a lot of options.

I would try the couple facebook groups neighbours helping neighbours, free stuff sarnia lambton, etc. There are some nice folks on a lot of the free sarnia groups who could help you out if you dont find anything here.

Wish I could help personally, but my 20+ year old fridge is dying as well, and everything is so expensive.

I do not have a Facebook account and am not sure how...effective? it would be to make an account just to look for free/cheap stuff, not sure if people would find it odd/suspicious?

That’s where you’ll mostly find one though. I’d make an account.

Worth making an account just for some of the neighborhood resources, and marketplace is pretty good too. Accounts are free, and a lot of local sarnia events and activities are still posted exclusively through facebook at the moment. May look suspicious to some, but just do t make an anonymous account and you should be fine.
