We habitually spend a lot of time in daily routines, and we hear about cool stuff from the same sources. As such, we tend to lack awareness of things that don’t have the capability to advertise broadly. So, what’s something you expect many people don’t hear about or consider for use in their life?

    Walking around the neighborhood.

    It’s good exercise, you can meet your neighbors, and sometimes you can pick up something someone is throwing away that’s in good condition.

      100% this.

      It changed my life, literally from being barely able to walk a few steps (even getting the mail at the door, I would then had to rest for the entire day) to be walking miles almost every single day of the year. It all started by walking a few feeble steps in my neighborhood, one day after the other. And it took me less than a year to get back into, let’s say, a functional shape.

        This seems like a great way to get shot if you don’t look like the right kind of person.

        Not just more affluent areas but also places with students who don’t reside in that place normally. Living in Boston I got so much high end furniture off Japanese and Chinese students who weren’t moving that set or piece back home.
