Really Really Free Market Tomorrow

From the The Wingnut page:

November’s Really Really Free Market – an excellent alternative to holiday consumerism- will be happening tomorrow from Noon until 3pm in Monroe Park at the corner of Main and Laurel.

The weather looks great- sunny and 65- so come hang out!

Bring your excess belongings to give away- books, clothes, movies, food, appliances, music, and more! Come discover the treasures of community events and maybe a knick knack you like.

Also, letter writing at the Really Really Free Market:

Come join the Anarchist Black Cross at the monthly Really Really Free Market (on the last Saturday of every month) to write letters to prisoners who will be celebrating their birthdays the following month. We will have a table set up with instructions, addresses and descriptions, envelopes, and people to help answer any questions. rvaabc@gmail.com to get in touch!

We will be using the prisoners’ birthdays posters created monthly by the Chapel Hill Prison Books Collective, and will also have additional prisoner addresses available.
This is a monthly event that will repeat every last saturday of each month.

This flyer appeared at Fine Foods:

I looked up the website listed. Here is an excerpt:

This is the home of The Follicles of the James ‘Stache & Beard League. The FotJ’SBL (note: not Klingon for “banana” as some may claim and better known as “The League”) is the local Richmond, Virginia chapter of Beard Team USA, which promotes the appreciation of facial hair nationwide.
…
Mark your calendars! On March 3, 2012 we’ll be hosting a charity fundraiser: the 1st Ever Mid-Atlantic Beard & ‘Stache Competition. So if you haven’t already, stop shaving and start growing!
