Sharing Economy - Helping you simplify and save

With budgets stretched tight and for those trying to simplify and save the idea of a sharing economy would be quite appealing to you.  It helps everyone to share resources for the benefit of all.  You have tools you don't use everyday, so why should I go and buy the exact same tool when I can borrow yours and help pay some of that cost? Exactly. There is 'Spare to Share' for that!  Here is a great directory of all things collaborative including 'Adopt a Garden' helping elderly keep a garden while providing a garden to those with no space or "Rent a Local Friend' where you get have a personalize tour by someone on your vacation or earn money providing the service.
The categories are for everything in your life.  You have you share, you don't you borrow.  You can offer services or ask for services for a fee of course.  That is why it is a shared economy.  Many of these collaborative sharing sites are European or US based but nothing says Prince Edward Island entrepreneurs can't start to do something similar here....we are only limited by our imagination.
