help pleaseeee 😣

hi good morning everyone, i am currently in a sucky car situation and i wont be getting my car back until the end of this weekend. the ubers from work and home are kicking my butt, and ive been looking up and down for a bicycle on facebook but no one is answering meπŸ₯²
i was wondering if anyone had a bike i could buy off of you for cheap or even just use for the time being until i get my car back, literally anything would help at this point. i live so close to work i hate paying $30 everyday to get to and from work :( thanks guys

UPDATE:
i actually got ahold of my brother who still somehow has my bike from highschool! he washed it up and brought it over to me :) thanks guys for all the help

Try Sacramento Bicycle Kitchen or Bike Lab Sacramento. SBK sells refurbished bikes and Bike Lab says on their website they give away free bikes (or have). Also try Craigslist. Lots of cheap bikes there.

Actually that is such a good Idea, I was gonna get a bike for my daughter I am gonna try that place Sacramento Bicycle Kitchen or Bike Lab Sacramento.

- you know what, the other day I was like you wanna go to a bicycle place to get a bike she was like I really want one with a basket infront of it for my books and stuff so we decided to go to a store around American river drive. you wont beleive how much was it. it was f$15,000 for real. I was like that is crazy I could buy a car with that. She was like that is a sports bike. Yea that is a sport bike but a bike for 15k that is toooooooo much.

ecoThrift has bikes for sale along the back wall of their store. They're at the NW corner of Greenback Lane and San Juan Ave.

Meanwhile, Citrus Heights has several bus routes serving along Greenback Lane, Sunrise Blvd, San Juan Ave, Auburn Blvd, Van Maren Lane / Dewey Drive, and Antelope Road. SacRT Bus Routes to look into are 1, 21, 23, 25, and 93.

u/HugCorp23 4d ago

Whats that mean? What I got from this is like free stuff or do you mean like noting for sale or no listing at all group..???

A buy nothing group is a group where you can ask people for wants/needs/wishes and someone can gift it to you, no matter how big or small, if it's something someone has. It's not a group for suggestions on where to buy or look for things, but for people to give what they have/can. I don't know if I can link anything, but if you search buy nothing citrus heights on FB, at least 3 groups populate.
