I'm seeing a lot of recent posts pertaining to either freebies or awesome drum deals. So I figured I would start a thread for just that matter. I'm sure most of us at some point or another has acquired a drum from the brinks of destruction or found a kit with a take me home now price. I'll be sure and take some photos, but here are some of my better freebies & deals.
