Lovin' The Homestead
College dorms at end of semester. What a great idea! I wonder if the hired strong arms will toss me out - one way to find out.PostcardPigeon said:I got addicted to college dumpster diving last year - people literally dump _brand new_ items. I found gift bags of candles, bath salts, lotions, and soaps. Stylish winter boots (the type that are really tall with little puff balls on the laces) and a box full of silver jewelry (with my size rings). An electric keyboard and stand. Bags and bags of clothes that freshman didn't want their "mummy and daddy" knowing they bought. A new lamp (several, in fact, but you have to pick and choose). Saw a leather chair at one point. Picked up one of at least 4 printer-scanners. PDAs and phones and docks for iPods.
It's insane.
I've decided I want to make some extra money that way in the future.
I don't need to dumpster dive anymore - but I love it. I snag anything useful I can find. I use it, refurbish and re-purpose it or sell it on ebay.
