    Sounds like the makings for a "dump off' contest.

    No real dump here, so I'd be weak on the proper criteria.

    Our collection centers here are owned by Waste-ful Management and some years ago they put cameras up and stopped the practice of dumpster diving 100%:mad:

    I still have plenty of goodies from the old days, and use what I reclaimed.:thumbs:

    My wife informed me the other day the kids have 11 bikes, not counting mine that they ride too. I think I've only paid for 4 of them. Guys at work put them by the dumpster, I leave them for a couple days usually to see if anyone else takes them.

    So true Dennis. My kids are always after me to get rid of staff that they see as useless. My position is there is no need for them to see value in anything I have. When I am gone, they can do anything they want to my stuff.

    In my best stuck up stuffed shirt voice..."oh the humility, Buffy!" :rofl: :lol:
    More fun than a case of toilet paper on a summer Saturday night in high school! :rofl: :lol:

    A humorous side note, my niece n nephew are in high school...well, actually she just graduated, but the next night the cops were knocking on their door at 1 am...their lil buddys got caught by the cop TP-ing sis n BIL's trees...had 'em by the scruff of the neck, made 'em come back to clean it all up...oh, and got a free ride to their respective homes in the "black n white limo" :rofl: :lol:

    They’re just jealous...they probably drive a $60k truck with a $1k monthly payment lol. Wear your frugalness like a badge of honor! You have your priorities straight imho!

    Amen! Can you please come and have a conversation with my wife who is convinced anything I have is garbage and should be thrown out. SMH! Then remind her the stuff I make from free "garbage" I should be paid by her. The cost of new and labor and it go into a only me account! Once she realizes the $ saved and time not spent earning money for someone else to get a measly hourly wage being taxed and bossed the whole time, then maybe she could grasp the concept of value of "junk". I will give you my address when you are on your way for the sermon;)

    Sounds good Greenstick. I have a nephew in ND that we'd like to go visit. If so, perhaps we'll get together. My wife will set her straight. lol
