Yeah, I had heard that at most universitys at the beggining of summer you could find alot of paraphenailia in their dumpsters and other goodies, I have thought about dumpster diving. One of my freinds went dumpster diving at a best buy, found 11 ipods, he sold them all on ebay
my aunt carolyne owns a mini storage and when people dont pay after a month your allowed to go into their storages and raid it. Man ive found some kick ass stuff in there. Like cd's, furniture, all kind of stuff.
that's like...I donno. I always see the bums digging in the trash in our town...do you have a job? cause it sounds like you're trying to do something cool and all, but you might be a bit better buying the food..like clean or whatever. that's what most people do.
a lot different than digging in the garbage though...that's for sure. some people probably have cool shit in storage.Quote:

It's legal to go in a dumpster because it's owned by the state.Quote:

My apartment is about 80% full of used stuff. I currently live in a nice sized college town. I moved in when most of the students were moving out for the summer, i found some nice shit.
I plan on gaining all new furniture next semester and giving my current stuff to the good will. i wouldn't dive for food though, but thats just from idealism.:)
In the 'burbs, you could find really nice couches, and tables those rich folk want to throw away. Why buy a new couch, when you get an equally nice one for free if you look.
Climbing into a RUBBISH BIN and TAKING FOOD that, i assume, YOU WILL EAT. That's some repugnant shit dude.
I've always wanted to go diving. What's keeping me from doing it is a fear of not being able to get out of the dumpster. I know its irrational, but it still freaks me out. Last year after spring semester was over my friend found a really nice floor lamp. I think I might go with him this year and check the whole thing out.
