      A week or two ago someone moved out of my building and left everything for the maintenance guy to remove.

      I happened to take my trash out today and was looking everything over.

      I happened to see a couple of ice cube trays sitting in a bucket they weren’t in the actual dumpster because there was no more room.

      I grabbed two of them and they are currently soaking in water with a whole bunch of vinegar and then I plan to soak them in hot soapy water.

        Smart idea. My neighbor lady has a friend that hauls away scrap metal. I noticed he had one of those light up wired deer. Part of it needed to be repaired and the lights were gone. He gave it to me , we added new lights and she works perfect. You never know what you can find out there.

          I used to live in a college town and you knew when to go dumpster diving in May when classes were done and the end of July when all the apt leases were up.

              Not too long ago we get a whole garage shelf system. Three different racks that were over 7 ft tall.
