Poll: Do you Dumpster Dive?

Dumpster diving can be defined as going into a dumpster for goods such as clothes, food, furniture, re-sellable items... If you're quick you'll catch some suggestions as to where to get some good stuff!

That is the most detailed poll for the most inane topic.

I would be interested to hear why people thought the way that they do!

Papa John's is the shit to hit up at like 1:30am!! They just lay the pizzas in the dumpster cause they know that someone will be along to get some sooner or later. They are some cool and compassionate motherfuckers!!

Insane? Maybe. I was saying that it's an inane topic, meaning lacking sense or substance.
I'm not trying to knock your thread- I was just commenting on how detailed it is just to ask whether or not people rummage around in others dumpsters.

When my friends and I were traveling in the bus this past summer we would stop by papa johns and little Caesar's a bunch! We scored about 7 pizzas one time and mow-ed them in the parking lot in...Hopkinsville, Kentucky i believe it was...
Man Hopkinsville was good to us! ha!
I myself have furnished an apartment and a house, I regularly get produce from a Sunharvest dumpster (they toss loose leaves from leafy veggies, slightly bruised fruits, and sometimes you can even find sealed pastries!), and yep I've gotten some good clothes from some dumpsters too! Oh yeah, and we would find a bunch of tossed kids toys and would pull them out and bring them to the Ronald McDonald house drop off...what else...Oh done the re-sell thing too...no money though...unless you count the free penny that some companies send away in their advertisement letters (you can find some really cool stuff like free samples in post office dumpsters and the coolest thing is there is rarely any trash in there, just tossed junk mail and letters!)

Where you get your pizzas from is your own business, blissed.

Oh! haha, yup, missed that one! It actually can be a very great and cheap way of life. There are plenty of books and such on the techniques!

inane? have you ever dumpster dove? i do regularly, and have saved probably thousands of dollars. translation- i have experienced 100s of hours of 'extra' life than many people who chose instead to workworkwork at a job they hate. i have more time for my life goals because i have tried dumpster diving. how could that be ever called inane?
dumpster diving is a very good survival strategy to add to anyone's bank of proclivities. to the squeamish i suggest that you think about it, and then at least go look around, even just as a fun curiousity. make it an adventure. who knows what you'll find; maybe you will even be suprised at the "spoils"...haha.

I've gotten rocking chairs and tables...steroes and records...nice apartments are the best. I once had some neighbors that moved out and just tossed like half their shit in the dumpster and sat it beside the dumpster and several of us in the apartments grabbed stuff and took it back to our apartments.

I am seriously thinking about hitting them up in about 20 minutes!!! They will just be closing up and tossing the pies that didn't get sold. I have plenty of cheese right now, too!

Do it up, bro! You've probably got the Drunk Power by now, and could really damage a pizza!

Hominid is totally on track! Just give it a try at least. Just go peak...you dont have to grab but just check it out! Would you grab a $20 bill if it was sitting on top of a pile of trash in a dumpster? How about under a small pile of trash? Free Money! (so to speak...i know there is no such thing as a free anything but considering all you need to do is get a tiny tiny bit dirty to get it...)
Hell, I've found a working microwave, telephone, plenty of couches and futon beds, tables, decorations, shirts, backpack, a silly porn dvd...
Think about it!! Be creative and a little daring! They arent really that dirty anyway!

Hooty, that is excellent! Apartments are a great place to score furniture. Most of it isnt even IN the dumpster but right next to it!

free laws-
you are sure enthused about dumpster diving; that's awesome! it's so hard to believe that people do not eagerly take advantage of these abundant resources... i have explained it before to people that i look at it like picking apples on fruit trees in the forest. same with picking up cigarette butts in various places. like a free buffet of sorts if you know your rounds well.
i was wondering- let's say you're in a situation where you are in an urban setting and you have a few young (post-nipplage) children to feed; would you feed them food from the dumpster as well?
...and what if the neighbors found out, aw?! then you'd never get invited to the soccer-mom pool social!
