If you’re first getting into dumpster diving it can be a bit intimidating. I remember when I first decided to drive around in the evening and check out a few dumpsters…they were all locked up. Finding a dumpster that isn’t locked up, has the potential for some good finds, and isn’t crawling with people can …
We’ve all seen the hype articles about Disney VHS tapes. Who would have thought that your childhood tapes could sell for thousands of dollars online?

They say that pictures are worth a thousand words. If you’re talking about selling clothing online, I think that estimate is a bit low.
