Dumpster Diving Treasure--Some Things Found (Post by guest blogger Christina Nellemann)

Christina Nellemann, is back with a new post. She wrote for Save Reno Dumpster Diving on 12/8/08 about the difference between dumpster divers and identity thieves. 

-----------------

Some things I have found in Dumpsters:

*Several boxes of tile, including a box of slate tile that I have used for art and house projects.

*Packages of dry grout for said tile

*A nearly new life jacket for waterskiing

*An antique chair that I painted and sewed a cushion for

*Electrical and lighting components

*Books and magazines (including a couple dozen Playboys)

*CDs and DVDs (even a batch of pornographic DVDs...is there a pattern here?)

*Some logs from a cottonwood tree that I use for outdoor "tables"

*A firepit

*Computer components (hard drives, external drives, hubs, CD burners)

*Clothes and shoes

*Stuffed animals
