Dumpster Diving at Retail & the Donation Bins! Toys, Food, and More!

Рет қаралды 58,247

Hi y'all and welcome back to to our dumpster diving channel! We were in Gainesville for my nephew's baseball game and decided to check some dumpsters while we were there. We always love diving the donation bin dumpster and found some good toys and coloring books for our garage sale. We couldn't believe the industrial service cart was in the box outside a hardware store - we definitely thought it would be empty! It will be another great item to re-home at our yard sale (hopefully it won't rain and we will do it the last weekend of April)!
As always, thank you so much for watching and I hope you have a wonderful day! Happy diving and movin' on!

Little bags of random keys can be sold to beused as wind-chime parts. Or for any other craft project

Yes, you can freeze cheese. Cream cheese will change texture, but it's still good for dips and stuff. Sliced and chunk cheese freeze well. And frozen grapes are a good snack!

@dearnapst 3 ай бұрын

you ruin the process there is in cheese and low fat cheese will start crumble, so make sure you use it in food making.

Yes you can freeze cheese, it may just change the texture after, but if youre melting it its no problem. You can also wash and freeze grapes, makes a good summer treat. If you let them sit for a min before you eat they kinda go into a slush when you eat them. Sooo good.

I found one of those wheeled cart with the drawers last Sunday. It was nothing lie yours. It was wobbly, but I tightened it with an allen wrench. One of the castor wheels had a broken half. I was still able to use it to store my art supplies.

Hi guys love the vids. Can I pls make a suggestion. I watch you guys all the time. Sometimes I don't comment. But today is different. I have been watching you closely and I worry when you take your gloves of ,that u don't sterilise Ur hands .and you pull the gloves of by the tips of the gloves. I think you should keep some sort of wipes or alcohol wash in the car. Just an observation. Don't want to offend.

We have those carts at work!! They are wonderful and hold a lot of weight! Very expensive too!! If you don’t use I would sell in marketplace. Might take a minute but the right buyer will come along. You can freeze grapes too! They are actually pretty good frozen and work great as ice cubes and then eat!! Those other things you said look good are just cake cups and not sold frozen. Use them for strawberry shortcake or whatever. They are tasty. Nice dive!!
