Insanely Awesome Dumpster Diving Haul | Goodwill-Big Lots-Pet Smart-Game stop 

Sally O'hara sorry you don’t, but being a veteran myself , I like helping fellow veterans.

oh

I'd love to sell it! Help me talk Staci into it! Haha

Yes ma'am! There's a lot of hungry Critters out there. No reason for good food to be in the trash, will save as much as we can!

Four years later.... I really like your idea of making no bake oatmeal cookies with flavored oatmeal packets. Although they didn't come from the dumpster I do have some slightly outdated oatmeal I'm gonna try this with. Thanks from rural Wisconsin!

The Wicker doll thing is long gone unfortunately. I love the idea with the dresser drawers and the Caster wheels. That is a great idea especially considering the fact we have officially ran out of room lol. Be sure and keep an eye out for the new videos and click the Bell so you're notified as soon as they upload. That way if you see something you would like to have chances are I will still have it or be able to go back and get it.

I think we are doing something to stop it. Dumpster diving is more popular than it has ever been and I strongly believe that is because of RU-vid. The more and more people learn about dumpster diving, the more new dumpster divers we recruit! The more divers there are the less stuff that goes to waste!

Unfortunately, we live in a lawsuit crazy world and manufacturers and our government set these dates extra early in order to protect themselves. Plus, people leave behind any fruits or vegetables that don't look perfect or are even a touch wilted, so stores just throw those things out. when a good wash, trim of the ends and a soak in cold water would have them in peak condition! Years ago I worked for a short while at a food bank and even the people who came for free food complained if things were even close to that use by date!

It's the insurance companies that insist that products written off have to be totally un usable. Some peole obey.

Because there are people out there looking for quick easy money that will sue the pants off stores or businesses for damaged foods. Divers are the best option until law makers change the laws, if you get it for free and are told where it comes from it's covered by a Good Samaritan law. I have been at food trucks where people who claim they don't have money to buy food will bi-ch up one side and down the other, if anything is out of date, and some will complain about not having enough choices on fresh produce or bakery type foods. I have eaten canned vegetables 5 years past their expiration date because I lost track of some stuff and it was still fine. Yeah it might have lost some nutritional value but when you don't have enough to eat??? People in America are spoiled rotten over the choices we have! Try going to some third world countries where the poor are literally digging in dumps and eating whatever they find! Even if it has spoilage showing because they are that hungry!! There's no welfare in those countries to help them.

​@@curbsidejunkiesyou guys are wonderful. I love watching you guys

When you're having to work that hard, it's a good thing!

Yeah buddy! That was several months ago and we still have oatmeal LOL. Expiration date my butt hahaha

An assistant manager told me that they don't want to give expired food to any humans in case it makes them sick or something -- or even lets someone falsely claims it made them sick. I guess it's different if people just take it from the trash on their own responsibility instead of the store actually serving it to someone. That is in addition to the financial problem of "giving away for free" any products that you want to sell for money.

I don't think corporate America wants to participate to be honest. I feel as if they like the idea that they can toss whatever they want bc they still get paid for it thru write offs....its all said and ridiculous. I personally donate to several families from what I salvage so i feel like i make a difference as well as other dd who also share their wealth with others. Ik we don't save everything but I think we all try

Before we started doing this I had no idea what kind of waste we were dealing with in the US. What you see on our video is a couple of towns and one state. The stuff we find on a small scale amazes me. It's hard to imagine what the total might be for the entire country.

@@curbsidejunkies you do a great job saving so much of this from going to land fills. You have scored some awesome stuff & it's great watching your videos. Keep up the good work guys! from Jules in New Zealand 🇳🇿💕

Thanks for the compliment guys! Staci and I love your Channel!

We saved about a trash bag full of oatmeal and it has fed quite a few people now! Pretty dang cool.

Thank you! Our family appreciate that

his brother has a channel just as good check it out scrappin blind

Thank you!

If I was ordered to do it, I don't think I would be able to. Growing Up we didn't have a whole lot and we knew what it was like to go without. I can't in good faith leave the stuff behind when I come across it knowing that there is someone out there who is doing without.

Some employees will text their friends and give them a heads up alert to when good stuff is being put in the dumpsters as well.

Yes please slow down let Staci Handle it You act so scared and even miss a lot because you suddenly want to go I understand you have a vision problem but calm down

Yes! You are 100% correct! A point I bring up regularly and videos now but wish I would have mentioned in this one.

I have already made $100 off of that black bag! And before it's all said and done will pull another hundred out of it. So not too bad. Definitely explore the black bags LOL!

@@curbsidejunkies …and under the recycling; because they like to hide things….

Woohoo! Got to love the trash

It is very sad. When you think of how many hungry people there are out there. And this is not an uncommon sight. We see this all the time it's happening all over the country. It's disgraceful.

Just super busy. But not busy with anything that people would want to see on RU-vid LOL. Next video we'll be out by morning.

Yes the oatmeal is still getting eaten! Almost two months later I think LOL. We saved it in 8 it haha. Stacy and I have had the conversation about salvaging some of the food for Farmers like Stacy and I have had the conversation about salvaging some of the food for Farmers like that,. The reality is it's just too warm where we live in this stuff would go bad to the point of disgust so quickly.

Stacy tie up your hair and wear shoes and gloves when you dive!!!

Shoot, the dogs love it I was tempted to try it smells like summer sausage.

Curbside Junkies lol!

You are so right, I was thinking the same thing & at least one of the dog rolls had a rip in the side, so would have been contaminated.

I dont believe Natural Balance has to be kept cold, we used to get the little tiny ones for our dogs and we didnt have to

It's a beautiful thing!

Very nice! Not a better time of year to find one, awesome find!

What a great idea! Stacy makes jams and jellies as gifts for Christmas. They would look so good arranged in one of those baskets! Thanks for the idea!

It has no effect on our dogs. They are wonderfully healthy 😊

Oh no kidding? I didn't hear about that. Will it play the regular VHS? Any idea when that is going to come out?

Curbside Junkies yes and by Jan I hear

I better go ahead and list my VCRs on eBay before they become less valuable!

That's how it should be all around the world. You guys are doing it right

There's a lot of good he's out there in the garbage!

So glad! Welcome and enjoy! We have a full library in videos

@@curbsidejunkies I can't wait to binge watch more videos and then eventually go on a DD trip!!

Keep us posted and good luck on your first dive! Be safe! There's a lot of good stuff out there to be salvaged.

@@curbsidejunkies yes will do!!
