Our neighbors our infamous for throwing out what seem to be perfectly good items. I've seen mirrors, fans, BBQs and even couches leaned up against the trash can, cast aside by their owners. It seems odd to me that you would throw away decent items, why not sell them or donate them? Especially when 250 of your neighbors drive, walk and live by the trash receptacle. How could you just spread it all out there for everyone to see? But today we scored a treasure! More like 10 treasures actually. We found 10 cardboard boxes (undamaged by the rain) laid out next to the bins. We were coming back home after a walk and in quiet whispers we plotted our move. We grabbed three and kept walking, hoping no one saw us pillaging the recycle pile. As we got closer to our place I began to think of how little space they would take up in our place and how lucky we were to find them, we didn't even have to buy them from someone in town- how great! While these thoughts were going through my head I quickly ran back for more. To the new neighbors who just moved in I say welcome to the complex, and thank you for your donation to our cause of moving cross country.
What a score! Good work. :)
