Dumpster Diving Tool Kit

[foreveretc]

I love this thread! the funniest part about it is its usually the person helping us DD that gets busted while we are outside the bin looking innocent!

While I commend you DDs for your dedication, I can honestly say there is NO Q I need THAT badly, or THAT many of. I get one paper, my Gma gets two different sunday papers, as do my parents - neither of them coupons - I guess I follow the one insert per family member guideline, and don't stockpile.
...but then again I also don't take the time to trade Qs, so maybe I am missing out

Not judging AT ALL - this thread is seriously hilarious, and really reminds me of what a couponing infant I really am, no matter what I save each week

Does PaperRetriever consider this illegal?

Any ideas on how to get my boyfriend to dive in with me?

I'm in San Diego and new to coupons. I don't have any coupons yet and think it would be fun to go dumpster diving. It sounds better than dumpster dining =) If anyone wants to go let me know. It sounds fun unless I get stuck inside!

I have been couponing for about 20 years now. Pretty good at it but nothing like what these people on here do. Since my son turned 18 and moved out last year I kinda gave up on couponing. But still save the coupons to see them go to wast. Been slowly getting back into it. My home town doesnt have recycle bins. What a shame. Or you would see me going through it. I do it for cans at work. Is there a place I can go to see where the closet recycle bin is located?

You can try the search on this site:

Earth911.com - Find Where and How to Recycle

Be advised that it's an old list. There are a few on there that have long since been taken out in my area. But at least it'll give you ideas on where to check. Good luck!

Thank you Gctattoo: The recycle bin has been under my nose the whole time. Didnt even know it. Its across the street behind the school. But I think its locked with a drop box. Will check it out.
