Dumpster Diving in MAINE - fun dive in a new city :)

[@emilyriot5120]

I’m pregnant and have been kind of struggling with loneliness and feeling sad and fatigued, and watching your road trip diving videos every night before going to bed (I live in Scandinavia) has really been the highlight of my day for a while now. They’re always posted like 15-30 min before I go to bed which makes me soooo happy. Just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate you, and you two seem to be having such a lovely trip ❤

[@gailjackson8941]

I'm sorry you're down.

[@rockreader4298]

Oh, Bless your sweet heart, Emily. Alex and Kellie are The Best. She has struggled with the same issues as yourself, so they truly understand how you feel. Their travels turned into an effective therapy for her, and also a therapy for you. That's what I call paying it forward. I'll keep you in my prayers, Emily. A Nor Cali Gal.

[@liesamanneh3163]

Thanks for sharing your videos of your travels. We all are living vicariously through both of you. I like how you dive, share thrift and recycle. Have a wonderful time for all of us

[@Ms._Purple_Apple]

On a positive note, good thing your windows did go up. Sometimes it will only go so far up and gets stuck, my vehicle did that once and I was scared I wasn’t going to get it up all the way. I ended putting tape on the button to remind me not to use the window until I got it fixed.

[@erin6735]

I love watching your travelling content! You look incredibly joyful on your travels keep up the dumpster diving and landfill saves. You are a blessing to this planet. Take care and can't wait to see the nxt one.

[@ginasimmons8983]

Couldn't love you two more! Thanks for bringing positive, joyful content. You are helping many and inspiring me for sure. Keep spreading the sunshine! Safe travels!

[@pegs1659]

I'm enjoying seeing the different states. I'm traveling through you two! Thank you.☺

[@ridewithme3428]

As a lifelong Mainer, we appreciate the thoughtfulness that you left some things for the locals! I don’t live in a “city” but have gotten rid of shelving units, chairs, trailer wheels, etc by leaving them out. We love our communities and hope you enjoyed your time here!

[@homeboundmama9968]

Love watching you two sweet young guys out and about enjoying life, doing good for people in this world. God bless you two.

[@ppshale7223]

Kelly and Alex!!! Thank you so much for taking us along on your anniversary getaway!!! That was so cool ya'll saved stuff this diving has been hit or miss!!! I am so greatful to have found this channel !!! I appreciate both of you so much!!! Stay safe stay great!!!!

[@hailey2206]

Hello from Maine! So cool to watch you guys diving around the town I live in after watching you on KZbin for so long!

[@breafkast]

That’s so cool! 🙌🏼

[@donnarumans5421]

I love you guys! I was having a very bad morning and you guys always make me laugh! So thank you for brightening my day and for sharing your adventures! Safe journeys!

[@denisescull4227]

Wow, I can't believe y'all have been on the road for a month! I'm enjoying this so much, your videos are a bright spot in my day! Thank you!

[@savagecatzzz]

time flies!!🤯

[@rebeccahiggins2369]

Welcome to Maine! We also recycle water, soda and alcohol bottles. We pay in 5 cents when we buy them and when we return them we get the 5 cents back.

[@michelealdridge1186]

I have enjoyed watching your trip so much. I live in Florida but was born in St Joseph Michigan. We don't have what you would call a fall season here. I have absolutely loved seeing all of the colors of the leaves in the different States. I can almost smell the apples, and all of the rest of the fall fruits and veggies. You have for sure made my days less depressed and so much happier 💗 💓 💕 💛 💖 watching your videos. Thank you from the bottom of my ❤. Keep your Dives coming too. The two of you make me laugh. The one picture of you at the beginning of you trip with your heads together. You can most definitely see your love for you hubby Kelly and the same for your love for Kelly.

[@katkin-bn6cy]

Love ya Kelly and really enjoy seeing you and Alex having such a wonderful time on your trip. I’m having fun myself just watching y’all laugh and having silly moments. Love y’all stay safe.

[@walkbyfaithnotbysight7403]

HEY ☺️ Guys I really have been enjoying your trip vlog! Just seeing all the beautiful trees and all the colors are absolutely beautiful! I don't get out much due to illnesses. So taking us on your road trip dumpster diving and just seeing the scenes is quite rewarding! I was going to suggest you guys to get a plastic torque to put over the back of your truck to keep things dry. And just in case you find something that you want to bring back to Texas! Just stop by to say hello from Houston Texas. Safe journey safe journey home! ✌🏾🥀❤️

[@theglassmaker1122]

You guys need to get a topper for your truck. So you can fill the back up with more stuff (like that divider), keep it away from the weather. It's lockable and it can double as a sleeping area.

[@dianadean5994]

This was so cool finding those pictures. I love old photos. Especially war photos. This was wonderful you were able to save them. Thank you for sharing. And Thank you Sir for your service. 🥰

[@kristiphillips7783]

I am originally from NY and we had mandatory recycling there. You had trash bins for trash and ones for recycling. You have to use clear bags for your trash so they can see if you are throwing away recyclables. They will fine you if it becomes a weekly problem. This was residents anyway. I really can't remember if they were that strict with businesses. You also had to pay a deposit on cans, bottles and plastic bottle. You got it back when you returned them. You could take them to any grocery store and larger towns and cities often had free standing buildings to take then to. You had to feed them into a machine and get a receipt to cash in. It was kind of nice in a way as a lot of people couldn't be bothered taking them back (which I never understood as you paid more and was incentive to take them back to get your money back) but it was law (you could not throw them away) so organizations often had can and bottle drives where people left them on their porches or in driveways to be picked up and they took them back and got the money. You got 5c a can/bottle. It really does add up fast. It helped homeless and low income families also as people went out searching for them daily kind of like dumpster diving because people would toss them into street trash cans and places like that though they shouldn't have. They knew someone would get them. It would be amazing if all states could do even just that!! Can you imagine how much would not go into the land fills! Jobs created too! If a state with a city the size of NY City can do it...any of them can!

[@Lucaangelo252]

Hello Kristi how are you doing, where are you from?

[@gabbysgarden5323]

Hi ❤guys. That divider was so beautiful!!! You should of taken that I definitely would of. It could of rode in the back seat. What a AMAZING beautiful find !!! Just kind of like that Halloween 🎃 scarecrow or whatever it is. It was really nice to of put it on Facebook to let someone else get it

[@Lucaangelo252]

Hope this message meets you in good health? What a beautiful and radiant smile you got. Pardon my guts for intruding into your comment how are you doing, where are you from?

[@angelahaskell7850]

haha omg you finally made it to Maine!! I can't tell where you are exactly, oh wait you just mentioned you're around Portland! I'm pretty close to Portland. I hope you get to enjoy the city, a lot of one way streets and amazing shopping and restaurants. It's a nice artistry type city. I'm sorry the dumpster diving hasn't been going well, hopefully in a day or so you'll find some cool stuff! Red hotdogs are awesome..they're the only ones I'll eat! They have a good snappy skin to them! Sadly you guys just missed the beautiful leaves...we had a horrible storm and it blew all our leaves off the trees :( Hope you find some cool shirts! You may already know but there are several Good Will stores around and there is a mall in South Portland, right off the highway. Lots of stores in the area, and restaurants too. Can't wait for your next video!! ❤❤

[@ou6lt]

OMG, this is my hometown, I just moved across the country over the summer but recognized some landmarks and have been to Simone's several times - what a great coincidence!! I love seeing people try red hot dogs for the first time, I never even thought twice about them until learning they don't have them everywhere. 😂Thanks for sharing this, it looks like you're having an awesome time and made some good finds even with the empty dumpsters, it was so nice to see some familiar places and some good fall leaves!

[@rockreader4298]

Hey There, Alex and Kellie. I feel I can speak for everyone watching when I say, your trip is a great experience for all of us and we are grateful to you for sharing. I Love Vermont's recycling laws and hope more states use them as an example. My late husband set up a wonderful recycling plan here in California, many years ago, so I appreciate all you two do to help humanity, as well as the earth, on a daily basis. You Make a Difference!

[@theincredibles1188]

I cannot imagine the time and effort you have been putting in to posting every 2-3 days. But I just want you to know I love it so much. I wish it wouldn’t end (but I understand that you and Alex do need rest) but thank you!!

[@myshelllyons9269]

I really love your bubbly personality...you always make me smile 😃

[@ellengoodman1297]

Welcome to New England. What a great time of year to be here. Hope you are seeing some nice foliage. Will you be stopping in New Hampshire at all?? Hope you get to see some of the New England coast line. Maine is beautiful! Safe travels!!

[@lindamon5101]

Jacked up on coffe& searching for yummy snacks it is a fun run! Five gallon buckets are handy, keep the snacks. Great trip!

[@nancyimbleau1795]

I feel that they should keep the snacks helps save money on their trip

[@deborahvance4881]

They sell those kind of hot dogs in Louisiana in the South too and they have some hot ones but they got a good taste and yes they're the same color funny color red. I've been really enjoying you and Alex it's like I'm on vacation too. Thank you for letting us go on vacation with you guys.

[@belencantu7200]

Great finds! I hope your keeping all the dog stuff for your Pilgrim! It’ll still be good until you get home. Great watching all your videos! I have been binging on all your road-trip videos. Thanks

[@lissamarschall4401]

Four weeks on the road, you're now dumpster diving nomads! Moving right along!💟

[@teresalee3601]

Love watching your travels! What a great time of year with all the beautiful trees. So sad your pickup couldn't fit the cool wicker partition thing

[@susanshaw1237]

Thank you for also showing the amazing fall colors of Maine

[@grammiecopper9024]

Hi Kelly & Alex, sooo happy to see you enjoying Maine. For food donations...just Google where you are, a whole list pops up. Usually Saturday mornings there are churches that are open for the needy. I'm sure they will take your donations. I'm waay up North so idk of any places near Portland. I'm glad that the hotel will mail your *Tasmania* *Recycle* *Tee* back to you. I love that shirt! Be safe & Enjoy Maine!! 😊

[@pattyshaw6049]

Those red hotdogs are the best we eat them a lot until they got so expensive. A package of of them use to cost $16 for about 20 now they are $22. You can also get them that looking like the red ones but without the red. Hope y’all enjoy your time in Maine.❤

[@wendyharmes-rowe1310]

I live in Essex in England the Red HOT DOGS you had in this video we have here in the UK but we call them a SAVALOY and you can normally get them from your local fish and chip shop these for us are a normal thing but I suppose if you've never seen one before then you would think that they are quite strange I love watching you videos and seeing parts of the world that I wouldn't even be able to get to see any other way it's great I wish here in the UK dumpster diving was legal as I'd be out all the time doing it but unfortunately it's not any way enjoy your trip looks like your having a great time x

[@donascandizzo1523]

Love you guys always so entertaining.such a cool couple.please becareful of your surroundings you never know what can happen.cant wait until your next video.

[@gemykat8120]

Thanks for bringing us along, it's so beautiful with all the wonderful colors of leaves! So happy to see you both having a great time!

[@jennifergreene9783]

Welcome to Maine! We love seeing visitors love our state!! Aroma Joes is the best!!

[@planner.craz08]

cool venture you all taking and saving stuff...YES! That red hotdog (is yum) we have it in Hawaii (Redondo's Hawaiian Wienners). Didnt' even know that they were in other places who have them. Always enjoy your channel and contents.

[@fisherclancreations2847]

Glad to have you in my home state. Welcome to Wabanaki territory. Wabanaki are the original inhabitants of Maine. I am a tribal member here. I got a kick out of you trying our red hot dogs. lol! Next time, come a little farther north to Bangor. Stephen King's house is on West Broadway. Also, I was a homeless teenager in Portland back in the late 90s and there were churches and youth groups that would feed us every day. Maybe seek out one of those places.

[@nickygarmonsway5808]

The re hot dogs we have in New Zealand in 2 main sizes. We have little ones called Cheerios and the larger ones are Polonys. Loving your trip

[@martinbracken4903]

Love traveling with you , Alex and Slim the “scarecrow “ on this road trip and diving adventures.👍🏻 Safe travels.

[@joyceward28]

Hi Kelly and Alex love watching you guys again today. It's been so much fun ☺️ going with you guys on your trip. Stay safe out there 🙏 ❤️ you guys lots!!!!❤ Blessings your friend Joyce from California.

[@jessspoto3968]

Captains cupboard is a student food pantry at my community college it’s right next to Portland . And that Salvation Army in Portland is my favorite!

[@dianadean5994]

That was a great chip score. That’s strange they don’t have blessing boxes. I gotta say that hot dog didn’t look so good. Lolol thanks for taking us along. Enjoy your stay. Stay safe love to you both. 🥰

[@conniebaker1958]

This has been such a fun trip, love you guys. lol yeah I was shocked when I was there and my sisters husband brought red hot dogs home. It’s a thing there

[@carolthomas5187]

I've really been enjoying watching your anniversary road trip. By the way Happy Anniversary. The two of you are so cute together. You laugh together, that is the way it should be. May God continue blessing you through out your travels. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@vickyhale2478]

I think it's awesome that you guys have been on a road trip diving, however, I have found that I find more stuff at night right after the stores close, especially, Walgreens and drug stores. Happy diving!!

[@mirtagordillo3486]

Oh my god Kelly you and Alex such a cute couple love watching your videos and your vlogs while traveling looks like you guys are having so much fun I want to go camping in eather Sequoia or Yosemite both are my favorite places

[@KsMeMoTn]

I lived in Maine for 34 years, originally from Kansas,, and never really cared for their red hot dogs. They are better on a charcoal or wood fire. Now I'm in Tennessee and kind of miss them. Your trip through Maine has made me homesick and was fun seeing some of the old sights.

[@krisadams327]

I'm loving traveling with you guys! So much fun I haven't missed a one! Love you guys!

[@Blizzards0]

I find myself watching your channel more then dumpster diving mama of 2 you do more then just dumpster dive and it’s fun when you vlog as well 😊

[@mariesparkleygem]

Hi Kelly and Alex! I am so glad you are enjoying New England. It is a beautiful time of the year to see the foliage! I hope you get a chance, while you are in New England, to see the Coast like Cape Cod. I think both of you would like to see the small towns and the coast. Maybe you would be able to see the Whales in the water in Chatham, Mass?? Also, Sturbridge Village for the Colonial History is good (real popular at Thanksgiving). Salem which is popular since Halloween is coming. Newport, RI has the Mansions. In CT there is Old Saybrook where Katherine Hepburn was from and an actual Lighthouse hotel. All of New England is beautiful to see and the landscape is different than where you are from. Enjoy your journey!

[@vash7727]

Lovely scenery. Love the colours of the trees. God bless

I have not been in Maine for several years. I am enjoying your trip immensely. It has been such fun for me. My husband gets in a car, and we only stop for gas. I enjoy your road trips more than going with husband. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@janelord3061]

The red hot dogs in Maine are called "Snapper Dogs". They snap when you bite them. There is supposed to be a LFP outside the Libbytown Community Garden. It looks like y'all are having so much fun. It's good to see.

[@shelley6746]

Here in the province of New Brunswick, stores don't even have plastic bags. You bring your own reusable bags to the store that you can buy in the stores. Some stores also have paper bags that you can buy too.

[@christhompson4270]

Another great video guys. Take care, safe travels and thank you for sharing. Ps that’s what a hot dog looks like in Australia, the normal sausage’s in a bun is a sausage sizzle lol🙏👍❤️

Love your videos guys! I work in a meat processing plant and we make " Red Dogs" that's what they're officially called. And they mostly get shipped to the southern states. But apparently it's a Maine thing too.

[@lisabrown239]

[@nicolebrown7812]

Love watching your videos, glad you are having such a good time on your road trip. That's how our hotdogs are in Australia, we also have mini ones called cherrios which you heat and dip in sauce to eat 😀

Love to your travels through Maine! You can get the red hotdogs anywhere throughout Maine. I hope you get to try them again before you leave and load them up with all the toppings. Ketchup, mustard, onions, relish or anyway you like them. You can even by them in the grocery stores, you can even ask them to toast your buns, enjoy!!

[@cynthiaperry1140]

I grew up on red hot dogs. Quite a culture shock once I moved to NY. Whenever I would go to visit family in Maine I would stock up and freeze them so they would be okay for the 6 hour drive back.

[@cathyfloridagirl2867]

[@yraydahernandez7713]

[@LGAussie]

That is great that Vermont has composting laws. It’s probably because they have so much land.
