Dumpster diving is like treasure hunt you never know what you are going to find. Visit my shop Trading Post in Crystal Lake IL.

Someone got off their shift at that office store and went back to the dumpster and said "what happened to all the stuff I hid!?" Haha ninja Pete strikes again!

[@VintageReplay]

Yep that would have been me. Dame you Peter!

[@realfatmike]

No one else thinks that's a dick move? Some poor college student thought he finally caught a break. Peter knew someone was saving that for themselves.

[@dennisneo1608]

Hahahahaha.

[@ronnyt101]

@@realfatmikeNope. The dick move is stealing from your employer. Pete did the right thing and he genuinely thought it was thrown out if you pay attention to the video.

God, We have become so wasteful as a society. 90% of the stuff in those dumpsters was recyclable or reusable. Sad

[@kristengraham8840]

rundoetx my thoughts exactly

[@SteveFrenchWoodNStuff]

Some of the dumpsters filled with cardboard may have actually been recycling dumpsters.

[@rundoetx]

@@SteveFrenchWoodNStuff Maybe. In my area, the recycling dumpsters are painted a light blue, or have signs on them. I would hope you are right.

[@wendlathompson5822]

rundoetx you're right and this guy isn't helping. A new shade for the lamp would cost $10 to $15 and it'd be good as new and not in the landfill. He left so much it's sad.

[@michelemichele5204]

my old boyfriend's dad used to do that. he worked at Best Buy and would dump camcorders, and all kids of stuff in trash, then when they closed and everyone went home, he would swing by and get them. once we had a lot of his stuff at our apt, and got a tip that the cops were coming to check, got the stuff out like 3 hours before they came. i let them in to totally check the place cuz i didnt want them to come back. he ended up getting busted. i forgot how tho? maybe a sting?now that is going to drive me nuts trying to remmber that detail??? FYI, his son, the guy i dated, learned this from daddy dearest and he dumped crab and lobster from Red Lobster while he was a busboy. he never got caught or just didnt do it that much. forgot the details on that too except he never got into trouble. :)

I'm a dumpster diver. Sold many dumpster finds. Best find was a standing rack with 22 direct tv units plus all other components so far I've sold 15 of the units for $33 each.

[@thisisunreal1]

Not gonna lie. Probably would have grabbed the cheeseballs over the cameras.

[@savagenomore]

hell yes and the chocolate bars....lol

[@DrummerGrrrl]

Really! And that food, if unopened, was probably okay. I'd take the webcams and sell them. Munch out on cheeseballs and chocolate.

[@glenford5254]

What a shame all the pet dog foods wasted could be denoted to animal shelters

[@39gadget]

But maybe it was thrown away because it was infested with bugs? You wouldn't want to donate a problem to a shelter would you?

[@thenewcenturyhomeste]

39gadget They just have to toss after a certain date. Almost all of the time, the food is fine, especially if it will be used rather quickly, as with shelters.

[@p52893]

Good point

[@hurkamur1]

Capitalism

[@LGAussie]

39gadget All u have to do is check! I highly doubt any bugs.. Usually they break open from tossing heavy ones inside. I never saw a diver find bugs in pet food yet! I can’t watch divers who find great items and don’t think of others who can use it, very frustrating to watch that!

[@vinnieboombatzmd3508]

I would have snagged all the chocolate bars. It's good for literally years if it's stored well. Would have been good treats for your people.

[@SteveFrenchWoodNStuff]

The snacks were most likely all good and should have been grabbed. They are stores that deal in "lightly expired" stuff like that. They're usually good for quite a long time after the date. Good scores though. I wonder if the laptop bag was just one an employee was stealing.

[@LGAussie]

LossVegas Yes, very frustrating to watch him leave good chocolate. Best Buy dates are so the company can get you to throw it out and rebuy! My friends brother over buys canned goods. The Best Buy dates are over 5 years on some of them and they taste fine still. Dr. Oz said just do the taste and smell test. It’s common sense!

I would have taken that lamp to take the bulb and the cable with switch could be used to repair another lamp in the future, it's good to store some parts in the tool box that use to break

[@SteveFrenchWoodNStuff]

Same here. I grab broken lamps from dumpsters on a fairly regular basis. They're great for repair parts or use the guts to make other things into lamp that you can sell.

[@netticharles1938]

Best Buy date is not an expiration date - It's a suggested date to sell it by, but won't actually expires for awhile after. I always wondered if you buy Storage Units???

[@lestranged]

I was going to say the same thing. Plus, candy bars and cheese puffs are so processed and have preservatives so they won't go bad instantly on the sell by date. They will just maybe taste slightly stale. But it's not like fresh milk or meat that really turns BAD as in inedible.

Stuff under the dumpster was most likely an employee back to school shopping out the back door. I worked in retail for many years and they were always catching employees hiding merchandise when they take out the garbage. The enclosed compacting dumpsters eliminates this type of loss. Thanks for the videos.

[@kennethwyant9813]

You're the real deal. Dumpster diving is difficult. Many on here will deceive by making it look easier than it really is to get views. I bet many of these youtubers plant good stuff inside dumpsters so they can film themselves finding treasure.

I was surprised you were checking dumpsters. But it is definitely fun. Never no what you can find. It’s a challenge. I had a electronic repairs shop. And in 3 years I had accumulated so many electronic goods. Plus I was working from home for 10 years. And fit so many videos n tv’s for spare or repairs. I had over 20 k of parts. I wasn’t well. My brother put everything into the dump. Not thinking all the new parts wer worth a fortune. New buyer for shop wanted it completely empty. So he dumped everything. That was a waste of my life of 20 years. My daughter had cancer. So I had no choise to empty out shop. But it could all be put in a garage. Instead he scrapped it all. Soo many. Electrical goods full working. Very sad. I love ur work. I really enjoin the repairing game. God Bless You All Stay safe n take care.
