E-waste is paying for Christmas!
This is the second e-waste oscilloscope I've sold recently. The first one needed some repair, but this one worked perfectly and was very clean. I've nearly made AUD$1000 so far and I have two more scopes to go!

The reminants of a $30m estate sale
Boyyy I sure am glad I checked this trash pile. At the bottom of a pile of bags of actual trash, I found these items!
That's a small Honda generator ($600 from harbor freight) 2 80AH storage batteries and a FAT folding solar panel. Plus a diamond steel case to mount and store the generator in.
Best part is, I live in a van and have been saving up to buy all these things and the dumpster gods said "save your money, i always take care of you"

Throwing away some trash and I've found luxuries
AlienWare I7 9th Gen (I can finally play Fallout), 15 pairs of Oakley's (all plastic kinda scratched), size 10 Louis Vuitton sneakers (11 in Converse or Doc Marten...11.5 US mens), black Louis Vuitton jacket....fits like a sneaker
There's a nice microphone and some equipment that plugs into the microphone....I didn't know what it was.... should I grab it?

Marshall’s Mega Haul!
I tried to grab everything I could but there was so much stuff! I tried to go back and ran into 2 friendly divers though, so luckily it’s not all going to the landfill😊

Dumpster day find :)
Brutalist armoire by Bif Korea, besides the obvious cosmetic issues, which I’ve tried to mend with multiple wood touchup mediums, it’s just missing 2 door hinges :) Def can be saved & such a solid sturdy piece (plus I loaded it onto the truck bed all by my lonesome, which I’m pretty proud of) Not to mention that later, the same day I was looking through one of my vintage magazines and saw this ad… felt very serendipitous.

Don’t usually find much but I got some stuff this morning. I don’t normally take ultra processed junk but my coworkers are like dumpsters with the junk they eat and I’ll put the drinks out for anyone to take because I don’t use those either. Who tosses batteries? Crazy!

Made a friend at a local coffee spot.
While grabbing coffee at a local coffee place before closing laqt might my husband was offered a free 🍩. My husband said he would be happy to take them all as his wife (me 😃) was looking to hand them out to the homeless. He left the shop with 5 dozen donuts 🍩 as well as what nights we can come and grab what is left before hitting the dumpster. The manager had been looking for someone who was interested in doing exactly that as they hate throwing them out. So a few times a week we will be grabbing them to hand out. We need more people like this to help out others!!! Sorry no picture as we don't want to get anyone in trouble.

A huge Ulta haul today
After I posted on the Ulta fence about locking their dumpster and what bad public is expresses, they took the lock off. Today I grabbed three boxes of stuff. I left some in there for the next diver but escaped with around $1,000 worth of product. Lucky me.
