Treasures from the Trash? I am not a trash picker but haven't we all passed something...

I am not a trash picker but haven't we all passed something that was out by the curb and be tempted?

I have found a child's size kitchen set and give it to a relative.

One Christmas a local retailer had thrown out 20 boxes of dishes because some of the dishes in respectively box were broken ( that must have be a big crash!) I just threw out the broken ones and make fresh sets of dishes to give to a local charity.

I have porch furniture that get a new coat of paint and cushions and serves me well.

My best find be in a construction trash bin. I was within the new very pricey neighborhood and saw a dishwasher! Brand New! The owners looked-for a different style and had this one pulled out and discarded. Mine had basically died on me so I was in the flea market. Such a waste that would have be if it had just gone to the dump.

I know some population ( lucky ones with trucks!) have incredible stories to detail. What are your best finds and tips for hunting?
