I'm actually going pick up a free push mower from my brother today, it'll need a new carb and blade sharpened but will do just fine for a new camp mower. A neighbor threw out an old leaf blower a couple weeks back and now I regret not grabbing it when I had the chance to make a camp blower out of it.

Not lawn equipment but a neighbor tossed out a Blackstone grill because they didn't clean it so the griddle had some rust. I cleaned it, seasoned it, decided I didn't really need it, and sold it for $150.

Also had a neighbor throw out a John Deere Power Wheels when the battery went bad, put a $17 adapter to accept my drill batteries on it and now it rips.

I'm not above a roadside scoop and score.

I lot of coworkers make fun of me for it. shite, idk why anybody would be above making a quick buck. I save stuff up and work on it when I have nothing else to do on a weekend. Way more productive than watching tv or something.
