Who's done it before? Lil bros wanna try to do it at gamestop. I think it's dumb as shite and what poor people do. What says the OT?

Also is it legal in Baton Rouge and livingston parish? If it has a small gate all the way around the dumpster is that illegal as well?

I do it at Harbor Freight. The tools are terrible to begin with. You'd be shocked with the crap I found.

Does shopping at a thrift store count?

It's what you do if you've hit the absolute pits, and you are desperate for food. I don't know. Maybe you will find something worth while. More likely you will find Bob's partially unfinished lunch.

My son and his friends used to do it when they were in high school. One time someone called the cops and police cars showed up in force. Threw him up against the car and frisked him. The cop says "what do we have here" thinking he had some joints in his pocket. Emptied his pockets and it was a half eaten bag of Cheetos. They let the kids go.

I don't dumpster dive but I do pick up used washers and dryers and pay a guy $20 each to clean them and paint them after I fix them. If I can't fix them I give them away to a scrapper minus any copper or good parts that can go on Ebay(It's not worth risking getting flats at the scrap yard for 20-40$). I sell about 2-3 a week with an average profit of $100 each. Then warranty them through my company (and make people pay tax, people hate paying tax but I have to pay tax on them because I sell a lot) and sell them out my shop. That's not counting the ones I buy through my appliance recycling company.
