I haven't done it but a friend I visit lives in a large condo complex. Before I go up I linger in the complex vestibule where the mailman leaves piles and piles of weekly ad circulars. Picked up some great new/transferred prescription coups this way.
And no, I don't feel guilty. This is a very well heeled suburb. Not many coupon clippers, if any.
Back to the dumpster diving: a gal I once knew had a husband who worked as a city sanitation driver (garbage man, as they're known in my parts). His route was downtown Chicago. One of the stops was at a well known department store where he retrieved 50 brand new Coach bags and a $700 oriental rug that is now in their home. She tells me he routinely brings home lots of goodies.
