Default Re: Who Dumpster Dives - Stories Please

I briefly lived in an apartment complex that was full of well to do college students. These kids would literally throw away brand new microwaves, computers, bookshelves, etc... to avoid toting them home for summer vacation. It seemed such a waste to me, and I did pick up a few things (dining room table and brand new books--some still in the wrapper). Mainly I felt bad for the kids' parents wasting all that money
