Dumpster Diving "It's Got Money In It!"

Ойын-сауық

Howdy, y'all! My name is Mike and I absolutely love scavenging for free stuff, random treasures, lost valuables and other interesting artifacts. I mainly rock the dumpster diving scene but can be found digging through trash curbside as well as scavenging the river bottoms for lost treasures in the summer months. Join me on my epic voyages!

In a nutshell, I ‘m an avid dumpster diver, scrapper, picker, treasure hunter and underwater connoisseur. I prowl the city streets in search of dumpster loot, curbside treasures & scrap metal as well as scour the river bottoms for lost valuables during the summer months when I can scrounge up enough money for gas.

    Mike you are a dumpster-diving Tasmanian Devil and I mean that as a compliment. You really tear it up out there in the urban jungle. I cannot believe the amount of energy and the immense amount of calories you burn up digging through all of that trash. You should be proud of how hard you work and all of the good you are doing by recovering valuable metals and keeping it out of the landfill. Keep up the good work!
