Don't you worry about getting food poisoning from the food you find in the dumpster?

not really! its more about eating non perishables from the dumpster, or things that are unopened. Dairy products are a no no as well!

If you have a chance, you should read the faq in the rules and regulations section! they explain alot. And always, if you have any questions feel free to pm me, the Dumpster Pirate mule!

I always trade up xp

You guys find the most sweetest things.... Why don't people just give those things away to a second hand shop? If I don't want something and it's in selling condition. I give it to a non profit charity so they can make money by selling it. I would also go dumpster diving and give things to people who need it more than me.

Amen you have the right spirit!

Its because corporations and stores would rather dispose of their perfectly good items then give them away. its the whole idea that if no one is going to buy it, then ill throw it out type motive. its really disheartening and selfish.

In my town the two major grocery stores donate lots of diffrent things they can't sell to a local church. The food is perfectly fine, and it helps feed a lot of needy people. Unfortunatly they have the people who abuse it too but that's another story.
