Getting furniture that’s been discarded is an awesome way to get bed bugs. I’m a frugal guy but that alone has always kept me from considering it. Same I'm cheap AF but always skipped the opportunity to get couchs that were thrown away I would rather make a pile of blankets

Found a Wii in the trash behind my building when I was taking out my own trash. Only thing that didn't work was the wi-fi. Used it to practice soft-modding before trying it out on my own system.
Never gone out specifically to look in dumpsters though.

Never dumpster dived, but I scavenge dumps all the time. I work at a campground/resort during some and it’s all rich people in the area so they throw out perfectly good shit all the time.
Like, we’re talking the sort of people who just throw out their own chairs at the end of each season, instead of hauling them home. Got a perfectly good canoe last year, metal shelving units, a 220 shop heater. All sorts of stuff
