Always have my eye open, but I live in a small town and have a somewhat visible job so I keep it low-profile(ish). I'm not really embarrassed. In fact, on some level, I feel like the more of us who proudly recycle and upcycle, the more it will help remove the stigma because I'm with you - - keep it out of the landfills. 'course then there are more junkers competing for the good stuff. You're my new hero and I'm your new follower.Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12343303791801390272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4449321536339435803.post-80168836073005785862011-02-06T12:13:39.760-08:002011-02-06T12:13:39.760-08:00My husband and I used to be "junkers", b...My husband and I used to be "junkers", before children, and when we lived in a city suburb. I do prefer the word "junker", now if we happen to see a clean up going on, we will swing through and see what is to be had :) You have made quite the haul, over the years.

My husband and I used to walk the alley's on Sunday nights to see what we could find. I'm sitting here thinking of all the good stuff I've picked up over the years.

I don't know if anyplace still does that or not, but if they don't they should!The Vintage Farmhousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13201067932252143566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4449321536339435803.post-32597225404129939892011-02-03T12:57:25.825-08:002011-02-03T12:57:25.825-08:00I only "thought" I wanted to live next d...I only "thought" I wanted to live next door before!!!!!

People get bored here and buy new and just toss the old to the curb. It's great!

Nobody around here throws out good stuff like that, although there is occasionally the "free" signed stuff at the curb.<br /><br />Lucky you and thanks for the tips.<br />~ChrisChris at Red Gate Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12339700094067226000noreply@blogger.com
