I was watching the National tonight and they had a special on Dumpster Diving. It is completely disgusting, but offers a great alternative to buying groceries. If you have a tight budget this post may significantly help you...
Dumpster diving, is a term to describe the practice of rummaging through commercial or residential trash to find useful free items that have been discarded.
In practice, dumpstering is more like fishing around than diving in. In most cases people dumpster dive to reclaim items that have been disposed of but can still be put to further use - e.g. food
Many people dumpster-dive not out of economic necessity, but for the thrill of the hunt, or as a creative outlet.
Food can often be acquired in this manner from bakeries or grocery stores, who sometimes throw out perfectly fine food.
