FREEGANS' FINDS

TAKE A DUMP:

In simple terms, Freegans are  individuals that dumpster dive and find free things to wear, eat or augment their environment.

The New York Times found a treasure trove of ripped clothes in H&M's  dumpster.  Many questioned why those goods had to be razor-shredded instead of given to the homeless.

This story prompted some freegans to dumpster dive at the Urban Outfitters trash in Manhattan.

Treasures abound:  iPod stereo system, hamburger phones, shoes, posters, notepads, neon-colored Nikes, calendars-- the dumped boxes were labeled "Broken Glass."

An employee stated the "Broken Glass" boxes were headed for The Salvation Army, not the trash.

Hmmm, don't believe everything you read or hear!!
