    obscure roadside scrap

    In an unending search for things scrap able or re usable, I've found two more things. First - light bulbs. I find an incredible amount of lamps being thrown out. Some are scrap able some are not, most still have light bulbs. This isn't life changing but, its a good way to save a buck, especially for those living on a shoestring budget.

    Secondly- luggage. I don't see any scrappers breaking off the aluminum retractable handles. I've heard of folks taking luggage or checking it out. I believe that's a longshot to find a ring or envelope full of money. It's unlikely and they are bulky and can harbor bed bugs from hotels. However I found that a few good twists on the retractable towing handles will usually break em off.

    Kindly add any other little secrets with the class. Boys and girls.
