    Lookin good for a BIG load next week!

    A buddy of mine knows soneone who works for Georgian College (massive college 5 mins from my house) and he let us know they have a bunch of old shelving, electronics and 30 circuit board carts. The kinds to learn about how circuits work and what not. All free. Keeping our fingers crossed that we nail this job.

    Also been advertising like a feind. Got some great contacts and approached a bunch of people doing renos and they all took our numbers saying "when we have all the scrap ready you will be the first to know" i mean hey, win win. They put less weight in the drop off bins in their driveways, and we profit from free scrap.

    Also been curb shopping since monday, garage is full to the brim. Had to start storing off site. Really excited that this little side business is working out well. Looking forward to busy times ahead!

    If I didn't have bad luck, I'd have no luck at all...
