    HUGE find!!!

    Out of the blue I get a call from a contractor that has left the area after installing several coffee makers for a local chain. He told me that he had forgotten to remove the old commercial coffee makers and asked if I'd be willing to pick them up!

    Turns out I had 722 pounds of stainless steel!

    at 66 cents a pound I rustled up $512.12 in the span of 4 hours!!!

    So happy

    Pretty good hourly wage. Congratulations. You never know when something like that is going to "drop out of the sky".
    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.
