It's all free... just bend over and pick it up.. Your recycling 80% of all my tools I have found along the road over the years.. I have a Brand New in the box 10 ounce Guy Harvey Coffee Mug.. Not a ding or a scratch.. some one must have been P.O and slung it out the window... It has a " Beautiful Snook on it"

I could have saved a lot of money if I'd found 80% of my tools along the road. Right now I'm cleaning out all of Harbor Freights cheap Chinese tools and freebies.

Some day when it's a broken or worn out tablet? Big, handy coaster! Lemonade from lemons.

Any digital appliances that conk out can be used as hammers or for target practice or stress management! Beats letting them collect dust!

People are using them as Christmas decorations. Now you know in plenty of time for next year.

Many better pics on a Google search for "CD Christmas decoration"

What it "seems" like I collect are shoes... since I have more of those than anything else... but that's not an intentional collection, I just really need more - so many different styles and colors to choose from! And that's my story & I'm sticking to it!

..................................................Me? I am most all of those!!!

I recall a Mrs. Marcos..... I could use more shoes..

Collecting days are hopefully behind us.

It's declutter here at the moment.

I do have a small collection, maybe forty, of high quality die cast model cars, mainly 1950s and 60s sports cars- can't afford the real ones!

Hmm.. I used to collect something.. but now I can't.. Recollect what it was...
