- Hey y’all and welcome back! We are glad we got to go out and do some dumpster diving before the storms start this weekend. We found a great assortment of items today with our favorites being the large pink animal cage and of course the life-sized crochet blanket!! That is just too cool. Dumpster diving is so fun because you truly never know what you will find!
We hope you all have a wonderful weekend and we’ll see you next time! Thank you for watching :)
As always, thank you so much for watching and I hope you have a wonderful day! Happy diving and movin' on!

Hey y'all! We couldn’t believe the surprise of unfolding that crochet blanket and discovering it was so much more than we imagined! What a wonderful reminder of the fun that dumpster diving is - you just truly never know what you will find! Happy Friday, happy diving, and we’re movin’ on!
I have seen those blankets at the thrift stores.. and I have meet women who makes them.. my oldest aunt too.
The women of the old west is from late 80’s-90’s I believe Time Life put them out.
The deer are supposed to come apart for storing just so you know next time
i love youre videos i was wondering why you have no kids?
That blanket is a fantastic crocheted piece. The x’s foe eyes, though. Doesn’t that mean something I’d dead? Love you guys, thanks for diving!
Someone crocheted blanket with all kinds of love I'm so glad you're keeping her
I'm a crocheter, I would've retrieved that Afghan as well,washed it and placed on my rocking chair
Go back and grab that metal headboard for a pretty yard trellis!!!
Thank you so much for the microphones. It's the first time I didn't have to turn on the closed captions to see what you were saying most of the time.
Wonderful!! 🎉 we’re excited to have them and are glad it’s better for you!
The lack of doppler effect in the new audio set up is more striking than I thought it would be. None of your voices ever move away from "us" the camera.
It’s nice to hear Alex better!
IKR? Some of the things Alex says is hilarious!!☺️
The microphones are awesome!!! Now we can hear Alex and your conversations crystal clear 😊
People love the old metal bed heads for their gardens, and pay lots for them ❤
I can't get over what you all find simply amazing. 😻😼🐈🌻🌸🌷🌹
That blanket person is so creative! I love it!
Those ferret cages are EXPENSIVE.
My daughter had a ferret cage that looked just like that pink one. RIP Charlie and Lyra💙 I love the blanket person! She is beautiful. Someone worked hard on that. You guys got some great things.
Awww RIP sweet ferrets ❤.
Metal beds make excellent garden gates or trellises.
The blanket is truly a treasure. I love it! ❤️
Thank you for sharing your diving. My heart skipped a beat when I saw some things like the christmas ornaments that belonged to someones Momma...
Thanks for showing "Bones" too. He's a sweetheart. ❤
Love the blanket person. You just never know what is out there for you to find.❤
I bet the My Pad was one of those that insurance companies provided to patients receiving home health . The care givers used them to clock in and out and get their schedules and notifications. Now care givers just use their phones. They told us patients to keep the boxes when they gave them to us, but they've never told us what to do with them now. After several fruitless inquiries, I've concluded that it costs more to take them back than they're worth. I was told by one insurance person "Just toss it". ✌
You're right! I'm a caregiver and we clock in & out using the clients home phone or our phones. Been doing it for 10 years now!
@@thecatsmeowfromny Thank you for your service. A good care giver is an unsung hero IMO.
With the broken tote you just keep it in the back of your truck for your finds
I like the mics. You both are so clear.
32:30 Beautiful blanket lady and beautiful Bones kitty!! Two great things in this video. The new mics make it seem like we're closer to what you two are doing.👍 Always enjoyable. Love you guys. God bless.🥰✝️❤️
Happy Friday ❤ and Hello Kelly. Alex. Bones ❤ and We love your video and Microphone. ❤ and Awesome score. Have a Amazing Weekend. Move on.
Love the the Blanket Lady and that book is awesome. The cage was nice to find. Y’all did good. 🥰
I'm so glad you have a partner to go along with you now! I love any free curb and dumpster "shopping"! Thank you to people that put free curb alerts on Facebook marketplace! Recycling at it finest. Good luck in the yuck.
The pink flower holder is vintage. It's ca;;ed a nursery planter. It was often a gift for new moms. The maide in Japan plate probably is too
I'm so glad your back! I'm home bound but I would have loved to have done this. Thank you for this makes my day
The lady blanket is unique. Nice job getting the stuff from the dumpsters.
Oh man, I realized I hadn't seen your videos in a while, I went searching but couldn't remember the exact channel. YT unsubscribed me! I searched dumpster diving and found you guys 😁 resubscribed ❤ I love watching your finds, Can't wait till school let's out again!
Suggestion on the Easter eggs. Use some 6 dry beans inside of them. And roll them for your kitty.. he will love it.. suggestion the sun will dry the bath mats if you place them on the floor..
Bones is a highlight of the video ❤❤❤ 🐈
The Blankie is so awesome great find you guys Rock.😊
Very cool finds that you and Alex had found. Hope you all have a great bless weekend 😊 I enjoy watching your videos you both do such a wonderful job . God bless you both and Bones
The blanket was so much fun
Love blanket
See what bones thinks of the cage. It could be his garden gazebo! LOL
The cage can be good for the kitty too. Or for birds. They're at least $500... Is best to take the bags of goodies home and check out later some of the makeup might be fully sealed.. and nail polish too.
I owned that same book when I was younger donated it to my public library .you will find it interesting 😀
If you are really into that "leather bound" book,and if you feel it's worth it, as long as it's still damp, you can flatten the pages back out by putting wax paper in between each page and then wrap the book itself with a good amount of the same wax paper and put some kind of heavy weight on top of it and leave it till its dry.
It’s not worth it and it is not leather bound. They are pretty common Time Life books. That one is from the Old West series.
The thing with missing bulb is a Scentsy wax melter
I like the western book in leather trim. Those old squeakers toys can be valuable. Have a great weekend.
That blanket is so cute..always enjoy your posts❤ Bones is so adorable
Love the mics.
CORELLE DISHES I LOVE THEM SO LIGHTWEIGHT I HAVE THEM
I loved this video..the crocheted blanket is amazing..that took some time and creativity..awesome..love you both..love bones❤❤
That is extremely beautiful, I used to crochet but since I broke my finber I appreciate every piece of crochet done by humble hands, good find
THE BLACK IRON BED HEAD AND SOOT BOARD WAS WORTH A LOT OF MONEY, MY GREAT GRANDMA HAD BEDS LIKE THAT ..THEY ARE VERY HARD TO FIND.
That was a new, reproduction one. Probably really low quality.
Hey Bones❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ you kids be safe and great finds😊
Give bones a hug for me.🤗
Wow you really found a lots of good stuff and happy watching again from Baguio city Philippines
I’m so glad you got mics. You have conversations and laugh and I could never hear what was said. Plus when you set up your tripod I couldn’t hear what you were finding. 👍
Love that knit lady. With the wax warmer you could even use a heat safety plate to warm wax, or even turn it into a planter?
I just love your videos 😀
That would be a great ferret cage!! I had mine for 7 years! I loved him so much. He was only caged when I wasn’t home. He slept at my feet under the sheets every night. He napped in a bottom dresser drawer I set up. He was corner paper trained in my kitchen or just went into his cage to go. Great dive you two!! Fun as always!!
I love a good afghan ❤❤❤😊
Sometimes I see small kittens in those cages like the pink one at the shelter, but I believe they are for ferrets and sugar gliders and other small animals.
Hello Everyone! One of the not so nice things of DD is the stinky stuff, but well worth the chance of finding treasure. 🎁 You should have taken that "diaper" thingy bag ... sometimes people put their valuables in there, like jewelry or coins.
Oh my gosh so so love that blanket person. The work that went into that wow!! To be thrown out is so saaaaad. Thank heavens you saved her. Hi Bones luv you. hugs
I don't know what animal the cage is for but I can confirm it's not for birds
The large, multi-level pet cages like that work great for chinchillas and ferrets!!!
I found a Christmas tree bag and took it and absolutely love it
I find canvases in dumpsters and make collages. People go to art classes and just toss stuff. I make paper flowers, beads, boxes, and holiday decorations, too.
Tina, Al's wife
Always so good to see you both your joy is ours to,good finds😊
That is a nice blanket
Awesome knitted lady. Definitely a keeper
That Western book looks like a Time-Life collection they had in the 1980's
That book is part of a whole set from Time Life, not really old.
Not leather bound either…plastic bound is more like it.
Love the cage
Those leather bound women of the old West sold quite expensive when the came out multiple
That is the cutest blanket I’ve ever seen! Reminds me of raggedy Ann. Nice cage, I believe it’s for parakeets to breed them. Someone probably used it for a bird of some sort. Great work have a fantastic weekend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💜
The fisher price item and giraffe may be worth a decent amount on eBay.
Love the blanket person,it needs washing,on delicates. Nice old ornaments. Good Job!!👍💞🌴🦜🌺🐞🤗🌸
Good morning Fr. Philippines 🐕🐈⬛🐈
❤❤❤❤Awesome dive! I love your videos, you're so fun! Thanks for saving cool items from the landfill!
Great finding 😊
I love the crocheted smiling girl. U should have kept the wet book open. Dries without mold that way.
Have a nice weekend. 😊 ❤
When you pulled the shark out and said it's a baby shark…..that song popped into my head. 😂 Thanks for showing us all your neat finds! That blanket was a real surprise!! What a cool discovery!! Hi Bones!!!
Hi Kelly Alex and Bones y'all got some great stuff today!!take care and stay safe Blessings your friend Joyce from California HUGS ❤️ 🫂 🤗 💖
Super score
Great Garage Sale finds😊
Love watching you guys…..
Granny square patches ❤ shaped as a person 😊
I'm wondering if anybody from the apartments ever watches your videos and says hey that's my trash bag! 🤣
Me too!😂😂
Fun finds today
Y’all are all fancy now with those microphones!😊
Hi Bones ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Fun day.
Awesome Score ✌️ From Scotland
That baby shark toy was trown out probably because it’s recalled but stores still sell it
What up guys you all are cool
That blanket person is hilarious. You worked hard for all that stuff. Love the wok.
The microphones worked great.Bones will love The crocheted lady.
Love the knitted lady
The thing missing the light bulb is a wax melter. A saucer does sit on top, the light bulb warms the saucer and melts scented wax cubes.
A Scentsy pot
The blanket person ❤
Christmas items always sell on eBay. The deer lights sell huge! U should have grabbed them, even if the lights don’t work. Ppl add new lights anyway.
I love crochet Cate ❤❤❤
I freakin love the pink ceramic flower holder. That afghan is pretty fun and crazy.
I love watching you two dive together I checked out the bins in New Zealand today I found a paperweight with a jellyfish inside it behind the bins I left the bags of clothes for others who might need it
I've been crocheting for 49 years, I've never seen anything like crocheted grandma there. I love her and she's giving me ideas to do myself as a crocheted afghan. 😅 I wonder what happened to crocheted grandpa?
I found a wooden treehouse in 1:12 scale today. I have been cleaning it up and making some repairs on it today to prepare it for resale. It is over three feet tall and has lots of pieces including wood furniture. I also picked up clay flower pots that I gave to my next door neighbors.
