Repurposed Cupboard Doors and Curb Shopping
1 Material
I think the best part about curb shopping is you never know what you will find. So much inspiration sitting there and people are just giving it away for free!
When the weather is nice I see loads of stuff sitting out. People do a bit of cleaning, decluttering and chuck out things they no longer want or need. So on Sunday night and even Monday night, the store is open for business. You know, because a lot of the cleaning is done on the weekend.
I also find garbage night good for shopping. That is another popular time for people to get rid of their stuff and a good day for me to pick up a bargain.
I just wish I had the nerve to jump out of my car and grab the goodies off the curb. I am still pretty shy and won't pick up something during the day or if their are people out and about. I have to wait til it's dark and the coast is clear.
That is unfortunate because I have missed out on some great bargains. The brave ones will jump in there and grab it before I get a chance to do it. Aw, such is life of a painfully shy person.
But then again, others miss out on great deals cause they don't have the vision to see the beauty sitting beside the bag of dirty diapers and the recycle bin full of cardboard. So in this way I am the lucky one.
