It looks like a gift bag, but it has an
air tight enclosure. Store the dog
poop from the morning walk in here
along with an old banana peel.
Store
all of your car garbage in this faux
purse. Did you miss garbage day?
Wrap it up in this handy delivery
box
and put it out front for
a few days.
Someone will pick it up. We can
help you with all for your garbage
needs.

we're into rural myth territory here |

woman I know swears she knows the woman who was carrying her dead cat in a bag on the bus to give to another friend to bury with dignity in her garden when it got pinched by someone getting off the bus. |
|
|
why not leave nice things outside (like food you are not going to eat) for people who might find a use for it? |
|
|
No, you wouldn't believe the stuff
people take over the stuff they
don't take. Wanted to see if I
could get rid of my garbage in the
process. |
|
|
I try to give to people who are
hungry like at shelters and town
food pick-up. After the last time I
gave someone money for food and
he walked into a liquor store down
the block I figured being had. |
|
|
Non perishable food being left out
is a good idea too. |
|
|
I got rid of an outgrown kid's bike that way. I hope they fixed the brakes. |
|
|
Conversely, maybe jewelry, extra cash, etc. at home could be kept in a box made to look like trash. |
|
|
you can get little cash boxes that look like a tin of baked beans |
|
|
Yes, Cedar, if this stuff gets stolen
first then your stuff won't be so
sad. |

I heard of a mother who had to change the baby's very dirty diaper at some nighttime outdoor occasion, (probably fireworks). Someone stole the bag containing the diaper, much to the amusement of the mother. |
