Another Man's Treasure - 2 treasures


This weekend I went out to take out the trash and what do you know I found a 32-inch Emprex HD-3201D TV I also found a six drawer cart near the dumpster. I guess it doesn't sell much anymore at Fry's or any other store for that matter. It retailed between $400-800 in it's hay day. This brand is known for the defect in the power supply. It appears it was manufactured in 2005. I am going to replace both the power supply and the tuner. I found out that I will have to pay only 50-60$ for a power supply on ebay. I have set this as my May 2011 Project.



Some people don't like dumpster diving, they think that it's dirty or that it's for the poor. I do not agree.I'm not against dumpster diving I absolutely solute those who can make another persons trash their treasure. I actually wasn't looking for these items or diving for them just there. I've wanted an LCD TV for awhile it's going to be fun to fix and not have to spend so much on it. .

It's kind of like when you get dumped and someone moves on... I've fallen in love with both items I've found. So these are my treasures to make mine.

SAFEWAY Private Selection - Desserts Only for me!

So I'm a buzzagent and I'm buzzing about the SAFEWAY Private Selection products... YEAH YUMMY FREE!..but hold up not as good as I would have hopped for.... I'm a chicken-a-holic... so I went with the bar-b-que pizza and the southwestern style chicken trumpets ( 7.69$) for 8. They were not good at all it was like stale chicken and not worth the price. I wouldn't necessarily purchase the pizza or trumpets again based upon the taste, price, or quantity. Honestly the desserts are worth the money! I have a sweet tooth!.. clearly! I loved the vanilla creme puffs and the chocolate lava cakes!

The so so "Truly Awesome Homestyle Chocolate Chip Cookies

So much has been going on so I haven't written in a few months. So here is the skinny. I found this awesome website http://www.bzzagent.com/. They have these campaigns where they send you items to try. I got these in the mail tonight and decided to try them straight out of the box.. YUCK!.. they were nasty cold, hard and tasted like butter cardboard. I learned quickly they are best popped in the microwave for 30 seconds with some vanilla ice cream. This makes for a warm chewy cookie.
