Looking through garbage for things that are in a good state and taking it in for our own personal enjoyment. I can understand picking up a piece of furniture that has a few things wrong/damaged. You can always fix it up and polish it. I know my parents have taken in a few things that they thought was in a good shape, most of the furniture they got just had a few roughed up sides, nothing big. A typical American seems to throw out furniture that have nothing wrong with them because they get something newer. It's all about what is "in" and cooler.
This is a piece of furniture my parents got.
The one thing I would not pick up from the garbage would be food. Even if it looks good, I would much rather buy my own food. I wouldn't want anything to happen to me. Furniture is okay because you're not eating it but with food you are.
