Rubbery shit to gold

[Jason1]

delivery guy dropped off a big order of drink cans last night which I some times buy from woolies when they have specials, which i buy for stock for a vending machine I have.
any way received a big bag of those stupid rubber toys they give out.
Onto ebay they went with a 99cent start and 24 hours auction, the bids were enough to buy a 1/10 gold coin.
People are idiots the shit they buy, worthless junk you can get for free.
I have another delivery from woolies tonight lol as I reached my daily limit for the number of drinks I can buy at one time, so I break the orders over two nights, as its usually a few grand worth of drinks So I get allot of these stupid things lol.
So see If I can turn this useless rubbery shit into another 1/10 gold coin.
and people wonder why we are heading to the toilet Financially when the general public spends hundreds of bucks on garbage.

 

[mmm....shiney!]

Value is subjective. First rule of economics.

Yer the cash for cans thing is a good little money scam.
I keep cans also, cash them in every month or so and that goes into my daughters school fund for when she is old enough for school, I think there will be a good chunk of savings in there by then, so books, uniforms and dental stuff hopefully covered by that savings.
I have a recycle bin in my laundromat just for empty cans. its a good little money earner that can bin. lol.

there are some great little money scams out there thats for sure lol

This reminds me of the "Cash a Can" scheme that different community clubs were running in the 70/80's. Turn up to designated carpark corner on a Saturday with glad bags full of aluminum cans, old mate weighed them using a fruit scale with hook and paid you a few bucks before he loaded them into his high side trailer.

Luckily my old man liked the odd KB or two and that generated some extra coin when I was a kiddie.

I wish I could sell "modern art".

It'd be nice to be able to sell my unmade bed for a fortune just like Tracey Emins.

The things some people will spend money on blows my mind

So one man's trash is another man's treasure?

you can solve that problem with one simple solution.
with a back hand.

sadly these days if little timmy wants his Ooshie, he chucks a tanty and mummy and daddy will pay stupid money for it.
