RE: The Dumpster Dive Challenge! Win 10 SBD!!
Sounds like a fun and rewarding Idea. Will have to see what is around before we can take part. Hope this goes well people throw far to much good food away in our wasteful world. 😎
Any supermarket works, but even though one would think the bigger ones are better,usually they are inaccessable and crushed into a block. You be surprised to learn that the smaller supermarkets even the tiny ones are much better.. For instance ones in a village. Bakerys and butchers also 😀
How do you plan to score the findings. For example we have native fruits and vegetables that are eaten here . But might not be eaten outside Nigeria, like in UK
I thought about this, and maybe we should make it so its based on each countries adverage daily wage, and the price amount of the food was found? So like if here in norway and say the adverage wage is 150kr per hour and someone finds foods worth 1500kr -then this would be scored as 10 hours..
would this work you think? im tired and stoned hahahaahah
Trashwiki may have help in locating sone, but trust me just go look some places in the night or evening, theres trash everywhere! Even if its failed first time mission, you still get 3sbd for taking part!
Thanks for the advise my friend. We have quite a few small supermarkets and shops around our village. Will seriously go and check them out next week. Although if we see other people who appear to need it rather than just trying to save money, we might have to pass. There is a lot of poverty on our island which is a shame because there is an abundance of wealth too. But no harm in checking it out. 😎
Where are you in the world? Theres enough trash for everybody! If you go there and theres people already doing it, the id be surprised! Its not about "saving money" thats just a perk to it all 😊 on many occassions I have given the foods after finding it to people on the street and also even taken the hungry people with me to go and dumpsterdive,showing them where it is
We live in the Canaries. On the Island of Lanzarote. But yes thats a cool Idea, redistribution. I'll get back to you 😎
I bet theres hippies living there somewhere, youll proberbly meet them at the dumpsters after closing hours, but the unsaid rule is that whoever is at the dumpster shares it out between whoever is there. I been many times in random european countrys and seen people waiting for a dumpster to get filled up and I go there and help sort it out and take a share. nice place to live, where were you born?
Sounds like a great place to meet people.
We moved from Salisbury Wiltshire UK 18 years ago. My wife Jemma, was originally from the Seychelles, but lived in the UK from her early 20s. 😀
Ah cool im from the other end :) Yeh youd most likely meet the "alternative" scene at the dumpsters hahahaha
Och ay alternative is always good for us...lol. Hope to be able to report good things in the coming weeks. We are off to the UK next week.. so not sure if we have time untill we return. Let's hope this gets some good attention.
