THX Great JVC for the BB plug i do not have a pile of cd's laying around anymore but nicely re-arrange in cases and soon to be labeled :)
the hunt was good,on my way back home went diving for some goods and ended up with a bow saw lol and a bunch of cases(aprox:90) from the generous blockbuster dumpster department.

GrandpaBW- Well I would say your Probably the Lucky one !!! Most of the women I've seen from The Nordic /Skandinavian - areas of Euro- Land seem to have all Descended from the Planet Gorgeous !!! A short Lightship jump from the Don't Even think about it Galaxy !!! LOL!!! - And know the Refined Gentleman that You are I can only Assume with a Degree Of Certainity That Mrs. GranpawBW is just such as Lovely as mentioned above !! so I guess that makes you both lucky ? IN either case I'm still not sold on the Cedar branch thing !!! maybe I could get them to Beat me With Cinnamon Sticks Then I'd Smell Like a Steaming Bowl of Cinnamon ToasT crunch ? Or If I was feeling slightly exotic They Could beat me with live Binturong's and then I would smell like Popcorn !!!!! - Good luck GrandPa BW & To the family as well !!!

LOL, she is a Michigan, Upper Peninsula, Finlander, now getting old. :)

And yes, I am a lucky person. This past Thursday, we celebrated our 39th anniversary, but she was 2,000 miles from here, visiting 2 of our grandkids.

I was forced to stay at home, drink beer, and watch the NCAA Basketball Tournament. Damn the bad luck. :)

Life is good!

Made My morning Pilgrimage to the Big City ( Aka Dumpsterland ) hit three dumpsters including old faihfull !!! All I got for my efforts was 1 DVD case and a 1/4 Hieght Coke Case Tray - ( Like a Milk Crate but Only about 1/4 as deep !!!) Now If Wanted Cardboard Boxes or Shelves or Wire Racks I Would have hit the motherlode !!!Can't complain Though !! Been Doing Good on Cases And It takes me a Good while to go through a couple hundred & That's with Giveaways For the GrandKids & NEphews,Nieces , Family ect.... !!!! and I got a few ahead so I don't feel as Depressed if I don't Hit the Jack-POt Everytime !!! It's like any other endeavor ! If you won every Poker Game they would'nt Call it Gambling would they? They'd call it winning !!! OR if you Caught Fish on Every Trip They'd call it Catching !!! you get the picture !!! Anyways Good Luck and all That & Beware of Finns Bearing Cedar LOL!!!

ROFL... you do have a problem but it goes further than NOT having some cases... hehehe. :P

It's amazing what you people find. I've been on ZERO hunts in a some time now. Just don't have the equipment to do it. NOT really I just have other things weighing me down, like my wifes car acting up, job hunting, thinking of food, and chores around the house. :P

...gm

edit: weighing NOT waiting. lol.

Yeah Buddy !!!!- Must be a Dumpster Drought Going around ? But hopefully it Won't last Too Long ? Has Anyone noticed That they ( BB) Don't seem to Be chucking as many Double cases as they used to ? Either they are'nt Getting as many Dual disc movies /Tv series Ect ... or if they are they're Not getting off the cases like they did before ? Maybe it's juxt the Conondrum of the Quest ? { When you don't want or need something it's Ubiquitous !!!= (Everywhere ) But if you want or need it then you can't find it anywhere? Go figure ! } The reason I brought that up is I'm doing some Tv Show episodes and they can eat up singles quick ! Besides A Few Doubles take up less Space Than Multiple singles !! , Maybe I'll just Do a Binder/Wallet of Tv series ect... ? Anyway Atleast it looks like we're all in the same Boat ? {Or perhaps in Our case Dumpster Dive -wise Right now ? Good luck and Beware The Green Fog of Saugmon !!!!!!

BB is just not putting the second disc in. A single case is cheaper. Be on the look out for the second disc. Quantum of Solace for rentals has the out side cover as a 2 disc set but 1 disc and the two disc(same cover) real set for sale too. So they are chucking the extra disc. Those locking cases are eating up the profits. At first, when I was renting VHS tapes(not BB), they had the empty boxes; and would put the tape in as you checked out.

garmoon- Actually I think For some reason that the 2-Disc/dvd versions of some titles must be cheaper for them to purchase ? Even though I assume that they are getting them @ wholesale Prices with a Big Volume discount ! Though I understand what your saying !! Ironic Though I've found Two Quadruple Cases sort of recently !! which is a anomaly to be sure ! I've found doubles & various Colored Cases before Clear/translucent, red, orange, blue , silver, bronze/copper? and the ever popular {BOOGER Green - Ps-2/Game cases) BUt mainly the Plain Old Black Keep cases or Black Locking Cases!!! I even Found some Ps-3 cases recently I put season one of Ghost Whisperer in those ! Jennifer Love Hewitt Can Whisper in my dumpster anytime !!! Maybe we could make a Sequel To her Movie Confessions of A Sociopahtic Social Climber while she's there ? We could Call it Confession of a Anti-Social Dumpster sQuatch- Night of the GasFace !!!! lol!!!. It's a thought anyhow !!!! Oh' well That's about it for now !!! Ciao ! buddy!!!

See, the pagan entity which grants fortune in the dumpster has decided to smite your chances for a good haul. If you had shared your wealth of knowledge with the rest of us humble students of the dumpsterquest league, master Big would have been awash with glorious trinkets from the trash, but oh no, the entity has decided to shower you with nothing.
