    A couple weeks ago I had 83lbs of whole boneless rib eye rejected, 20lbs of footlong hotdogs and 10lbs of grillin' franks. Now it's in my freezer!

    Back when I did light duty wreckers, one of the place's we used to deliever wrecked cars they bought from insurance from would let us get parts we needed as long as we kept it reasonable, or talked to them about it in advance. also used to have a hotel on the way there, that we rarely used, its only 9 hours round trip with load / unload time, but sometimes, your just tired, would give any of our guys a free room for the night if we needed to rest, apparently one of our drivers stopped a robbery attempt a few years back, and the owner was very greatful

    My buddy once had a pallet of TV dinners from Tyson rejected, he had them stuffed in every crevice in the truck.

    Last I heard his brother was still making his way through those Salisbury Steaks. :biggrin_25523:

    During the summer, Charlotte Pipe in Monroe, NC and their pipe yard in the city of Charlotte leave a crate with watermelons in it for us to take as we leave.
    Still waiting on one to give me a boat... yup...

    Several years back was at a plant in Indinia that make dog treats. Got about 20-30lbs of pis ears. My dog really loved me and so did the rest of the dogs in the neighborhood.

    PIS ears? Yum. . .

    I guess when you consider what male dogs like to lick, it is not surprising they would like this. . .[​IMG]
