Dumpster-Diving Woman Makes $5,000 Monthly in Real-Life Treasure Hunt.
Veronica Taylor, a Pennsylvania woman, has turned dumpster diving into a lucrative business by selling authentic designer items on the auction app WhatNot and on live-streamed auctions. She claims to make up to $5,000 a month from the sales and donates most food and hygiene products to charity. Taylor and her friend Liz Wilson travel from city to city, exploring dumpsters in "rich-people neighborhoods" and at thrift shops, finding items such as Louis Vuitton wallets and designer shoes. They sell the salvaged items on WhatNot and live-streamed auctions, where customers bid on items as they are discovered.
