Ally Opp Posted April 3, 2010 Report Share Posted April 3, 2010 Is this a dump that you are finding these at? You mentioned that it took only 1/2 hour to pick up all that stuff....I'd be out there with a shovel in a heartbeat. I'd like to see a photo of the embossed beer bottles.

Scoop Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 I love the shape of the ketchup!! And, how times have changed to the warning we have on products today, from the declaration of "without drugs or poision" as a promotional campaign!!! LOL The Pluto is SO cool!!!! I can see taking the broken ones and making suncatcher's out of the bottoms!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
