Dumpster divers spend the night waiting for stores’ leftovers

Ever wonder what it’s like to be a Dumpster diver?

Maybe not, but you kind of are now, aren’t you?

Metropolis’ Ada Kulesza spent an evening with John and Samantha, two free spirits living in Southwest Philly who save on food by collecting stores’ leftovers.
Go with them as they stake out Trader Joe’s, waiting for employees to deposit fruits, cheese, chocolates and dozens of other items it can’t sell. The pair gives away their excess, donating much of it during the Occupy Philly peak, and practices extra caution with the meats.
