i worked at an Amoco station during high school. we would clean up the back room, upstairs etc...etc...
THE OWNER YELLED OUT TO US OVER & OVER: WHEN IN DOUBT THROW IT OUT!!!!!!!!!!
AND WE DID!!!!!!!!!!!
man we would toss everything out!!!!!!
it wasnt a really old station but lots of the signs, promotional stuff, etc... were cooooool & we wouldnt just toss em out, we'd punch big holes in plastic signs, it was lots of fun but i want some of that junk we threw out NOW!!!!!!!!!

not gas stuff but a cool find all the same.. drove home after a family picnic and was beat to hell. got home and walked over to the dumpster to empty the ashtray... threw open the top and low and behold it was loaded with record albums... there was easily 100 of em' in there... so i jump in and start handin' them to my kid who is stackin' them up on the floor. most were albums from the 50's and 60's. come to find out that one of the tenants had so many that the weight was bowin' the floor and management told him they gotta go. now... get this... they came from a radio station and most... if not all were never played !!!... just one buddy holly cover had a ketchup smear on it... HA..... didn't bother me at all....

kmann - U R sure it wasn't Buddy Holly's Blood? (sorry) LOL!!!
I was out doing my walk this morning and a house had two blue boys beds at the curb that were like racecars with the mattresses! They were mint! You know how much that stuff cost when new? I'm surprised they didn't recycle it to a thrift shoppe or something!! Gotta be worth something to somebody.....right?
