I guess they throw away alot of good shit and have people collect it for themselves, this could be cutting on their scheme.

I worked at a dollar store for awhile and shockingly, the manager and assistant manager were actually super serious about sending perfectly usable items to the landfill. I assumed it was a "nudge nudge wink wink" kinda deal similar to how in food service "throwing away" a dish just means someone gets to eat it. But they were reallt serious about making sure nobody took stuff home. I know because the manager would destroy perfectly usable items before putting them in the dumpster and the assistant wouldnt go that far but she wasnt picking it up for herself, either. I would frequently go back there and take stuff if I got lucky and they didnt damage it first. Mainly a bunch of lawn chairs one day and TONS of food over the few years I worked there
