If you live in NYC then chances are you will understand this phrase “one man’s trash is another man’s treasure” far better than the rest of us. New Yorkers really know all about stooping in which people leave behind things they no longer need on the sidewalk in front of their homes for others to ‘adopt’ and use for their benefits. It’s built into their culture and the ‘Stooping NYC’ Instagram account documents it perfectly in their collection. Scroll on to check out the list of favorites from this collective exchange market. We bet you will be shocked to see what people really found that was indeed a treasure for them! Enjoy peeps!
