HUDSON, Mass. (WBZ NewsRadio) — The old saying of "another man's trash is another man's treasure," is the mantra of the "Dumpster Divers Massachusetts," as members dig through dumpsters for some rare (and free) finds. Diane of Marlborough is a member of a similar group, and took WBZ's Kim Tunnicliffe along for the ride for one of her dumpster diving escapades at a shopping center in Hudson. She says rummaging behind a local pet store had led to some pretty big finds. "[I found] an entire fish tank and the setup, I got 12 bags of dog and cat food, about 25 pairs of blue light glasses— and I looked them up and they were actually worth $35 a pair," Diane said.
