Like a lot of people, I shop as therapy.
My shopping looks a little different, but it's a very similar phenomenon.
This was yesterday:

Im at work tonight, but earlier I went shopping at Cincinnati Recycling and Reuse Hub
 
 
They offer amazing value for those of use who are dedicated to reusing.
I went looking for more tile, which I am using to line raised beds.
I picked up some tree pots and buckets as well as a tool bag and a fancy pooper scooper.
I only take things I have definite uses for because otherwise, I would take the whole place!
