Tiffany She'ree is a 32-year-old mother of three from Dallas who recently quit her full-time job to focus on a new career: dumpster diving.

She'ree makes about $1,000 a week searching through mostly commercial dumpsters, like from the stores Victoria's Secret, Bed Bath & Beyond, Party City, and Ulta. She searches for merchandise these stores throw away because they couldn't sell them for any reason, and she sells them herself!

She'ree left her job as a canteen server in 2020 after being able to steadily earn $1,000 a week, and has even garnered over 2 million followers on TikTok, where she conducts most of her business.

Now for anyone looking to transfer career paths, be warned. Dumpster diving technically isn't illegal, but a lot of dumpsters are on private property, and it could constitute trespassing if you venture into one these businesses looking to find some goodies.
