Synopsis

Join pastor’s wife, mother of four, and entrepreneur, Angel Williams, on a journey of faith, frugality, and family, as she finds treasure in the most unexpected places.

We live in a society where it’s not uncommon to buy something one week and throw it away the next. We constantly throw out serviceable and even valuable items without a second thought. But to Angel Williams that’s an opportunity.

Angel started dumpster diving out of curiosity when a woman at church mentioned it to her, but it quickly turned into a sizeable side-business to help support her growing, blended family. She learned quickly that dumpster diving is far from a last resort for those in unfortunate circumstances. It can be a fun and profitable family activity!

In Finding Your Treasure, Angel shares how dumpster diving fits into her family’s Christian mission, how she started her business, and the moral case for reusing and recycling what your neighbors throw away. With a focus on faith and community, Angel opens up about her own journey, from starting to dive to growing her own YouTube following.

Angel shares her most amazing finds, including $1,000 cash, designer handbags, and even toys and furniture for her family. She’ll take you through where you can find the best places to dive, how to pick which items to sell or donate, how to put safety first, and where you can find your own local community of fellow divers.

A dose of thrifting with a sprinkle of faith! I found this book very interesting. While I don't think I will find myself dumpster diving anytime soon I live in a very rural area), I do find the process intriguing and I am all about sustainability and reuse. I will pass this book on.......more

Goodreads review by Keri on June 21, 2021

I won this book from a Goodreads giveaway and was a little skeptical at first. Dumpster diving? The only thing I picture are the dumpsters behind fast food restaurants. However, this book really opened my eyes about the waste Americans generate. Angel Williams also gives some great tips on how to st......more
