A WOMAN who decided to rummage through other people's bins has shown how she managed to find a whopping £1,600 worth of 'treasure'. Ariana explained that on rubbish day, she likes heading out into her local area to see what other people have chucked away.

And, as she lives in quite an affluent neighbourhood, her hauls are often impressive. Things started successfully, as Ariana spotted a little shelf, worth £46, and a core workout machine, which retails for around £120. She then found a whole bag full of picture frames, including some silver ones and what appeared to be a digital one.

"These are all really beautiful actually," Ariana said in a video on her TikTok page. "This is like a whole thing of treasure. I don't get why somebody would throw all this out!. "I'm just gonna take all these treasures.". She was then spotted by the person who'd put the rubbish bags out, as she told them: "I'll clean up. Don't worry.

"I found some treasures in your trash.". Ariana continued to find a sewing kit, a microphone and a load of gold trinkets. "I don't understand why someone would trash this gorgeous gold stuff!" she exclaimed. One of the best items from the haul was a metal case, which looked to be some kind of scroll case, and is worth an impressive £385.

"I'll take this," she said. "I can find a new home for it somewhere.". She went on to dig out two coffee machines, some candles, a Cuisinart machine and a tub of a fat burner supplement. "See the work we did?" she said. "These two bags were full and now they're really just trash.
