That got me laughing out loud. Good job mate!!
My only memorable find was a 12" Craftsman adjustable wrench ("Crescent" style). It was rusted and beat up pretty bad. I took it to a Sears and exchanged it for a brand new one.
I have started to pickup bungie cords that still have both ends intact.
I also pickup bicycle tubes I see on the road. Number one, it pisses me off that bicyclists liter. Also, the tubes are generally in fine shape just needing a patch.
