you have to breakdown stuff to find wires. Its not like you are going down the street and find a box of romex unless it fell off a truck!

Funny story I never told.......I had about six large tubs on the truck full of mixed wire ready to be sold.........I had the tailgate down as I was not done loading what I had.......Next thing I know I wake up and my truck is gone........Turns out the wife was late and had to get the kids to school ASAP!!!!!!!!.........Granted when she came back there were only two small tubs half full of wire left........I drove the exact route she took and never even found my tubs...........I guess it was a score for someone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.........LOL

I found a 10 gallon tote of romex and bx wire in the trash one time when I was trying to get into recycling pallets. It felt like someone was gonna run out of the bushes and steal my truck though. So i just kept my hatchet on me and proceded to show force by destroying the motor out of the appliance they had out immediatly upon exiting the truck.

Yeah man eventually you might. Just gotta keep searching. I just missed another box of wires some old guy had out. Hes moving and has two weeks to get everything out. But someone else grabbed his wires just before I got there
