Amir and Ruth from Dorchester, Dorset, are turning trash into treasure. This couple isn’t just recycling; they’re out here reclaiming discarded items and making a whole lifestyle out of it. Their home? Fully furnished—without spending a single penny. Their groceries? Courtesy of supermarket bins. They’ve saved a mind-blowing Rs 9.5 lakh just by diving into what others throw away.
Amir Jardan, 38, and his fiancée Ruth Moore, 27, have been at this since 2022, feeding their family of five with perfectly good bread, pasta, chocolate, and crisps that were this close to being wasted.
