Stuff like that can be had for free.  They're called 'shopping carts'.  They're laying around in nearly every big store parking lot.  I load one in my truck every time I go.  A couple minutes with a hacksaw and a few scraps of plywood and you've got a dandy rolling tool cart.  AND the metal grill stuff that you cut off them is good for cookin' burgers on!  (don't try it with the plastic ones!)

Have you seen the carts Target has? Yes they are plastic but they are pretty slick! Cup holders and all kinds of goodies. My son lives near a Target and a cart showed up in his yard. I volunteered to bring it back to the store and when I saw how fancy it was I wanted to take it home and give it to my wife for a garden cart. all it needed was a UPS and USB port! :banana-jumprope:

Those ones are actually full of food scraps.  A local hole in the wall gives us chicken food... all their prep scraps and left over table food...

My neighbor could eat like a king with that!  I kid you not, he actually takes food out of dumpsters.  It's not like he has no money either, he has GOBS of money!  He just spent about 30K on restoring a 68 Firebird, he/s got a fully restored '69 RS Camaro that he did a few years ago, and just bought a brandy new pickemup for about 70 Gs and paid CASH.  Why he eats out of dumpsters is beyond me.  He has some sort of mental disorder for sure.

I kid you not, most of these scraps are delightful looking.  They even keep the buckets in the freezer for us!

Yeah, lumber is pretty quiet. Those darn compressors, though, they can't keep a secret for anything.:D
