Bakery Closing Nets man Ton of Free Eclaires
Cedar Rabids, IA - Area resident Andrew Rutherford, 43, took advantage of the 7 p.m. closing of Napoleon's French bakery Monday, taking home what he decribed as a "ton" of free eclairs. "I swung by to get a donut just as they were closing and this guy behind the counter asked if I wanted, like, three huge bags of eclairs for nothing," Rutherford said. "So I'm like, 'hell yeah!' They were just gonna throw them out I guess. My roomates were so psyched." Though weighing far less than an actual ton, the eclair bags tipped the scales at nearly nine pounds.

That's awesome.
Almost any shop like that, that makes food and closes daily, has stuff to throw away.
Even Dunkin Donuts throws stuff away by the bag full, it's the day old stuff but it's not bad. I knew a guy that would always go by the pretzel stand at the mall when they closed. Would always get about a dozen pretzels.
