Another day, another story about a rude person discarding trash in someone else’s yard.

It never ends!

But I’ll tell ya right now that this guy got what was coming to him…

Read on to get all the details!

Kept finding bottles of peppermint Schnapps in my yard. I collected then waited.

“I bought a house on a corner when I moved to this area.

I kept the yard cut and clean.

This corner seems to be a place where trash was thrown out regularly.

Hmmm…

From the beginning I kept finding peppermint schnapps pints along one of the fence lines.

The first one I hit with a mower.

It seemed every day I would see one on my property in the same spot.

I knew it had to be a neighbor, so I quit throwing them in the recycling bin and started to collect one after another.

I hoped to eventually find whoever had this bad habit.

I filled one huge contractor bag.

Then one turned into two.

One day I was off early and trimming the hedges by the house.

Then I heard it.

A thunk followed by something hitting the fence. I finally caught the litter bug.

Gotcha!

Now I have the car and driver.

I jumped in my truck and headed the direction the guy went.

He had just got out of the car and went inside.

I drove back home and loaded the heavy bags of glass pints.

Later that evening I went to this mans house.

There was another car in the driveway.

I got out, rang the doorbell and walked back to get the bags.

An older woman answered the door as i was coming back.

She asked if she could help me. I said yes.

I told her that I’ve dealt with this problem and was tired of it.

Here you go, buddy!

The husband had now come outside.

I took one bag and dumped it on the driveway.

Bottles broke and flopped around.

I grabbed the other bag and did the same.

I told them that i was sick of picking up after him and had better not see another pint in my yard.

She immediately turned to him and started yelling.

Apparently he had a bad drinking problem and promised that he quit.

He would down the pint before he got home and my yard was his dumping zone.

I never did see another bottle of Schnapps after this.”
