      Yeah, and this is going to be a great hidden treasure in a post-nuclear wasteland world. Imagine doing a quest to find this treasure, and once you find it, you get nice pre-war clothes and a physics book that will give you +1 attribute to your science skill for reading it.

    Reminds me of when I made weekly trips to Denver for work. This was when recreational weed first came out. First day there I bought a glass pipe and a plastic container.

    When I flew back home on Thursday I would bury the bowl in the plastic container behind the hotel I stayed at. On Mondays after I flew back to Denver I would dig up the bowl. Beats buying a new one every week or trying to fly with it.

    After many weeks of this routine I didn’t find out until Thursday afternoon that this was my last trip and I wouldn’t be returning.

    Some where out in Colorado Springs there is a weed bowl buried in the dirt. I wonder if anyone ever stumbled across it.

      You could return to find out what happened to your weed.

    I’d paint over it, just in case someone thinks it might have explosives in it and panics.

      I had something similar from a flea market surplus shop when I was in HS and kept it in the bed of my Tacoma to hold tools. It was cool as hell with its desert camo paint and dings and stuff. Well, after 9/11 I became popular with the cops cause I’d get pulled over, and told to stand by the hood of my car with both hands on it, while they checked it.

      After about the 5th time, I sold it and bought a bed box.

    In an alternate reality:

    Janitor at university. Found locked military case in river. Coworker says FIM-92 Stinger missile. Heavy. Maybe water, maybe live missile. Call police. Military and EOD arrive. Entire campus locked down. Half of workers taken for questioning. EOD open it – full of some idiot’s clothes and books.

    New grudge unlocked.

    Actually privately own storage room still cost about 100 € for summer storage today and that’s with inflation.

      International students often use it because it’s not feasible to take their stuff home over the summer. I also used Summer storage, because I was estranged from my family, so didn’t have a “home” to go back to and would have to spend the Summer in sublets or couch-surfing (the only accommodation that would accept me as a tenant were student properties, which is why I typically had to be out over the Summer).

        or the opposite - kids who can’t transfer all of their things at once for a reasonable amount of money

        when i studied at a UK uni i couldn’t really afford shipping all my pots, pans, sheets, and books back and forth from Poland every year

        I ain’t dragging 2 carloads of pots, pans, desks, and clothes back home for 3 months when I know I’ll be living in probably the same dorm again very soon. A waste of gas, time, and money.

        When I was in college I just stayed in the same dorm and worked. If I had to remove shit I’d have done similar to OP, minus the cool case

        It can cost more to bring stuff home and back tbh depending on your method of travel, you can’t leave your stuff at university, and a lot of people live in on-campus housing which shuts down all summer.

        It can be way cheaper to find cheap storage facilities (or a local friend and pay them). It’s not just for lazy rich kids.
