Garbage Cans can be found next to buildings in Pelican Town . If you "use" one (right-click on it), you can sometimes find a valuable item.
Garbage Cans' contents are affected by daily luck.
If you interact with a garbage can near any villager other than Linus , you will repulse the villager and lose 25 friendship points with him/her. The villager must be in a 15x15 square centered at your character to be offended.
