The airline lost your bags, you forgot to pick up some item from the carousel, or maybe you just never got around to checking with the airport concierge about your unclaimed baggage. Have you ever wondered what happens to all these bags, satchels, luggage, baggage, suitcases, gear, and lose sports items? Your lost bags and unclaimed baggage are making money - for someone else!

Minyanville reports that each year about 400,000 items of luggage checked by airline passengers fail to be reunited with their owners upon commencement of the flight. That may not sound like a whole lot, considering how many millions of people fly each year, but nonetheless these items add up and must be stored somewhere, right?

Wrong! The Unclaimed Baggage Center, a company that has found a way of capitalizing on the misfortune of frustrated airline travelers, sells the content of unclaimed baggage that remains without owner for three months. The company has carved out a niche for itself on the thrift market by contracting exclusively with a large number of commercial airlines.

Thus, your lost suitcase filled with undies, personal hygiene products, your teen daughter's secret diary, clothes, recent tourist purchases, and sappy love letters is likely to be rifled through by an employee of Unclaimed Baggage in the search for something that might fetch a few bucks.

Yet all is not lost! You can also visit the Unclaimed Baggage Center in person at the Scottsboro, Alabama store or online and see if you find your stuff; unfortunately, you cannot buy anything online. However, the store maintains that some savvy bargain hunters have waited for special airfare deals just to visit Scottsboro and shop at the Unclaimed Baggage Center store, and the deals they found on designer frames, electronics and also clothing more than made up for the cost of the plane ticket.

If holiday shopping this year has to take place on a shoestring budget, and if you do not live in Scottsboro nor envision traveling there for the lost luggage and unclaimed baggage sales, then perhaps Woot is more to your liking. As previously mentioned, even though the selection is small - one item - the screaming deals you get are well worth the daily visit.

In the true spirit of recycling, do not forget that Property Room, an online police auction site I wrote about back in August, also offers some superb deals on pre-owned items. If spending money is completely out of the question, visit Swap Tree. Associated Content's own J.Corn has detailed how to trade for the books, CDs, DVDs, and video games you want -- rather than using cold, hard cash.

Black Friday just got a whole lot easier, didn't it?
