A MAN has revealed that he got free tickets to Glastonbury by working as a litter picker after the festival finished.
Not only did he find cash on the floor, but he also collected jewellery he was able to keep too.

The content creator took to social media to show off his finds, leaving many totally stunned.
The man confirmed that he got paid to be a litter picker and whilst there, he was able to stay at a separate campsite to the main crowd, with hot showers and flushable toilets.
Also whilst working as a litter picker, this man was entitled to two free meals every day.
Litter pickers also get free tea and coffee “at all times” and a free car parking pass too.
To get the job, this man had to pay a deposit of £380 – the cost of a ticket to the festival.
But if you do all of your shifts, this deposit money is then refunded.
Showing off his findings, the man said: “I just spent a month litter picking Glastonbury Festival after the festival finished – these are all the best things I found on the floor.”
The litter picker, who worked in a team of 75, then confirmed: “Over 200,000 people attended, they dropped loads of expensive things, these are all the best things that I found on the floor.”
Giving his followers a close-up look at his finds, which included a large selection of random toys and jewellery, he continued: “A small hand, a spoon collection for tiny cereal bowls, 12 earrings, five rings, a Hello Kitty ring, 10 necklaces and bracelets.”
As well as this, he added: “Two really shiny bracelets, a blue troll, a hairless troll, four house keys, two dinosaurs, a squid, skeleton arm, a jaw bone, seven ducks, a couple of frogs [toys], three Croc charms, some crystals, a golden doubloon, £40 in cash.”
Not only this, but the man also got his hands on a toy lizard and a light switch, as well as an “empty vial, a wooden dice, a plectrum, two shells and finally a golden top”, which he claimed he “doesn’t know what to do with.”
The man’s TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @vee3rdeye, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 439,700 views.

Not only this, but it’s also racked up 24,900 likes and 439 comments.
