Thread: Score at a thrift store

Tweet

Found a Big Scream T.V. DVD ( Cyrstal Ball) at a Goodwill Store for 99 cents....works great!!!

Take your time at a thrift store...never know what one may find!!

yes, i love awesome finds like this. right after halloween, i found about $80 worth of halloween stuff on clearence and i got it all for $10 and right before christmas, i was driving and stopped my car to find a huge skull prop laying on the side of the road! sometimes, it's like fate just throws a little spooktacular gift your way!

wow what a great find for you both ... sometimes that happenes to me too, I love it

Good for you.

Remember the days before ebay was popular and you could really get steals on stuff? Now, you go to a pawn shop or thrift shop and in many cases over half their sales are ebay. (so they are pretty aware of the value of stuff)

At least we still have the"Curbside Shop" great pricing.

yes rick!! this is something i have inherited from my mother, but she is the ultimate! she can find so much stuff on the side of the road that no one else would have ever seen!

Sending jealous vibes to Jack and Kallie^^^^^^^^ Great finds you two! I love thrift stores. Last year I found a vintage halloween card at our local ARC thrift store. I could spend hours shopping those places. I have yet to score on the old "curbside" marketplace but I'll have to keep my eyes open.

I was in a thrift store a few days ago and was eyeing a 24" tall ceramic angel. I was trying to decide if it would work in my graveyard or not. A couple were looking at it, and the woman said "Oh, what a lovely angel." Her husband remarked that it looked like it belonged in a cemetery. I just couldn't pass it up after hearing that. I went back last weekend and found a nice kids rocking chair for my skeletal little girl to sit in this year. Thrift stores can be a haunter's paradise.

Otaku, that's too funny. Bet that guy didn't even realize he helped you make up your mind. This past Halloween I decorated my kitchen into a witch's kitchen complete with potion shelf - most of the bottles I found were from the thrift store. Some people just don't know the value of the things they get rid of. Lucky for us!!

Can't wait for it to warm up so the swap meet starts up again.


I have found a couple coolers and a BIG water tank along a stretch of road near the house. This year, though. Thanks to all the high winds.

Or should I say 2 fog chillers, and soon to be one mighty big cauldron?
