Thrifting Surprise Of A Lifetime
Upstaged75 18 hours ago
From Reddit: Yesterday my partner and I spent the morning at the Antique mall in my city, and I had the most unexpected thrift find. I came across my favourite stuffed animal from when I was a baby, the exact same one in amazing condition. I still have mine, so seeing them side by side honestly felt unreal. Never thought I’d stumble across something that sentimental while thrifting.

So much rattan. Rattan that was so bad it was pawned off on beach resorts to be sold cheap and put in every single beach condo you could rent for years. Back in the nineties and early two thousands I lived at the beach and worked for a real estate agency that rented condos. Rattan, rattan, rattan, and more rattan. I saw so much rattan I developed an aversion to it.
