45 Times People Found Such Great Things In Thrift Stores, Flea Markets, And Garage Sales, They Just Had To Share
Shopping at thrift stores is pretty exciting. You never know what you're going to find next. Regular stores usually have generic themes and you have a basic understanding of what they offer. But with thrift stores, it's like opening the old metal cookie box in your grandma's attic. From a Jesus Magic 8-Ball to a sassy "grandfather" clock/shelf, you’d pretty much have to buy these things if you found them stumbled upon. Nobody could miss such an opportunity. Scroll down, enjoy, and upvote your faves.
For more similar pics, check out our older collections of rare secondhand finds here, here, and here.

Thrift shopping probably pleases millennials the most—a group fond of supporting local businesses and/or companies with shared value systems. "Millennials are very keen to do something that helps other people," Ekstrand said. "They want that connection; they want to feel good about being environmentally conscious. They want to do the right thing."

So sweet. My friend had a 20.5 (or so) year-old cat. Vincent was well-traveled. Having moved intercontinentally a few times, he had a cat passport. Thus, no need for "rabies quarantine" in countries who are (understandably) finicky about such things. I was his human Auntie. (We were flat-mates, the day she brought him home.) Long live your lovely cat!

I Went To An Estate Sale Which I Knew Was A Distant Relative. Things Were Pretty Much Picked Over...but Then I Looked In The Back Of A Cupboard And Saw This Teacup. I Turned It Over To See Who Made It...
"To my surprise this piece of tape was on the bottom. It reads 'From Aunt Mandy on our 25th wedding anniversary Dec 1961', 'Cup given to Grandma Lange's mother on her 25th ann.'Soooo....I have a Great Aunt Mandy and my Grandma was a Lange. With a bit of research we determined that this cup was given to MY great great grandmother approx in 1868!!!"

It is transfer print and only the silver lines are painted by hand.The flowers are Myrtle and probably the Silver Bride would wear a little Myrtle-wreath and the Silver Groom a Myrtle-twig in his button-hole.Customary in Germany and Scandinavia way back.

I Found A Gift I Made For Someone In A Thrift Store
It’s a big, squishy, crocheted blanket made with bernat blanket yarn. I made it in 2017 for a dear older friend that I knew from our coordinated 3x a week outpatient hospital infusions. I visited her when she was inpatient in hospital and gave her the blanket. She was so touched! She wasn’t getting a lot of visitors and I really felt for her. She passed christmas day, 2017. I’m not mad, just a bit sad thinking about it sitting there. It was stained and looked pretty well-loved... I’d like to think it was a comfort in her last days

So I Posted The Lovely Cat Pillow On The Left When I Found It A Few Months Ago At A Goodwill In Indiana
It was wonderfully weird and I kept telling my grandma how I wish I had the money for it, how I shouldn't have left it behind. We went back a few days later and it was gone! So, my lovely, very crafty grandma made the pillow on the right for me. And somehow, I love it even more than the original

Beans 6 years ago
This is definitely from a Japanese gatchapon (capsule) toy set. Look up 'cat sushi gatchapon' they aren't really rare or anything. There is a whole series of the sushi cats, 5 in total. Japan has a lot of cat-themed capsule toys-- basically they run 'sets' of items through the capsule machines, the themes change year to year. If you go to Akihabara (like an electronic/entertainment district) you can find stores that are wall to wall gatchapon machines... they have various sets in them... I remember finding one with deep sea aquatic life (I got an octopus) and lots of name brand ones like hello kitty or other sanrio chars... and lots of anime ones. Oh and lots of various cats ones-- and other animals too. One was ducks in like samurai hats.

Thanks Bored panda for letting me know that have 175 images but I have to go back to the beginning, image number 1, pass all the 91 images I saw already. I'm bored but not that much.

In high school, I often sat next to a guy when we were placed in alphabetical order. We loved to tease each other - our puns were the stuff of legend. When I asked a friend what she wanted for Christmas and he says, "What about me??" I told him I was considering a paper clip. I was in Goodwill that weekend and lo and behold, I found this foot long brass paper clip!! 15 years later, I get a message from him - he works in an office and it's still on his desk! LOL

So I'm part of a FB group about weird thrift store finds and the majority of these photos I've seen from that group long before this post was added to...🤔

Our best finds: (medieval gothic)Spanish chained candle sconce (mid-century revival) for $4 (US dollar) worth $150. Mid-century modern peacock for $ 0.25 worth $100. Mid-century modern ceiling light fixture in the neighbor's garbage pile (free), highest offer has been $400. We have no interest in selling.
