#1 I Was Driving In The Neighborhood And Found This Floor Rug Rolled Up At The End Of Someone’s Sidewalk. As I Was Looking Over It, The Owner Of The House Came Out And Asked If I Wanted It. He Told Me It Was A Tapestry Rug That He Hung In His Wall. It Had Never Been Used As A Rug. I Asked Why He Was Getting Rid Of It And He Said He Was Changing His Decor. I Told Him I Couldn’t Lift It In My Car. It Was Super Heavy. He Helped Me Put It In My Car. He Told Me It Was Free, Merry Christmas! I Almost Fainted. I Had Wanted One For So Long, But It Was So Expensive To Buy. I Paid 0 For It! Win!!!

#7 I'm Pretty Excited The Lamp On The Left Was On The Marketplace In Bullhead City, Az For $25 And I Said I Want It I'll Come Get It. She Said Yeah I Was In My Grandma's Stuff We Have One More And I Said Are You Selling It She Said Sure And She Brought It Out 25 Bucks... They Were Very Very Dirty. But I Think It's An Excellent Score

#9 Found This Vintage Dress That Was Too Good To Pass Up. Vintage From The 70’s And The Thrift Store Had Everything Half Off   
   

#10 Trigger Warning: Loss Of Pet About A Month Ago My Baby Passed Away. Peanut Was More Than Just My Cat- He Was My Emotional Support, My Confidant- My World. Last Night Was A Particularly Rough Night. I Fell Asleep Missing Him So Much And His Sleepy Self. I Decided To Take The Day Off Work And Go Thrifting. I Walked Into A Goodwill And Immediately Found This. It's Nearly Identical To Peanut

#15 Bought This Stock Pot At A Thrift Store 2 Days Ago, And I'm Not Joking When I Say I Keep Opening The Cabinet Just To Look At It! Me And My Sister Made Up A Fun Little Story About It, We Imagine We Run An Animal Rescue, And I Live In The Yellow House, She Lives In The Red House, And The Blue House Is A Barn For Our Animals. Really Is The Best $10 I Ever Spent 💛

#19 Found At A Local Flea Market   
   

#20 I Was Visiting My Friend In Paignton Devon And Found This In A Charity Shop. The Price Was 10p. He Really Cost Me 9p If You Consider The Penny Inside. The Date Of The Penny Is The Year I Was Born. He Was Meant To Be Mine. My Lucky Pig 🐷 🍀 Thank You All So Much For Your Kind Words But I Must Add This Bit! Someone Asked If I Happened To Be Born Under The Chinese Zodiac- Year Of The Pig? You’ve Guessed It…1971 My Year Of Birth Was Indeed A Year Of The Pig! The Coin Inside Is Also Dated 1971. My Mind Is Officially Blown 😁   
   

#21 My Great, Great, Grandmothers Table From Mexico. My Great Grandmother Brought It To Tx When She Came To The Us And She Gave It To My Grandmother When She And My Abuelo Bought Their First House. My Grandma Passed It On To My Mom When She Bought Her First House. I've Lived All Over The Us And The Table Was Too Delicate To Ship But I Knew Some Say I'd Get That Table. I Bought My First House (20 Years After My Travels) Last Year When I Moved Back Home And This Was One Of The First Items I Moved Into The House. My Mom And I Cried As We Brought It In And Set It Up. My Family Had So Little When They Came To The Us But This Table Was Always There. To Drink Cafe Con Pan And Talk Chisme (Gossip), To Cry, To Discuss Difficult Decisions And To Celebrate Anything And Everyone. Oh The Stories This Table Could Tell. Makes Me So Proud To Be A Part Of This Long Line Of Strong Resilient Amazing Women. 🥰   
   

#22 Found This Wonderful Room Divider At An Antique Shop, Still Had The Little Pots And It Still Lights Up. I Love It!   
   

#23 Got This Beauty At A Yard Sale For .50 !!   
   

#24 After Work, I Went Into A Goodwill I Don't Normally Stop In. I Think I Went Because This Toymaker Was Calling Out To Me. I Picked Him Up And Looked Him Over In Awe. He Was Wrapped In Tape, Which I Was Confused By. I Mean, Obviously, I Was Going To Get Him Either Way Because Just Look At Him, But What Was His Purpose? Finally, On The Bottom, I Found A Handwritten Sticker That Explained He Is An Incense Burner. You Lift Him Up Off His Bench And Place A Cone Incense There And His Mouth/Pipe Will Smoke. There Is No Indication Of A Company Or Date This Amazing Object Was Made. I'm Not Sure If He Is Handmade And Unique Or What Era He Is From. All I Know Is This Is The Best $6 I've Spent In A Very Long Time. I Haven't Put An Incense In Him Yet. I Will Update When I Make Sure I Have Cones. Merry Christmas To Me. 💨   
   

#25 I Love Seeing Everyone’s Collections 🎄🎄🎄✨ Mine Has Changed A Bit Over The Years As I’ve Gifted Trees And Been Given More, This Is The Majority, Though There Are A Few Strays Around The House. ♥️ It All Started With The Large One On The Left That Was Given To My Family When I Was A Little Girl, (Our Neighbors Owned A Ceramics Shop) It’s My Favorite Decoration And Is Always The First To Come Out Of Hiding. Every Tree Here Was Either A Gift Or Thrift. Eventually I’d Love To Find A Large White Tree In The Wild ✨✨

#30 After Giving Up On Getting A Christmas Tree I Found This At A Local Thrift Store And It’s Brand New! A True Christmas Miracle❤️ It’s My Son’s First Christmas (Where He Knows What Christmas Is) And He Points Out Every Christmas Tree He Sees. I Was At A Thrift Store With Only $50 In My Bank Account And This Was The Last Tree There. He And I Both Love It 🥰

#32 Could Never Make Out The Writing On This. Picked It Up At A Flea Market Market Because Of My Love For Horses

#44 Purchased At Svdp And Embellished By Me To Qualify As W&w   
   

#45 Just Found This Incredible Walnut Cupboard From The Late 1800s. It Was Used In A General Store To Sell Thread. I Spoke To The Woman Who Had Put It Out On The Curb, And Her Great Grandmother Had Made The Base That It’s Crookedly Sitting On. She Used To Use It To Store Her Children’s Artwork. Not Sure What I’ll Do With The Very Shallow Drawers, But I’m So Thrilled To Bring This Piece Into My Home   
   

#46 I Think I’ve Acquired My Best Thrift Yet From Our Local Town Page😭 I Am Now The Owner Of This Beautiful 1974 Firefly Hot Air Balloon Basket For Free😫😫😫 Edit: Since My Comment Is Buried Amongst Everyone Else’s I Figure I’d Update Here 😊 I Plan To Make A Reading Nook Out Of It And Eventually Make A Stained Glass Globe To Have Over The Top And Place A Light In The Dome. My Oldest Daughter Is Always Reading So It’ll Be Put To Good Use. I Love To Hear All The Suggestions But We Have To Remember These Baskets Aren’t Made To Stay Out In The Elements Especially With Me Living In Wisconsin. The Snow And Rain Isn’t Good For The Wicker And Would Make It More Brittle Over Time. I Want To Keep It In Its Best Condition As Much As Possible💕   
   

#47 I Am The Proud Owner Of This Macaroni Now 😃 Found On Facebook Marketplace!   
   

#48 Found This Weird Sculpture While Thrifting. Don't Know What It Is, But It Will Be A Gag Gift For My Husband. I Have A Feeling He Will Like It. Update: It's Not Wood. It's Plaster Or Stone And Weighs Over 13 Pounds   
   

#49 My Biggest Thrifting Treasure Yet 🫀🌈 Found At Habitat For Humanity. I’m In Love. I Still Have Three More Months Before Finishing My Master’s And Moving Out Of Student Housing, But It Will Live In My Childhood Bedroom Until Then As A Reminder To Push Through The Rest Of Grad School So I Can Enjoy It 💛 Edit To Add: The Brand Is Dyrlund. I Believe It’s From The 60’s But It Does Look Very 80’s! A Little Over $200 For The Couch And Loveseat Combined Made For A Pretty Great Deal   
   

#50 Chicken Purse At Antique Mall. Didn’t Come Home With Me
