UM, HELLO? For some perspective, SMEG toasters normally retail for over $200. This one was found at a yard sale for $20. If you need me, I'll be over here burning with jealousy.
"My boyfriend found this vintage sofa on Facebook marketplace for $100! We were the second party to inquire - luckily the first people never showed up to pick it up! We just finished fully cleaning it and re-stuffing the seat cushions."
What's good, Mary McFly? This entire Back to the Future costume was thrifted. That vest is a good find — I can't remember the last time I saw a red, puffy vest in stores.
This purchase.
"When the checker asked me what this was, I muttered that it’s for making coffee and ran away. $1200 La Pavoni Europiccola espresso maker for $6.50 at Goodwill. My coffee dreams have now been fulfilled."
"Found at local Goodwill: an exact copy of the sweater my mom has owned for at least a couple decades."
There's no way I'd be able to resist picking up a sweater that matches one my mom owns! This is cute af.
'Me: “How much are these? There’s no price.” Lady: “$10 for both.”'
Oh sure, just a cheeky $10 for some LE CREUSET. No big deal. These two would retail for over $300.
"The thrift gods were once again gracious to me, I got that suit jacket several months ago and just yesterday found the matching pants at Goodwill!" And it's an awesome suit, too!
This gorgeous dress was Reddit user baltering_magdalene's dream dress. She found it at Goodwill for a mere $40, and the craziest part? It fit perfectly! I'd call that fate.
"My greatest fb marketplace purchase to date. $300. Do I have enough friends to fill it? No. Do my dogs treat it like a racing track, absolutely."
That shape is AWESOME.
"Internalized homophobia and misogyny I thought I had long ago dealt with has always kept me from exploring this side of myself. Well, on my last thrift run I said to hell with that, and when I tell you I have never felt so elegant, I mean that in a heart changing way."
King.
"30 years ago my late great grandfather shut down his men’s clothing store. Today I bought a suit tailored by him nearly 400 miles away in a Goodwill."
This is a more expensive thrift find, but it would totally be worth the price. It would go for way more than $150 at West Elm, let's be real.
"This professionally made nutcracker/prince outfit for $10."
I think my favorite part is his facial expression. That's the face of a man who knows the meme power he just unlocked with his purchase.
"Went to the Goodwill to pick up something, and saw a painting that looked just like one my grandmother would have painted. IT WAS HER PAINTING!! To my knowledge, they were sold about 25 years ago. I thought they were lost forever. Guess I will be stopping every day for a while."
