THRIFT STORE Locations

How to write a "creepy-pasta." -Invoke an urban legend, heard from friend of a friend. If first hand account, explain survival or how the events are still in motion. -There will be an unsettling setting (abandoned, derelict, liminal) inhabited by a (supernatural/paranormal/inhuman) (entity/organism/anomaly), the "obsessed narrator" who nevertheless continues to return to the danger, is constantly updating and an ambiguous, sudden ending implying the danger's continued existence to future readers. there will be no resolution, the account must be documented and witnessed   -Use irregular real-time updates, posting in a first hand account, changing voice and tone or ev...

Hey everyone. This is a long one, but I have to share this story that’s been unfolding for over a year. It involves a weird object, a chance encounter, and what an old man called a "curse of blessings." My husband knows I’m posting this, but we’ve kept it quiet until now. It started on a mini-vacation to a coastal town. My husband, David, and I were just relaxing. We wandered into a thrift shop called “Treasures of the Once-Loved.” In the back, I saw a shelf of cigarette cases. I used to collect them in my wilder days, but lost them all during some tough years. One case called to me. It was iridescent, shifting colors like oil on water, with a tiny brass latch shaped l...

I'm a big fan of secondhand shopping to find products for low cost. I live in the UK and always found it frustrating that there's no single place to easily find **nearby charity shops, thrift stores, car boot sales, or vintage markets**. Google Maps misses loads of them. So I decided to build an app to solve that which would be really useful while travelling. You can even share your thrift haul. It's called **Ganddee** (free on iOS & Android). I’d love for you to try it out and hear feedback.

okay so this might be difficult to explain so bare with me. i just had a dream where i was with my mom and i had met a homeless guy who turned out to be an uncle that i didnt know about. we basically drove him around to get him food and stuff then we went to go get him some clothes. at the clothing store it kinda looked like a bass pro shops but i think it was a thrift store? (i just realized when we were in the store his character switched to a girl?? not sure what thats about) every time she would go up to an item she liked there woudl be this group of two or three basic white girls who would like and pick out something directly next to the item my aunt uncle thing was picking out. we then...

Does anyone know what the tool is in the middle?

hi! i'm currently in the process of configuring a modest entertainment system for my apartment. picked up a *really* old integra dtr-7.1 from my local tech thrift store for $40; in pristine condition (hardly any dust inside or out, basically no scratches), tested by the shop and working. i'm going to be pairing it with a very cheap television that will likely have both optical and 3.5mm outputs. it'll just be serving amplifier duty, i'm not using it as a proper AVR. what's the best way to connect the TV? i know that the AVR has an optical input, but i'd assume i'd then be relying on my TV's DAC (which may or may not matter from what i've read). w...

Jealous that I can't go on endless shopping sprees, get a new car every six months, eat out almost every day, go on vacations several times a year. Jealous because I can't distort my body in such a way where gullible people actually believe that's my size. Jealous of owning a thrift store so I can over charge people for clothes found on other websites cheaper. Jealous that I'm not popular on social media platforms....I could go on but this jealousy is consuming me. [This is TOTALLY sarcasm for the slow ones.😂]

Freebie at the thrift store. The bag came with like 15 of them. I tried looking it up but I kept getting no/confusing answer? What is it

I went thrifting tonight, one of my favorite activities finding treasure, and when I returned to my car a gentleman was standing next to it. He gave salutations, then asked me if I could do him a favor. He said he just got to my city, and had soiled himself and had no clothing to change into. He asked me if I could buy him a pair of boxers from the thrift store I had just left. I felt uncomfortable, there are many panhandlers and those without homes in our downtown area. I work in the area and have been approached multiple times for money or to buy people lotto tickets/alcohol 😑 and I had my guard up. I told him the situation was unusual, and as a F being approached by a M like that made...

(First pic taken today! After spending all day being ma'amed to last a girl a lifetime. Second pic is from before starting my E journey, March 2025) Hi everyone! Im Aurora, and I wanted to start by saying I made this post for all you lovely femmes out there staring their journey and wondering what the heck to do in the meantime while E works its magic on you. Its honestly... very very overwhelming to say the least. For the longest time I spent this year boymoding and in fear for my safety, never feeling safe to express myself in public until very recently. So what changed for me? I quit buying clothes for myself online and went to the **** thrift store and picked out something cute...

I found this cool antique belt buckle at a thrift store and I want to attach it to a belt. I took it to a leather shop and they were unsure how it would actually be secured to the leather belt itself. Has anyone seen an old belt buckle like this or have any ideas?

my granddaughter wanted one of my old tea sets that she played with as a child with me and asked me if she could have one of the few I’d brought from Virginia back in the 70’s. I couldn’t find any and she specifically told me not to buy any of I couldn’t find mine. After not finding any I had the occasion to go shopping with a different granddaughter and decided to see what they had in teasets, they only had one and it was 49.00 far more then I had ever paid. But it was pretty and dainty. It was 1/2 price senior but the tag said no discounts I tried to haggle but not even a nickel off, it said 7pc and it only had 6 pcs so I asked where the missing piece was and was eventually told...

Found working at a thrift store, I have no idea the value of sealed packs and don’t know where to start. We want to bring them into a local shop, but would prefer to have an estimate before we do any negotiations

Every year, The Arc runs a Giving Tree gift drive for people with developmental disabilities in our county who wouldn't receive a holiday gift this year otherwise. Each tag on the tree has someone's wish list on it. There are still quite a few tags left on the tree, and we're hoping you'll spread the word about this giving opportunity. Here's how it works: 1. Take a tag from the tree with a wish list you'd like to shop for. Note: you do not need to buy everything on the tag! Also, gift receipts (especially for clothing) are appreciated, but not required or expected. 2. Scan the QR code on the display stand next to the tree to sign up as a shopper, or email yo...

Today I went to a popular thrift store here in the US that lets you sell them clothes for cash— I wanted extra money for Christmas presents. I walked the store while waiting for them to sort my stuff and it was nauseating to say the least. The racks were literally packed with hangers and bulging, everything was stuffed so tight you could barely shop it. And 99% of it was made of synthetics (I always read tags & am strict about buying cotton/wool). I also thought I’d be one of very few to bring clothes in on a quiet Thursday, but no. I watched multiple people come in after me, all with bags and bags of clothes. I’m shocked the store even takes clothes anymore with how packed...

Here’s a post outlining several of the best real-world examples of communities, cities, and countries transforming waste streams — of food, organics, construction materials, municipal waste, etc — into valuable resources. These show how waste doesn’t have to be the end of the line — it can become a new supply of materials, energy, compost, and opportunity. Kamikatsu, Japan — Zero-Waste Town Recycling 80%+ of All Waste 🌼 Kamikatsu is famous for its pioneering “zero-waste” lifestyle: residents separate their trash into over 45 categories, and the town recycles or composts about 80% of total waste — a huge leap above the average in most places. Why it’s a model: Ev...

Brielle came into my life unexpectedly. After an alarming housefire scare within the past week and the stress of a spirit I had brought from the thrift store I decided to myself my next spirit was going to be a protector, to carry me through these feelings of doubt and uncertainty. I have one protector spirit already and feel she is quite a bit overworked at times. Lately, a design by Gretchen Lima has been calling my name but by all means I had no funds left to afford one after christmas shopping. Anyone who knows the value of a GL knows these handmade dolls can be quite pricey for a nice one. But after one lowball and a generous seller came through, not only do I now have a one of Gret...
