Yet Another Thrift Blog

A jar of rubber bands at Value Village for $5. Not a good value:

What is the one thing that I disliked about Thriftapalooza?

Paid a visit to a Goodwill Outlet, and there wasn't much highly exciting to me but I did spend $6 and here is what I got...

Trader Joe's cooler bag (online price $15-$40)

Strawberry Milkshake Pop-Tarts plush set: the soft box, a full toaster pastry, a chomped pastry (sorry that I did not get that fact in the frame!!!), and one Velcro-topped bag. I intend to give this to the Snackin' Shack junkfood museum as soon as I repair the Velcro strip on the 'box' because it's coming off.

Irving Berlin's "White Christmas" sheet music, unknown which print this is but copyrighted 1943.

A bungie. Yeah, every car trunk needs one.

Swag from a Seattle Mariners game: a Eugenio "Geno" Suárez talking bottle opener from 2023, needs a new battery.

A sticky-backed piece of Velcro.

14K gold beads, for my girlfriend.

Magnifying bookmark with a patriotic message. *shrug*

Package of sewing needles from Safeway, and judging by how they're in a round logo package instead of the the square logo adopted in 1980, this might be a few years old. The writing on the back confirms this either is from the 1970s or they did a retro thing.

Hex bit, 7/32". They can't all be 10mm sockets.

This plastic pin made by Hallmark Cards, no date. At first I thought it was a snail or slug on a strawberry but the face/head seems more like a chicken, and it has something gold on its neck. For sure it's all on holly leaves so must be a Christmas thing. [Google Images, halp!] Duh, it's a partridge!... from 1977 (online value is $5-$10).
