A leg up

You should buy this prosthetic leg just in case. You never know what will happen to your real leg.

Sweet Shades

No no, someone didn't donate Chelsey. They donated the glasses. They are awesome!


Reminds me of someone I dated once

It's a drink jacket!
Also, I wasn't able to post a donation yesterday because I had an unfortunate accident with my phone and a bathtub. I'll stop there because the details are just too horrifying but it involved rice getting stuck inside the phone and rattling around like a maraca.

Some people have weird decorating ideas

This kangaroo rat is cute but I don't know if I would want one to decorate my house. Maybe if I had a desert landscape it would look cute in the yard!

Donation of the day - 100th post!!

This lightbulb bottle is just cool! I think a whole shelf of them would look neat.

Fine Artwork - Meep meep

This gorgeous rendition of the wildly popular Roadrunner is painted on high quality black velvet in the most popular Elvis style. No home is complete without this limited edition piece.

Crazy Cool Hat that I love

I asked my boss to model this donation. He was extremely helpful while protecting his identity. He didn't want to get stalkers because of his devastating good looks so he posed backwards. The pointy tassel part is my favorite.

The Thinker version 2.0

Is this an accurate depiction of real life or just fantasy? It looks like The Thinker got some action. Sometimes the smart guy gets the girl! Unless The Thinker isn't really smart and that's why he sits there so long, in befuddlement. I'm going with the smart guy gets the girl this round. After some more research, I've found out that the same artist that sculpted this, also sculpted "The Thinker". This is called "The Kiss". Auguste Rodin.

Creepy Doll

This right here.This is one of the reasons that people are creeped out by dolls. It's made out of ceramic or porcelain. It's also missing any helpful clues to it's gender and it's missing toes.

Vintage Lighter and ash tray set

I just thought this was really cool. When you push the door handle, the lighter pops up on the front. The top opens to hold cigarettes and the ash tray sets into the back. It's SO great! Too bad I don't smoke, this ashtray would almost make smoking cool but only if smoking didn't slowly kill you in various disgusting and eventually painful ways.

Vital information box!

For nervousness too! The box was empty but I found the text inside to be informative and enlightening. Also, a little disturbing.

NOT the 1-up mushroom

Yet another disturbing, desiccated food item.
To be fair, this was at the bottom of a Harmon's box so they probably didn't even know they donated it.

Prehistoric Planter (I love alliteration)

Dress your plants in the latest trend. The fashions from the Jurassic period are IN this season.

Portable boy toy

He's lost some weight!
Favorite friend quote:
Hey, I just met you. 
And this is crazy...
But I'm a floating head. 
So buy me maybe?

Treasure!

The gemstones were a great donation but the donation of the day was actually the appraisal that a wonderful Jewelry store donated. The appraisal was valued at $500, the gemstones were valued a lot higher than that.

Parking sign

Don't forget to put your genealogy in the car so you can get the good parking spots. Favorite friend quote "That's oddly specific."

Really?

To be fair, the thrift store I work at is a hospital thrift store. Sometimes we do get medical equipment, like wheelchairs and walkers, to sell. I just can't imagine anyone shopping at a thrift store for one of these items.


Hilarious old book

The title page had me laughing a lot

Receptacle for your sorting needs

I had to leave work unexpectedly and my boss was kind enough to text me this picture. My favorite customer quote, "This box is too small for my rejects."

Lapel pin

The perfect gift for that hardworking doctor in your life. It reminds me of that kid show that all the animals have the name as part of their bodies to help teach kids how to read.

Ching ching

Everyone should have a set of these. I may have tried these out in the back where no one could see my crazy dance moves.
