I didn't Even Know I Needed That Thrift Store
When scientists come up with an automatic bed maker or self-cleaning bathroom, I am going to be the first person in line to buy them.
However, there are some "inventions" that turn up on the thrift store shelves that I really didn't know I ever needed...and still don't.
Like this Potato Clock kit.
What happens when this baby starts to rot? The smell will wake you up before the alarm goes off.
And these two "Retirement Kits" may be missing the main ingredient...a 401k.
Although there are Money Seeds in the this one, so that's probably just as good.
I'm actually not even sure what's in this box. From the cover maybe a cruise ship and a plane.
A "Design Your Own Llama Kit." I have kind of always wanted to design my own llama.
This paunchy golfer will hold your golf tees, so I guess that is useful,
but I feel kind of weird about taking one out.
I did decide I needed this puppet show set from the sixties, mostly because I thought someone on Etsy will really think they need it and purchase it from me.
I was excited when I found it still in the box and looks like it may never have been used.
All the accessories were there too.
These attachable heads for example...they're not too creepy, right?!
Mark is hoping someone is as excited as I think they will be and buys it soon, so our house is puppet-show free once again.
And in the blink of an eye...it's time for the Easter Bunnies to invade the shelves!
I love this, Heather! I found my favorite watch & sunglasses in a thrift store in Albuquerque 3 yrs ago.
ReplyDeleteThat town is solid thrift & junk stores so better keep far away.
Cheers,

Definitely sounds like a place I could get into a lot of trouble!
