National Geographic Kids magazines. Only found them once. They are way too expensive when I buy them new.

Other than that, I mostly buy kids books from thrift stores.

I do thrift, but my most recent great find was at a queer clothing swap downtown. It is a long, black, integrated flowy pant + skirt. The skirt really billows when I walk or it gets caught in the breeze. My silhouette tends to be top heavy, and the profile of this piece really balances it out.

Oooh! Oooh! I found this coin!

I paid five dollars for it, and later I learned it’s made of 90% silver. It’s some sort of commemorative coin celebrating Andorra.

A two piece seersucker suit in the standard style for ~$30. I usually can’t find anything off the rack with long enough arms, but it fit me perfectly!

A portable dishwasher! I was volunteering at the store at the time so I got a special rate and dibs. It’s been a lifesaver since my house doesn’t have one build in.

I found a MCM couch and 2 armchairs in excellent condition. Whoever loved them last had them recently reupholstered in good quality fabric. They are so comfy to sit in!

I am collecting Santas and I have a few nice ones that can be repaired or repurposed. I also got a nice picture frame with a cut little cross stich. The cross stitch isn’t my thing though so figuring what to do with it.

Arduino diy handheld for 10 bucks

I found a rainproof outdoor jacket in mint condition and it fits perfectly. I paid 8€, shop price is ~120€.

An old glass-bodied air fryer convection oven, that still works, for $5.

It’s loud as shit, and probably awful with electric use, but I already have an air fryer for food/regular use. This one is for the garage to cook or dry things I wouldn’t want in the house or in my food air fryer specifically. Like when I bake-sterilize eggshells for 2 hours as a calcium supplement for my chickens. Smells awful, so do it outside. Or when I want to dry hot peppers quickly but don’t want my house to be a chemical war zone.
