Thrift Stores Have A Lot of Weird Items. Here’s the Proof.

I’m not a person who really enjoys going to thrift stores, but I have enough friends that like them, so I’ve spent a pretty good amount of time browsing through the shelves and racks.

And, even in my disinterested state, I’ve noticed that these places of business are filled with…well…very strange items for sale.

Are you ready to check out some really odd things that folks found in thrift stores? Let’s get weird!

1. Need some new art for your wall?

This is definitely a conversation starter.

I’ve never seen a candle like this before…

8. Wear this t-shirt proudly.

Not sure what it means, but still…

Let’s break this down…

Thrift Store Finds That Might Turn You Green With Envy

I didn’t grow up in a family where thrift stores were much of a thing, although we did love a good garage sale on a summer morning. It wasn’t until recently that I became aware of what truly amazing (and creepy and weird) stuff people find secondhand.

These people are clearly no strangers to the hunt, though, and they’ve come up with some pretty intriguing treasures.

16. Definitely seems like the best place to find cosplay pieces.

Finally gave this gem a night out it deserved. This was perfect for Harry Potter Yule Ball event that hosted at my favourite little geek themed bar.
