    The Official Thrift / Discount Store Bragging Thread Part III (Sept 2018-)

    It started with a garage sale with a stack of old t-shirts on a folding table. Ended with the entire back of the car full of clothes… Teaser

    I think it may have been a lowly striped Isaia a few times. :laugh:

    Managed to find some stuff in this mess. Highlights. One of my favorite label designs.

    I’ve had good luck with plain old Dawn dish soap and warm water. Clean up most of the grimey speaker grilles I’ve encountered. Another vote for keeper. It was meant to be.

    Nice! I’d guess those Wranglers to be early 70’s. I’m far from an expert, though. On another note, I spent the morning giving these old theater seats some much needed TLC. They cleaned up pretty dang nice for only having used a few off-the-shelf products I had on hand. Before After

    It’s been slow…. Garage sale season has officially started, though. Antique theatre seats. I think they’ll clean up decently. Swung by the thrift store on the way home. Couldn’t pass this one up.

    I can’t even remember the last time I bought a tie. I normally don’t even look anymore. This morning, however, I managed to catch a glimpse of an unusually nice looking paisley tie and took a closer look. I thought it was a Zegna before checking the label. Then found its two siblings hanging...

    It goes fast. My oldest was colicky and hardly slept. We had this bouncing exercise ball that we used to have to use to “bounce” him to sleep. Rocking wouldn’t cut it. I remember being in there at 2-3 am bouncing his back to sleep. The minute you’d set him down, his eyes would be wide open and...

    I remember those days well. The days are long but the years fly by. My oldest will be 10 this year. Crazy.... What season of TPB are you on? It's one of my favorite shows. I am rewatching them now for about the 4th time now. Never gets old. They really remind me of the Fabulous Furry Freak...

    Just catching up on the thread and read about @kbadgley84 I am deeply saddened by this news. He was a long-time member of SF and he had such great posts. He had a wealth of knowledge. My prayers go out to his family.

    A friend of our's from church works for Goodwill's e-commerce department, so I got the inside scoop on how things are now run in my area. It explains a lot (hardly any good vinyl, no sunglasses, no jewelry/watches, artwork and the decent clothing finds have been very slim over the past few...

    Well the motorcycle didn’t pan out, unfortunately. It was cool to find, though. I did manage to find a few things, though. Super cool 70’s McGregor coat. Definitely a keeper. Any ideas on a style/designer of these chairs? They definitely have “the look”

    Unfortunately the house has been vacant for years, so condition is not exactly perfect. Still very salvagable, with a few that may clean up very nicely. I am hoping to get a better look on Sunday.

    The Official Thrift / Discount Store Bragging Thread Part III (Sept 2018-)

    Long story short, I bought some old t-shirts from a garage sale back in the fall. Asked if they had more and the lady said she had more at her other property. She said she'd call me when she was ready to have me over to look at what was there because it was a mess. I told her I don't mind a...

    Haha yes. Found this in the dining room. There’s a Laverda buried in the living room in front of the fireplace… https://www.cycleworld.com/story/bikes/moto-laverda-italian-motorcycle-history/

    Didn’t expect to find this here. See if you can spot it.

    It's crazy. I don't even see them at the stores anymore, the kids are on top of it. Anything Carhartt. I pulled a thrashed overseas-made Carhartt out of a dumpster back in the fall. Sold on the bay a couple months ago for $120 at auction. It's been going on for many years. I had a deadstock...

    :laugh: I would mostly relate that to the fact that there's only two stores left in our area that carry what we would consider high-end men's tailored stuff, and one of them has a great Isaia department. I found an original (70's) Lava Lamp about 6-7 years ago, very similar to your's. It had...
