I used to buy the nastiest vintage ties from a local thrift shop as they were only a buck or two a peice. My most prized one was a puke green tie made out of burlap with pink and yellow polka dots.

I've been looking at a set of golf clubs at the local thrift store- it's only $12 for a full set and a bag- I don't play golf- but if I had clubs - I'd at least go to a driving range and hit balls into oblivion. So far this summer season- I haven't found any real good items at yard sales- but I'm looking.

On the weekend, I walked away with a 25 cent frisbee- that's pennies per throw- I wish *insert whichever DMFFA member name here* mother was as cheap.

I had my pool league tonight at this hole in the wall bar, and it was right next to
this crazy vintage shop I have never noticed before. It looks a little fancy so I don't
know what the prices will be, but it'll be worth a trip back down there just to try on
stuff. I saw this orange jacket with all this intense beading only on the bottom side
of the wrist. Pill box hats and everything. Tea, anyone?

most vintage shops are overpriced it might be fun trying on stuff and fucking around but if you truely want vintage stuff youre better off garage sales and thrift stores

i got a bright orange winter jacket that had people express on the back (which is an old low cost airline) for $2.50 and i also got this sweet ass old smokers jacket but my sister threw old mashed potatoes on it so its dead now

I got an old electric guitar that I believe was homemade in the sixties.
Still works just fine... and it has now become my favorite guitar to play.
It's also really frickin' lightweight!

I got Bucky Fellini on vinyl for $7 at a used record store, not exactly a thrit store, but to me it was a hell of a bargain.
