1. This pin of Buzz Lightyear and Sheriff Woody kissing
This Redditor found this gem while he was in Taiwan. Since same sex marriage has been legalized recently, badges in this theme were sold in shops, including thrift stores. It’s absolutely weird, especially since these two cartoon characters are quite close in the movie, but definitely not in that way!
Now, this is one find that will surely creep people out on Halloween. For only 20 bucks, this guy managed to get the scariest mask around and it’s absolutely worth it! It may seem fun to see such a mask on daylight, but it will surely creep you out if you see it in the dark!
Well, some things leave you without words. This is one of them.
4. This Christmas-themed sweater
Well, this can be one way to let everyone know what Christmas means. It is really Jesus Christ’s birthday, but we can’t help but notice that he seems un-happy in this image of him.
We all know how cats are always after mice. But, this portrait gives their endless chase a whole new meaning. This cat would surely catch this kind of mouse because it can’t run away!
6. This taxidermied squirrel
Does this squirrel look life-like to you? If you answered Yes, that’s because it is an actual squirrel! It died and was taxidermied so it can ride on this boat and pose as if it’s paddling. Who would buy such a thing?
7. This Matryoshka that bears Eminem’s pictures
Matryoshka dolls came from Japan and are widely known as toys that contain a smaller doll inside a doll. This thrift store item definitely missed the point when instead of a cute doll’s image, various pictures of Eminem are painted on them! This is a great find if you are an Eminem fan, though.
8. This Orca that has an unexpected transformation
This toy Orca that can be bought in Okinawa’s Churaumi Aquarium in Japan can transform in an unexpected way. It’s transformation from being an Orca to becoming a robot is simply unbelievable, not to mention bizarre.
Millie Bobbie Brown’s character in the hit series
Stranger Things absolutely made an impact to the show’s viewers. The person who did this shirt seem to like Eleven too much that they decided to put her in their shirt’s design. As a fan of the show, I’d say this is a really great find!
I don’t like the chair at all. But what’s even more puzzling is that the guy on its packaging looks weirdly proportioned! He has really tiny feet.
11. There are no wrong answers now
Remember that dress that sparked a lot of debate online whether it is a blue and black dress or a white amd gold dress? Well, there are no wrong answers now because both color combination are in this dress!
12. Pluto’s emotional retort
Planet Pluto was finally removed from the list of planets in the Solar System. And for that, this is Pluto’s emotional retors printed in a shirt sold in a local thrift store.
13. Every cat lover’s dream sofa
This sofa is absolutely every cat lover’s dream! That’s not only because it looks comfortable but because it has cat faces all over it. It seems like thrift stores have a lot of cat lover’s stuff around.
14. This tiny jug’s unusual prayer
Some items have inspirational messages or prayers written on them that are meant to encourage us so we buy them. This tiny jug has a prayer, too, but it certainly is one of the weirdest and funniest I have seen so far!
15. Little girl found this weird mask
This little girl came up to her uncle while they were in the thrift shop because she found a cool mask. This is the mask she was refereing to. Looks familiar?
This image is surely a combination of cute and unique! This feline detective is another item that any cat lover would want to buy!
17. This amazing painting
At first glance, this portrait of Yoda looks like something that was printed out and placed in a frame. But, if you look closer, it becomes apparent that it is an actual painting and at that moment, a seemingly cheap find becomes a worthy collectible item!
18. Batman and Robin 40 years later
Some of us really love superheroes and even collect items that are related to their favorite characters. I wonder if Batman fanatics would decide to buy even this.
This book’s pasted warning note against trusting children makes me want to think about what kind of story is inside it to end up having to warn people about kids. And I cannot even imagine how one could come up with a concept such as “Lord of the Flies”! Now, I’m really intrigued.
20. Every cat lover’s dream dress
If cat lovers went crazy when they saw the sofa in the previous slides, this is another item that they will surely want to have! This purple gem with cat faces all over it is definitely a must-have for ladies who really like cats.

22. King Meowsy the Purrrth
Thrift stores have quite a lot of cat pictures in their shelves and some images show these felines in different characters! If seeing the cat in a detective suit dis not shock you enough, this adorable image of a cat who looks like a royal will absolutely surprise you!
Just wow. This pin just left me speechless. I’m not sure if it’s because of the message or because Trump has abs in it!
