Lisa Frank Cookie Jar Noise Bear and Some Flocked Animals


Hi guys I haven't been taking as many pictures but I'm going to try to work on that.


My luck finding stuff has been on and off but that's what you expect thrifting.

this days score was pretty awsome

I got the very dirty dog with the floppy ears with the two video games.

I already had Mario kart but at 2.99 I always have room for another copy.

I was gifted the exclusive coin that originally came with Mario Galaxy but I didn't have the game so this one is being added to my personal collection.


On to the close ups



I was walking to the toy isle and I could see this in the distance.  I was shocked, and I froze for a second.  I remember I was having a debate if it was a Lisa Frank Cookie Jar.  What's the chance that there's just a Lisa Frank Cookie Jar sitting there.  It looked just like the Lisa Frank Dog so I decided to take it home.  It's got a few small chips but I couldn't care less.  It's so yellow and bright I'm in love!!


I got the noise bear on a separate trip.  I had no idea what it was but it looked cool.  Apparently that one is super rare.


I love flocked animals.  I've been collecting the puppy/kitty/animals in my pocket.
These were all in a bag for $1.  I didn't know what they were but most of them had stickers on the bottoms.


I later found out that these should  not have been with the toys.  They're very old,  quite collectible, and of course very cute.


I'm not 100% on what I spent.  But it was probably around $16

Fox and the Hound, Gi Joe, schleich, Dinosaurs, Pokemon


It was a long week.  I usually thrift twice a week, but I had to work extra hours so I only went out once this week.  But that's alright I haven't been finding much during the week anyway.

The first thing I found was the Charizard plush.  He was just sitting out in the open.  The fox plush is from Fox and the Hound,  I don't think there's allot of Fox and the Hound merch so I picked him up.  The dinosaur is from avon, and it came with a little baby dino.  The sheep looks old but it doesn't have a tag, it's a music box plush.  The poodle was picked up as a gift.



I have a few yo yo's that  picked up from a church sale years ago, ever since I haven't been able to pass up vintage yo yo's new in package.

The bag of metal is hard to see but I'll talk more about that at the end


I've had some bad luck dealing with other people while thrifting lately.
Two older guys were tossing stuff on the toys so I had to ask if it was okay to look through them.  They said yes but didn't move any of their stuff...  I had to move it, thank's i'd love to.

I filled one large bag.  I found a few old Gi Joe's, animals, part of a power ranger, etc.


The small group of dinosaurs are schleich.  There must be allot of hat less Toy Story Woody's because I usually only find his hat.


I've been slowly collecting these vintage playskool dinosaurs.  
I know they're old but there usually covered in junk and require a cleaning.


Mystery toys again.

These guys are cool, but I'm not sure what they are (no markings).  There super hard plastic and might be from the same time as Gi Joe.

Total cost $2.00

Okay first off I want to say this is not something I'd normally pick up.  I was browsing the jewelry counter on my way out and I noticed a bag, that I thought was  full of coins.


(super terrible picture ughh)

I asked to see it, but it wasn't coins instead they were religious pendents.
I noticed a few of them were sterling silver.  About two years ago everyone was looking for gold at garage sales.  I was never lucky enough to find gold, but I was able to find some sterling silver.  Since then I've been picking up cheap sterling silver, when I find it.  I also thought that I could gift a few.



I'm so glad I did while most of them don't say sterling silver quite a few do.




There was allot of squinting as some of these are quite small but these are all silver.
Not only are these silver but the large one recently sold on ebay for $70.
So I don't think I'll be scraping these, lol.

I paid $3 for the bag ^_^

Preschool Peter Pan, Toy Story, How to train your dragon, FAO schwarz Dog Plush

Sorry guys I'm a bit behind but I'll catch up soon.


I picked this stuff up last Friday.  It wasn't a great day for finds but I did come home with a few new toys.


I was going to pass on buying a bag of toys but then I found Peter Pan and Rex so I put together a small bag.  


I didn't even fill the bag because well there wasn't much.  And of course filler rubber ducky's.


This guy is kind of cool, he reminds me of the preschool marvel figures.

I found a Hercules figure from the same toy line a few months back, I can't seem to figure out what this toy line is called.




He might be new in a box, but the missiles are missing.  So I'll open him and discard the box to save on space.

Winx Doll Lot, Monster High, Peter Pan Gator and a Shelby Furby


Today's Finds




I first found the plush Peter Pan alligator.  I picked him up, he made a rattle sound, so he was defiantly a keeper.


I continued searching and some one must have picked up the bag moved it out of the toy area.    
This bag was hidden with some crafting items.

I'm not a big fan of Winx, but I noticed a monster high and a Novi Star so I was interested.
Usually bags like this go for 20-10 bucks.

Surprisingly someone must have miss marked the bag as it was only $5.

I took one last look and that's when I found this super cute Furby.

It looks like a squished Furby apparently they're called Shelbys.

I can't say when it started but I have quite a collection of Furbys, I don't know if he's going to stay with me but it's still pretty cool.



This is what I pulled out of the bag.  Some of it's garbage but the dolls look like new.  The only major issue is that strangly none of them have wings..  I'll probably find them in a $20 bag in a few weeks, lol.

Power ranger zoids are a must have Power Ranger Pin Ball Machine





I went to a church sale a while ago.  It's always hit or miss. 
One year I got a huge ET plush for $1, another year I got a few american girl baby dolls (everyone has missed them and they were on the floor).

This year was definitely a good year.  I had planned to go with a few other people but they had conflicting plans so I went solo.



 I had to wait in line and I got stuck behind a lady with a push cart.. This of course could mean the difference between finding something or just missing something.

I thought this was the case.  The sale opened , even though I was probably the 8th person in line a bunch of people were already at the toys.  I took a  quick look and the small two tables and my heart sank.  I couldn't see anything then I looked over and an older lady had a box of power rangers...  She kept looking through the box and I didn't move but apparently what she was looking for wasn't in the box.  I was on the other side of the table as soon as she put it down I ducked down and dragged it my way.  


 

All of the power rangers where in the little deteriorating box (except for the pin ball machine)

I was so excited as zords are my favorite, and I've never found any coins!! 
The strange triangle power ranger thing is corroded to the extreme.  I haven't had a chance to work on fixing it.  The white rangers sword has a damaged tip but that, and the other weapons are an amazing find.  

I then proceeded to  grab a few star trek things two play sets and a figure.
The Polly pocket place set is newer but it had a vintage Polly pocket inside.

I found a few Pokemon (one was sticky..) a mcdonalds lps, a 101 Dalmatians necklace and a cute set of 101 dalmatians.  I think the set is pretty old but I've had trouble idling it.



Plush take up so much room but I decided to take a chance on snuggles and Kermit is a must grab.

I went to check out, he started to take the toys out of the box and was surprised at how much I had.  He called it quits and said $12 sound good?

So I dropped off everything at my car and went back for a second look and that's when I found the pin ball machine.  

I think it was 2-3 I don't know if it works yet but I excited to have it.
