Part 3
Thrift stores:At a lot of stores you will find a "junk" section.
It is basically stuff that has not been checked but is super cheap (so far everything I bought there was working, but maybe I am lucky). You can find everything there from an HDMI cable, CPUs, RAM, games, cameras, lenses, ...#japan #himeji #thriftstore #bus #gundam #gunpla #nintendo #sony #xbox #consoles #games #travel

Every single time I #sew anything, I get pricked by the pins and needles... like constantly, the whole time. By nightfall, my hands are a mass of band-aids.
Yet every single time I'm shocked and gasp loudly.
It's a day of gasping and band-aids.
But it's always such a surprise.
Every time.

I just saw a #Petite #ULTRA400 #typewriter in a #thriftstore. This is a #toy for children, not a real typewriter. But, as one did in the late 70s to mid 80s, they build it completely functional! It types in CAPS only, but it types. Almost completely made out of plactic this is the 1980 counterpart to an ultra portable notebook or the old iPad you give to your kids. I am SO tempted to buy it...

I found this in the thrift/ charity store that I work at. It is leather purse. I was gonna put it aside to price up but it made a noise and I discovered a coin holder. That had a 50p and this cute note inside...

Join me over on my second channel for a Charity Shop Retro Hunt, looking for retro treasures amongst the vintage tat. Will we find any treasures today, or just Bob & Jean's porcelain elephant from their trip to the Algarve in 1996? Come and find out for yourself as we tour the charity shops (or thrift stores if you prefer) in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire.

Economical Druthers
A local volunteer community encourages people to donate knitted or crocheted squares that can be made into blankets. Those blankets are then given to people who need them, often to people in shelters and temporary housing.
As someone who likes to crochet while watching TV, I saw this as a beneficial use of both my time and miscellaneous leftover yarn. Accordingly, last winter I donated a couple of blankets I had made and I also put together squares that others had made.
This winter I happened upon some very inexpensive yarn at a thrift store and used it to make squares that I hoped would one day become a blanket. I also used up my remaining supply of leftover yarn and these together created 68 squares.
As I looked at the instructions I had received from the volunteer group, I realized I didn’t have enough squares for a queen-size blanket which was their preference. A queen size requires 90 eight-inch squares and a twin size requires 54. When I first asked about this, my assumption was that they would need more twin-size blankets but it seems that there are more families in need than single individuals. So, the polite suggestion was that the larger blanket would be of more use.
My dilemma, then, was what to do with my inadequate supply of squares. Should I make more squares or donate what I had? I decided to donate what I had, but when I got to the volunteer centre I was told that they no longer accepted donations of squares! They already had lots of squares in storage and, instead, needed volunteers to put squares together. I said I would be happy to do that and they said they would be in touch when they had taken a batch out of the storage facility. They also said that they no longer had a supply of yarn that they could give me; the yarn fund had been exhausted.
My 68 squares, which were not quite enough for a blanket, still needed additional squares so I visited a couple of local thrift stores to see if they had any yarn I could use to finish the project. Unfortunately, I was surprised to find that the price of the donated skeins was quite high. It was too high to be a bargain and almost as much as I would pay for yarn on sale at a local department store. I was torn. I wanted to finish the blanket and I wanted to support the thrift store, but I didn’t want to pay so much for miscellaneous yarn. I would rather pay a little more and choose the texture, weight, and colour than I preferred.
I went online to find out the sale prices for yarn at the local craft stores and I also checked out Amazon. My preference is to shop local when possible, but when you are trying to put together a blanket out of leftover yarn, you lean towards the least expensive option. I ended up ordering from Amazon, even though I would much rather have bought from a local charity or craft store.
Sometimes, your druthers are just not economical.

Found at the #ThriftStore: a Standard Register Business Forms #template (No. 1583) for drawing a #FlowChart for computer systems. Includes shapes for "TAB CARD," "MAGNETIC TAPE," and a flowing banner shape for "PUNCHED TAPE." I looked it up on that big auction site, and apparently the previous owner of this particular template renamed the "PREDEFINED PROCESS" shape as "ACTION." 49¢

I just found an Onkyo receiver for $8 at a thrift store to round out my poor-man’s hi-fi stack. (Turntable not pictured.) It sounds amazing!
