Speaking of not buying things, here are some things I saw at one of my thrifts recently but didn't buy. I am very disappointed in this store lately, it is getting overly crap-filled with high prices. For instance, shoe prices used to be .50 or $1. (I once bought a very nice pair of Dansko shoes for $1 there and re-sold them for $100+.) When I recently checked their shoe prices, on some I saw a $9 price tag. For a pair of nothing special used shoes. No way.
They had a very old wheelchair (who would buy something like this?? I mean, if you needed a wheelchair, you wouldn't use one that was built in 1940 (or whenever). And I don't see it as being something someone would buy as a collectible.)

A shelf for your monitor. I bet the company that makes these is out of business.

$5 for an 'NSYNC bear. $5??? I wouldn't buy it if it was .50.

That wheelchair is awesome. I can definately see it being someone's collectible. I would have bought in a heartbeat.
Wheelchairs are collectible. There is a good amrket for them. Don't particularly want it in my house...
I used to have one of those monitor shelves. How funny.
I second the "wheelchair is awesome" comment. I too would have been all over it - I've actually been on the lookout for one for my Halloween display!
