Bought a Marmot tent for $15. Expected to be missing parts and poles. Forgot about it and years later took it for a buddy for him to use and it was complete. $150 tent brand new.

Last week I brought home a pair of mint condition Advent Baby II speakers for $2.99.
I have made so many "junk shop" scores I would not know where to start. Most folks tellme I should open a museum.
It gets real bad when you start checking "goodwill.com" every night too!!
Happy hunting!

Here. Its marked with a 6. And it six inches tall and six inches wide at the top. It was covered in rust.
I soaked it in vinegar for about a week. Then wire wheeled it. Then seasoned like a cast iron pan.
I paid four dollars and change for it. Gotta admit, I a tad bit jealous!

I got a bag of 20 Titlist Pro V1 golf balls at the Lynnwood Goodwill for $3. A couple had been used but the rest looked new.
Also found a number of good tools for pennies on the dollar. That's the first section I check when I get there.

Pair of beautiful ca. 1950's 18k gold drop/chandelier earrings, mixed in with costume jewellery. Paid $3.32 for them. Even at scrap price they're worth about $750, give or take a hundred--they're heavy.
I still don't know how the store missed them. It was the Jubilee Reach thrift store up on 148th NE.

Both of the monitors I have attached to this computer, came from goodwill.
12 bucks for one, 19 bucks for the other.
One is a plasma, apparently, and has a problem with things 'burning in' on the screen. The other is fine.
Both are obviously usable, in my estimation.
