Thrift Store Finds That Were so Good These People Had to Brag About Them
6. Pulling the Wool Over Your Eyes
One of those fabled thrift store discoveries that experienced buyers dream about—a Pendleton blanket for just $3. Established in 1863, Pendleton Woollen Mills has long been known for turning out some of the best wool blankets available in America. These blankets are legacy items made with 100% pure virgin wool, renowned for their great warmth, durability, and unique designs; they are not just any throws. Given their retail worth of about $500, finding one for just $3 is very amazing. Pendleton blankets are unique because of their manufacturing method, which calls for the use of specialist looms and mastered processes passed down over generations. The fact that someone was able to get such a fine piece for less than the cost of a coffee shows the amazing possibilities concealed in thrift store aisles. This discovery exactly explains why committed thrifers usually advise looking through every aisle and bin since you never know when you can come across a really valuable item at an exceptional price.
