Just thinking about how my local thrift shop manifests items shortly after I speak to friends/family about said item. Like, my brother, sibling and sister on three separate occasions independent of the others all commented on the oddness of the store always having exactly what is desired….. I can’t describe the oddness of the situation

Edit: sorry for putting everything in the tags

#it’s starting to get kind of weird #like #it’s not just that the same stuff shows up repeatedly (although it sometimes will)#but that something I’ll be thinking about for a year will show up (ex. a loon shaped coin bank my grandmother owns was there… down to the #sign around his neck that said ‘‘loonie bank’’)#or a month (ex. I bought my childhood era lightsaber from eBay and then two months later four of the exact year and colours I wanted were in #the toy section all at once)#or even within the minute (ex. a wooden crossstitch scroll frame that I was asking my father to make for me (since they are normally $30)#and five minutes later I found a scroll frame of the EXACT dimensions needed for my projects #Edit: just remembered another one #my sister and I were dressing up as Crowley and Aziraphale for Halloween and she forgot about the wig until the day before #we went to Spirit Halloween Walmart the dollar store you name it we went there #we weren’t even looking for a nice one at that point just a cheap white bob cut wig #but when I tell you we walked into that store with no hope and found the most perfectly coloured styled and length wig at that thrift store #good omens #thrifting #pretty sure that the store is alive and my family has somehow accidentally gotten the thing to like us
