I wanted to post my more in-depth thrift tips.

I had an ask a while ago asking for my advice on tips. And I’ve had this in my drafts for a while just to make sure I really added everything I wanted to. So I’ve been going to thrift stores and garage sales my whole life but really picked it and collecting up as a hobby in 2009. Starting with basics. When I personally thrift, I go to local flea markets, thrift stores, garage sales, church sales, goodwills, any place near by that re sells used items. It’s cheaper in person than looking online. 100%.

My Main Rules:

Never pay full price. This stuff is USED and older for that matter. I don’t care if people think it’s rare, it’s used. Some things are on their last legs of life. I can’t tell you how many times I bought a vintage item or even clothes and they break, tear ex as soon as u get home, test it out, wear it then it breaks! It happens!) always keep that in mind. I also like to keep E6000 clear glue around just in case it’s something I can fix. (If u also try E6000, make sure to follow instructions on bottle exact and it will hold up forever. I glued heavy glass and it’s still together years later)

Only possibly think of spending a little more if the item is in a box and old stock or if it’s super meaningful to you. BUT if u use my tips, u can find old stock in boxes cheap even or decent priced when thrifting. I only pay little more or seek something out if it’s meaningful to me or extremely sentimental. (Old favorite toy or I got rid of and want back, something I always wanted and can now cause I’m 30! Ex….) 😂 otherwise, I don’t buy if the price isn’t right.

If you aren’t sure if it’s actually vintage, look for the year on the item, tag ex, or if u have a phone, look it up, look up the brand! Some super old stuff don’t have years on them too so keep that in mind, helps to use google.

I feel like if u go thrifting enough, u will find whatever you are looking for eventually so if the price isn’t right, don’t buy! You will probably see it again eventually and if you also do this as a hobby, u have a lifetime to come upon it again. lol

Go when u can afford it or really want to. I use to go WEEKLY, I would find things every week cause they constantly have different stuff. lol but now I have bills now and things are expensive, so it’s just not realistic for me anymore. I go once or maybe twice a month if I’m lucky. BUT I will admit, u will find a lot of items if u go weekly and can get first dibs but it can get pricey as it all adds up of course.

Leave no stones unturned. So when I go to the thrifting, I look EVERYWHERE. I spend HOURS. lol Sometimes u find the best stuff in the weirdest spots! I found a ADULT Powerpuff girls sweater from 2000 in the kids xl section! I’ve found vintage bedding on random clothing wracks. Sometimes things get moved, you will be surprised on what u will find.

So this use to be one of my rules when I had a better phone plan lol but if I feel like I’m questioning a price on an item, I use to look it up on eBay or google. (If you use eBay, their is settings they show what items actually sell for and not just what they r listed as. THIS HELPS. Sometimes people put insane prices but they definitely aren’t selling for that much! Helps to see the actual value if u need to.)

If u go to garage sales or flea markets, don’t be scared to ask for prices or make offers. If u like it, ask! If the price isn’t right, just say thanks and go on ur merry way. Key is always be nice and respectful if they don’t budge on price. You’ll probably see it again. lol. Least u asked! I use to be too shy to ask and I’d regret it! Also I’d go home empty sometimes cause of it. But now, I seem to really connect with people and try to be nice, talk to them like a potential friend! Sometimes the interaction makes my day and I can get a laugh out of some people. Even sometimes being nice and funny person can go a long way with others. One time I went to a small town and it was the last day of garage sale weekend and people just seemed so nice and liked me, they gave me stuff for free it kept happening throughout the day! lol Sometimes people won’t budge on prices though and that’s fine. And other times, people just want stock or items gone! lol They want money, they don’t wanna take the junk back inside their home and I get it! lol for example, one place gave me stuff for free cause she was trying to get rid of kids toys, her kids had so much she gave me stuff for free, some powerpuff girl plushies for 25 cents! One time, I had a guy tell me a doll I was looking at was worth $200. (Which He was right they sold for that much in box, I looked it up when I got home) he said was worth $200 but he was asking $20 cause he wanted it sold. He had no attachment and needed extra cash as he kept buying to resell but hasn’t sold much. I told him she’s cute but idk. I kept looking at his other items. Finally when I walked away, he shouted $10! I bought her up! lol One day, I bought a giant box of McDonald’s toys, (second photo from top right above the TMNT bag) for $2 for the entire Box!! Completely full! Was a family at the flea market that was just having a garage sale so to speak, they were moving so they didn’t want anything! lol Also an example too of the opposite scenario, an older lady was selling all spice girls dolls in box for $80 dollars all together (at the time the whole lot was cheaper on eBay, they were $45 for the lot and this stuff wasn’t popular so it just wasn’t selling at the time.) I asked price of baby spice alone and she wouldn’t split the band. I said ok thanks and went on my merry way! I later in life got 3 of the girls for $10 to $6 a piece in box. lol

HAVE FUN. This is my hobby. I’ve been doing this as a hobby since 2009! Of course it takes a while to get as much as I have. But I really only recommend thrifting if u REALLY enjoy it and collecting. You really have to enjoy it and to keep going! It’s like a treasure hunt to me! I do it as a collector cause it’s a blast. I‘ve met such interesting people, I’ve seen such cool things even if I didn’t bring it home and couldn’t afford the item. It’s fun! It’s so exciting to find something on a shelf u haven’t seen in years. Also fun to find things u forgot existed or just speak to u personally! I literally buy anything that just feels like it belongs with me anymore. I fall in love with the moment I look at it. I use to think, oh people will think I’m weird? and I still remember those items I passed up YEARS later and say why did I leave that behind? lol 😂 It’s such a cool hobby. I can tell u what I paid for just about everything! 😂 I remember it all cause I really do love it and I LOVE deals.

Also, all the pictures above are mine and things I thrifted, do not steal! If u have any questions about how much I paid for some of these items, or have any questions in general, don’t be afraid to ask. If u wanna know tips about thrifting on toys, clothes, ex, please ask! I will try to help to the best of my knowledge. The 2nd photo, 6th, 7th, 9th and 10th photo are perfect examples cause it’s everything I got at ONE flea market or thrift store, just one stop. Sometimes I find full collections! Each photo are from different days but are definitely good examples. Also if I forget anything I feel is super important to add, I’ll probably post another part 2 or something. ❤️ hope this helps someone.

I think it it would be cool, if any followers decided to thrift or if you use any of my tips and find some cool stuff, to make a post and tag me! Show me ur cool finds, what tips helped the you the best if u feel like adding that.

Let’s Talk Wrestling Merch:

Now, I know the reason why you are reading my blog and connecting with other fans . You love professional wrestling! For this article, I’m going to be talking about wrestling merchandise and showing off a few of my favorite merch items and different merch items from over the years.

Wrestling merchandise can come into different forms. It’s all about fans buying items such as shirts , posters, toys, etc to show off their support for their favorite wrestlers. This became popular during the 1980s after the Rock & Wrestling Connection. Fans began buying merchandise to dress and support their favorite wrestlers such as Macho Man Randy Savage and Rowdy Roddy Piper. However, during this time period , it was the most popular wrestler in the WWF, Hulk Hogan, who had the highest selling merchandise in the company. Anything to do with the powerhouse wrestling promotion could be even found in grocery stores, with WWF branded ice cream bars. Vince McMahon’s vision for this was to appeal to children and get them to watch the programming by placing their favorite wrestler’s picture on a frozen treat. WWF birthday party sets were even available at the time as well.

During the 1990s and into the Monday Night Wars between WWF and WCW, merchandise sales were even higher. With the rise of the nWo , fans kept buying their shirts and other items such as figures of the popular group. During the Attitude Era for the WWF, stars such as Stone Cold Steve Austin , DX, and The Rock were the top merchandise sellers for the company. During the 2000s, WWE’s top selling merchandise was of their biggest names such as John Cena and Randy Orton , with Cena being the top seller.

With the popularity of WWE Shop and rival wrestling merch shop, Shop AEW, fans have been trying to find things to support their favorites. WWE’s top merchandise sellers are Cody Rhodes , LA Knight , Roman Reigns , Rhea Ripley , Bianca Belair , Liv Morgan , Seth Freakin Rollins, etc. With AEW, their top merchandise sellers include Sting, MJF, Swerve Strickland, Will Ospreay , Mercedes Monè, Timeless Toni Storm, etc. Sales of merch can change weekly or yearly.

Fans can also go to bookstores or websites to find books that their favorite wrestlers have written or any book about wrestling. I’ve bought two AEW shirts from Hot Topic , you can find wrestling merch there sometimes.

Before the rise of those two merchandise websites , fans had to find merchandise stands at shows and or in catalogs. They could also go to different stores to find figures of their favorite wrestlers.

The rise of sites such as Pro Wrestling Tees and Ringside Collectibles have helped fans as well. These sites have advertised different items to appeal to fans of any promotion or wrestling in general.

My Favorite Wrestling Merch Items:

I have a few favorite items in my personal collection that I want to show off. I have a vintage Shawn Michaels shirt that I found at a thrift store. I found it to be from 1997 , which was the year that I was born. I also have a nWo shirt which I found online and yes, it’s my favorite shirt. I also love my customized Drew McIntyre necklace , figure , and book. I also have a few vintage figures that were passed down to me by my dad.

My Final Thoughts:

Being an Amateur Wrestling Historian , I felt like talking about merch and how far it has came. I also liked talking about how far buying merch has evolved over the years. I’m curious , what was your first piece of wrestling merch and what is your newest one? What is your favorite merch? Let me know!

Love You All,

-Kay

hey friend ☀️🌱 i wanted to ask what you collect (stamps, figurines, ...?) and what general tips you would have for someone who wants to get into collecting. i used to collect post cards, deco tapes and stickers as a child, but it was all very unorganized. one day i simply stopped, and it was pretty chaotic at that point. now, stamps seem like something beautiful to get into, but idk where to start. what's something valuable you think a beginner should know about collecting (stamps or in general)?

hello! thank you so much for the sweet question! I collect yugioh cards too, stickers, vintage toys (like mlp, care bears, etc!) and a specific style of 80s sweater like this! ooh! some of my collections are unorganised like that...with stickers especially it's hard to keep them tidy, buying a sticker book (the style with pages where you can place + remove stickers freely) helped a lot with single stickers, that way I can keep them all together without taking up space!

hmm! in stamp collecting there's a lot of people who are super serious about it or think there's strict rules, I pretty much just ignore it! I think what's most important is collecting stamps you find cute or fun rather than what you think might be valuable! I started out by buying a stamp stock book online (there's lots secondhand on ebay) and saving the stamps I liked that I received on mail! some secondhand book stores will carry stamps too, I've gotten some fun ones from there!

as for collecting in general, I think what's most important to remember when it's something vintage or secondhand or a little hard to find, that it's about the hunt! I could easily buy a care bear online, but the thrill of finding the one I've wanted for so long in person for a good price is much more fun! I hope that makes sense!

[the-bjd-community-confess]

sometimes, when i let myself just sort of daydream about cool things i could be doing, some of my “if you love your job you never work a day in your life” (ik its bs bc i love my current job too. but you get the vibe) daydreams is owning a doll store specializing in bjds & art dolls & materials for them with a whole show room, or just being a bjd dealer without a brick and mortar. i’m the type of person who enjoys helping people find and get things, and the times i worked in fields like that (procurement & also regular retail jobs) i really enjoyed it. it’s influenced what my current career path is too. I miss the unique vibe our family tailor shop had brought to our two when i was growing up, and the old fabric & craft store too. I miss the strange antique & vintage store that my grandma would take us too, with the big room that was just full of dolls of all kinds (well, mainly porcelain, bisque & barbies) as well as doll clothes and doll houses. I want to be that for the modern era, for the modern kid and their parent to wander in and look at dolls and related products. Maybe my thing would be BJDs and American Girl Dolls, and i’d help people place orders in person. I’d obviously have a website, but there’s something quaint about during christmas time a parent comes in and buys some american girl dresses. or one of the local college kids in the anime club discovers that this weird shop in their boring college town has BJDs, and they come and look a lot because they’ve always seen them online but never in person. also, it’d be great to be able to see so many dolls and clothes….. but i don’t have to keep them >:) I get to look and maybe display some (those would probably be my own collection) but they’d eventually leave me to their forever home. Muahahaha. That’s like my perfect doll collection ideal.

i dunno, i just think it’d be neat. i’m aware there’s a lot that goes into business, my family are primarily business owners (tailor shop for example, contractors, the like). truly the online only dealer presence would be far better business wise with real estate, loans, and the economy the way it is in my state, so i’d only have to worry about storage.

It’s also such a niche thing that if i ever did it, there aren’t a lot of people to ask about how they started, their pros/cons, etc. I’d love to hear more from people who are dealers of niche hobby things (gundams, figures, toy trains, etc even). anyways, what’s your fun hobby daydream?
