    what toys do you see at thriftshops , Garage sales everytime you go?

    Since I've been hitting thrift shops pretty hard these last few months...I've notice some toys that always seem to be there...I know you'll always see common stuff like stuffed animals and boardgames but I'd like you to be more specific , these are things I see every single time I go..It doesn't fail lol..
    1-Beanie babies
    2-Nude barbies
    3-Justin beiber dolls
    4-At least 1 power ranger
    5-New Transformers
    6-Dora dolls
    7-bags of hotwheels
    8-bags of legos
    9-at least a handful of star wars from Episode 1 till now
    10-Amercian girl doll knock offs

    I'm sure I'm forgetting a few , anyone else ?

    I haven't been going lately but I always used to see boxes of knock-off 80's HeMan style figures.

    I remember because I was always compelled to go through them looking for AWA wrestlers

          The over abundance of baby toys is inspiring and makes me want to drive 200 miles a day to find more.
