Bear in mind how all of us went completely nuts for Boo Buckets after which new Nugget buddies in late 2023? Nicely I used up all my McDonalds factors on the Kerwin Frost meals as a result of I used to be caught within the hype myself after which ended up getting Don Bernice for 3 of our 4 nuggets. Hype stopped there, as a result of the meals in Canada price $18 after tax. With out my surplus of Monopoly factors I used to be out. So far as I’m involved Uptown Moe was the perfect one in any case, and my oldest acquired him.
Think about my shock when I discovered a 4 piece nugget bagged up at Worth Village, for $3.99!? (I’m not really that stunned, chasing Glad Meal premiums is a waste of time as a result of I’ve seen each single one at thrift inside 3 months)
Brrrick is fairly RAD however this child Nugget may be my favorite. I don’t know Kerwin Frost and even after some googling I’m nonetheless not solely certain what he does however I do love that we acquired new nuggets. There’s even a gold nugget on our native market for the low low value of ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLARS.
In fact, on the thrift retailer you gotta get some bizarre thrifting in. What is that this bootleg white Darf Fader. I want this was in a bag with one thing else cool so I had a cause to have patrons regret later, however no such luck on this journey. Apart from that, I didn’t develop up with Star Trek so this holds no nostalgia for me, I simply thought my youngsters would discover it humorous, so I acquired a photograph, which is free.
Right here’s the alternative of patrons regret. Two thrift journeys in the past, I discovered a cool horror novel with a black cowl with an embossed silhouette of a dude in a flannel shirt. I left it behind for some cause. I went again the following day and it was gone. There’s another person who collects horror novels as a result of they by no means final, hopefully they’ve a storage sale ultimately. Not prepared to take that likelihood once more I put the gorilla grip on this reverse model of the identical thought, embossed white on white. I hope it’s a snow storm novel, as we’re in the course of one right here.
Then I noticed a well-known face. I believed it was a determine at first however after I grabbed it, I spotted it was the bike horn from McDonalds Actual Ghostbusters promotion within the very early 90s. The very best half is I really had this on my inexperienced banana bike, clearly named the cucumber bike! My brother had the Ecto-1 for his. These aren’t uncommon, I simply haven’t come throughout one nevertheless it’s been one thing I’d hoped to search out. I’m wondering if it should match on my grownup sized bike, might need to strive it this spring.
Ghostbusters stuff is excessive on my record of issues I actually by no means search for however am so psyched to search out. I’ve constructed a pleasant little assortment at thrifts and so on possibly sometime I’ll inform you about my $3.99 Firehouse Play-set. Till then, hold bustin’ these thrift shops my mates, there’s all the time one thing cool to see and to share.
For the eager observer of the occult, sure you probably did the truth is see the Kenner Actual Ghostbusters Ghost Zapper within the background! We have now to speak extra about this, however belief me after I say solely a video can do it justice. It should occur, in due time. Attempting to work out the kinks of how I wish to do video segments.
