I usually go in search of old t-shirts and books. I have found some awesome ones of both. I love t-shirts that are really old and soft and have a cool print like an old little league shirt, concert tee, and I really love the old Hanes 50/50 white cotton shirts. They are sooooo soft.
I've found some really great, popular books for like .50 cents. I found a book one time that I had previously ordered online but my order got messed up so it wasn't sent and my money was refunded for a dollar in a thrift store. Pretty cool considering I was going to pay like 10 for it. That happens quite often. I get really disappointed if I am in search of a few good books and can't really find any.
Found some Journey 45s at a thrift store.
Pike Co. has a few that I swing by from time to time. The H.O.P.E. Charity Thrift at Chloe usually has a lot of books. The Opportunity Store in Hazard had some great t-shirts but they were usually in sizes 10-12 and 14-16 so you'd have to be small. Umm, the one with the best prices and best t-shirts closed. An "antique store" with a GREAT selection of books closed as well. Still breaks my heart. And The Helping Hands store on Town Mountain Road usually has some decent stuff.
I got a wine class from a vineyard in Napa Valley for a dime. An old duffle bag with a school's logo on it for a dime. Those things that you can crack an egg in and microwave it in order to get a boiled egg in for a dime once. My grandmother had bought one years ago and paid over 20 bucks for it. Oh, got a Diaper Genie that looked brand new for a friend for a dime also.
I will look around and think about it some more and come up with some better stuff.
