Secondhand shopping in 2020 is a very different beast from previous years. Going to thrift stores, garage sales, and flea markets now means taking the utmost precautions because of the pandemic. With your hazmat suit and mask on and a jumbo supply of hand sanitizer by your side, you’re like an astronaut going on an adventure into Wonderland.

Despite major lockdowns worldwide, the Weird Secondhand Finds That Just Need To Be Shared Facebook group is still going strong. They’ve surpassed 2.1 million members and they’re still posting a steady stream of the bizarre but beautiful secondhand finds, some of them bought online, not just in physical stores. Check out the most peculiar finds below and give your fave ones an upvote, dear Readers.

Are you in the mood for even more thrift store fun but are locked down and stuck at home? Don’t worry—we’ve got plenty of secondhand posts to keep you busy and safe until we sort this pandemic business out. You can scroll through Bored Panda’s earlier posts about the coolest and most bizarre secondhand finds here, here, and here. We know you’ll love ‘em. And before you know it, we’ll all be back to vintage shopping without a worry.

#3 My Grandma Spent Years Collecting Broken Pieces Of Jewelry From Family Members With The Hope Of Creating A Jewelry Christmas Tree.

When she got too frail to make that dream come true, she gave me the box of jewelry. After she passed away, I finally sat down to create her dream. I remember her wearing some of the pieces and playing with some of the others as a kid. My husband thought it was fitting that the back of Grandma Dorothy’s “D” pin was the hardest to remove as she could also be humorously stubborn

Bored Panda reached out to the Facebook page’s team and a representative told us that many local thrift stores have now actually moved to online ordering during the Covid-19 pandemic. “Some even have curbside pickup, so we recommend checking with your favorite stores to see if they’ve done this,” they suggested what we can do in order to stay safe but keep our secondhand shopping habits intact.

Meanwhile, they pointed out that secondhand fans should use social media to keep track of their fave shops and what’s new with them while also avoiding going to shops physically without knowing if you’ll find what you want. “Following your favorite shops Facebook pages is also recommended so you can stay up to date on what they’re doing as well as get quicker notice when they have sales, new items listed, etc. That way you can safely thrift from the comfort of your own home while still supporting your local shops.”

Previously, Bored Panda spoke with the Weird Secondhand Finds team all about how the thrift store and secondhand shopping industry has shifted because of Covid. According to the Facebook page team rep, the number of people buying things this way stayed more or less the same in Autumn, but how things are done have changed quite a lot. There’s been a rise in digital shopping while physical stores are taking more and more safety precautions.

“We’ve noticed that more people seem to be using online venues for their thrifting rather than going to physical locations, which given the current circumstances, we think is great. Thrift stores also seem to be embracing the option of going online just a bit more than they did previously,” they told Bored Panda. “We encourage people to stay safe and use precautions if they do decide to go out, and we do not allow posts that show people not honoring precautions, such as not wearing a mask or with their mask pulled down while out in public.”

Meanwhile, physical stores require customers to have masks on, have erected plexiglass protectors at registers, keep the fitting rooms closed, and have a hard limit on the number of people that can be inside the store at one time.

“Perhaps the biggest change is in the ‘bin’ type stores where they have had to significantly decrease the number of bins in order to allow for social distancing, as well as create a path for customers to follow rather than being able to choose their own path like they could previously. It’s a lot less chaotic than it used to be at the bins,” the Weird Secondhand Finds team member explained.

#10 My Teenage Daughter Was Walking Through A Thrift Store When This Great Curved Mid Century Blue Couch Came In The Door

She sat down on it until the manager walked by to find out how much it was selling for. It was over the amount she had in her pocket so she sat on it until her sister came with the rest of the money. My daughter wanted to surprise me for Mother’s Day! When we went to pick in up the next day, the manager was so moved by my daughter’s gesture that it brought her to tears!

The Facebook group started out as a page for family members and friends to share the goofy things they found online. Eventually, the page grew immensely and the wholesome community began to take form.

It’s not just about fun, though. The Facebook group has brought the discussion about shopping secondhand to the forefront of social media. It’s something that’s positive for your wallet, for your community, and for Planet Earth. Without the stigma attached to it, secondhand shopping is a great way to spend your time. Just remember to put your hazmat suit on. Or shop online!

Also im about an hr and a half from where my mum lived her whole life. My birthday was just 3 days ago and i definitely feel this was her saying happy birthday and giving me the gift of something she made. I feel so lucky and am pinching myself still.

The ottoman is from Target from a few years ago. Had some requests for more pics of the room so I added some to this post. I wanted to share with you my crazy find at a Goodwill store in Sterling, VA a few years ago. It’s a purple suede-like chair that is the length of a couch. It is sitting in my living room as it won’t fit through any of our hallways. A great conversation piece in our home.

#62 Can You Believe Someone Was Giving This Away For Free On Marketplace? It’s Going In My Science Classroom If It Will Fit

Update: It did not fit through the door… we had to remove the center post of the double doors and brought it into our library. It would not fit through our classroom doors. That’s ok though, it is now in a place where everyone can use/reference it. The key and information on the arm is written in German and it still has the USSR on it, so it is definitely rather old. I added some photos of us getting it in the building and some of the damaged parts. Update 2: Came out to my truck at lunch and found the note I attached as the last image

So here it is up for grabs…….a ceramic lighted tree, but only half. It’s a hanging tree, this is the first that I’ve ever seen. I guess it’s like the albino of the pack. Pick a number between 1-800 and I’ll pick the person that’s the closest to my number. I’ll post the luckily person on Friday 11/20 around 9 pm est. Good luck all, and may the odds be ever in your favor.

#73 When I Saw This 6 Piece Set Of Plates, I Saw My Grandmother, And Cried A Little

Stomach cancer rendered her allergic to a whole host of foods, but she said that was her price to pay to beat cancer. Anyway, I swear she was a wizard because as a child I had never seen a single person put ham in scrambled eggs!! I always craved her magic breakfasts. She would use real eggs for me, and egg beaters for herself. She had these same plates. I can remember the sound of the plates being placed on the counter, the way her spatula scraped the plate when laying down the magic eggs. I remember the fabric of her robe with the satin trim, the smell of her perfume, her perfectly placed hair, and the way the sun came in through the windows while she cooked. We would sit together and have our breakfast with big smiles on our faces. For some reason, I never remember her using these plates for dinner, those were white with a blue Victorian scene along the trim. She passed in 2006, but I know she comes around everytime I get a whiff of her perfume. For $7 I snagged the set. I may just make magic eggs this week, and possibly cry again.

#74 My Grandmother Passed Away Years Ago And I Was The Only Grandchild Who Helped Clean Out Her Home

I had just turned 16 and didn’t have my own place for furniture or large pieces, so I chose this ring. It sure doesn’t look like much now, but my Great Grandfather gifted this to my Grandmother on the day of her high school graduation in 1950. She earned a regence scholarship to go to college, but turned it down to get married and have a family. At 36, I still wear it almost daily as it reminds me of the amazing, stubborn, loving woman I got the pleasure of calling Grandma. I took it to a jeweler who told me it is cherry quartz and is so worn it has little value (don’t care, I won’t ever get rid of it).

#85 My All-Time Favorite Secondhand Find!

My all-time favorite secondhand find! I am a HUGE Disney Nerd and collect anything vintage Disney, but my favorite is vintage Lady and the Tramp memorabilia. This Lady and the Tramp skirt is from 1955 and has been a holy grail I have wanted for years, but convinced myself I would never personally own one as they usually go for $600 to upwards of $1000, depending on condition. When I happened upon a full, uncut set of pristine panels at a flea market, I absolutely freaked out. And then I about fainted when I saw the price tag- $20!!!!! I have never bought something so quickly in my life!!!!! I am convinced this skirt and I were just destined to find each other. My mom is a seamstress (and an amazing one at that ) and she helped me assemble it into the gorgeous, whirling, 16 panel circle skirt it was always meant to be! I treasure my skirt so much, but I definitely also wear it and enjoy it. I feel like after sitting unfinished for 65 years, it deserves to be loved and worn where other people can see it and enjoy it too! These pictures were taken last Christmas at Disney World. We are moving to Florida in a couple days, and I hope next Spring I get to fulfill my dream of wearing this little beauty to Dapper Day at the Magic Kingdom!!!

#122 Tw: Fertility Struggles

My husband and I had a hard time getting pregnant. I have quite a few chronic illnesses and was told that it would be difficult to get pregnant. After a few years and a surgery that would have the added effect of increased fertility, we had decided that we were going to stop trying and save our money to adopt. I was set to see a specialist regarding a health concern out of state, but found out 2 weeks before that we were expecting our miracle baby. Since teenagehood, I wanted a nursery for my baby with the theme “Oh, The Places You Go!” by Dr. Seuss. I saw a photo of some delicate hot air balloons. I set out on a journey to find tatted doilies, and boy, was it tough! I lucked out at one antique store in Meridian, ID, who had boxes in storage and was considering donating them because they were not selling. The clouds are innards of some old pillows, the frames for the clouds are old lamp shades, and the baskets are handmade from jute that I stole from my mom. ETA: she is 18 months old, now

#140 This Beautiful Piece, Showcases An Actual Picture Of My Mom And Her Prom Date (In The 70s). My Grandma Sent The Picture From Ontario To Bc To Have This Made. Here’s The Crazy Part Of The Story. This Picture Has Been Hanging Above My Mothers Couch My Entire Life. One Day I Was Shopping At A Local Thrift Store When Something Instantly Caught My Eye And Stopped Me Dead In My Tracks! Yes It Was This Exact Picture!

I bought it for $10 and brought it home and then immediately called my mother to ream her out. I started with, “I can’t believe you got rid of that” and “why wouldn’t you have asked? Of course I wanted it” but she had no idea what I was talking about and assured me her beloved picture was still in its rightful place. A short drive to her house confirmed that it was, indeed, undisturbed. As it turns out, the artist liked how it looked so much that he made several copies and sold them, never anticipating a second one would ever end up in the same small town across the country. Let alone that the daughter of the original model would find one. Now we both get to enjoy this cherished piece of art.
