15+ Masters of Thrifting Who Got Themselves Real Treasure for Free
Experienced thrift shoppers know how to get themselves a cool item for a very cheap price, and some of them are so talented and lucky that they manage to get real gems for absolutely nothing. A leather chair, a fancy photo camera, a wedding dress, and even a full set of vintage furniture — these are just a few amazing items the heroes of our article purchased without spending a single cent.
We at Bright Side felt a strong desire to go to a thrift store or garage sale after we saw these 17 treasures people got for free, and we wonder if you’ll feel the same way.
1. “Was blessed with this beautiful leather captain’s chair for free via a freecycling website.”
2. “Got this beautiful old B. Shoninger piano for free! Hope to restore it someday.”
3. “Got this weird-ish, yellow dress for free after buying a few books at a garage sale, fits me perfectly.”

9. “Scored this whole set (coffee table and lamp in the background included) for free! For sure my best score ever!”
10. “I got this Canon SX 70 HS Powershot for free from someone who didn’t want it anymore. It came with the battery charger and is about $600+ in retail.”
11. “Super sturdy oak dining table found for free on Facebook Market! Probably my favorite find to date.”
12. “Got this leather couch yesterday for the low, low price of free!”

I recently sold all of my things on some second hand store, It's crazy how much money you can make selling things you don't need anymore
Great to see these people are happy with their new purchases, usually I can find something in these posts that I like but this time I must say I don't think theres something that I would like to have 😅
#13...not vintage. Reproduction garbage.
