18 People Who Went to a Flea Market and Hit the Absolute Jackpot

For a long time, thrift stores and flea markets have become exceptional places to look for unique and special things without spending so much money. That’s why many enthusiasts, with their eagle eyes, can find even haute couture garments in these places in completely impeccable condition.

Bright Side didn’t want to miss the opportunity to admire some of the best thrift store findings, so we wrote a new compilation. Have a look!

1. “Found Vintage Louis Vuitton and (maybe?) Vintage Gucci at a rummage sale! Including a bag of clothes, total $7!”

• Both are legit. You should fill the lv with some little pillows or some clothing for a couple of days to get it back in shape. Great finds! © PastryCop / Reddit
