I was in a Goodwill when an insane person took over the stores PA system and started saying crazy shit. The weirdest thing was that I didn't see a single person reacting at all, it kept going on and on but everyone in the store was acting like it was totally normal. I couldn't handle it and had to get out of there because I was laughing too much and feeling creeped out at the same time.

Off-brand "magic wand" sex toy
Breville toaster oven, in perfect shape, for $25. Thatβs around $300 off.
Rang up at about $17 due to a sale.
Breville is such a good brand. Not very well known in the USA since they're an Australian brand. Kinda expensive, but very high quality.
My best haul was a Janome sewing machine which retailed around $1800 for $30. I think someone had priced it for a friend or themselves because it was on a bottom shelf behind other items despite being on the shelf for under an hour. I went back 2 days later and got the extension table for another $8.

It's great place to source wood if you like woodworking.
As old people die, their furniture ends up there. Young people seem to prefer particle board style furniture.
Happy me prefers real wood.
Nobody prefers particle board. Particle board is hot garbage.
Prefer or can only afford great idea i never thought of non the less
I always wonder why the heirs don't keep the furniture
I always expect it's they don't have the room. Grandma did a reverse mortgage. So you don't get the house can't pay for storage fees. Might as well get rid of it.
Maybe there aren't any heirs. Or they're across the country, or it doesn't go with their decor. Etc.

As a young(-ish) person myself, I can assure you that it's not that we prefer particle board, but rather that that's the majority of what's affordable out there. As I'm sure you're probably aware, unless you go thrifting like you just said, real wood stuff in general, let alone furniture, is usually very expensive.
