Flea Market Fortunes: Wildly Unexpected Thrift Finds That Struck G

1. Extraterrestrial Lava Lamp

Available at: Thrift Store Worth: $7.99* A thrift shop find that a Redditor declared to be "in love" with was shared. We can't argue against the coolness of this $7.99 alien lamp, which has the appearance of an alien imprisoned in a luminous jar. Some sellers of the "Xemu Xeno" lamp on eBay claim that it is designed to resemble a "preserved alien embryo."

In keeping with the lamp's green hue, the Xemu Xeno also arrives with a small green backpack.

2. Mannequin Heads

Located at: Goodwill Worth: $49.99* It's unknown why these mannequin heads cost so much money. A fresh take on the classic garden gnome was provided by one secondhand store. Consider these mannequin heads, which have extraordinarily long necks and particularly determined looks, if you're looking for something scarier.

Support for the Knee? @kcanevari or Pinterest We might understand if these were only heads, but their extremely long necks and lack of bodies make them much more unsettling. Even so, they would be fun Halloween décor for anyone who wants to spook their neighbors. If you're willing to pay $50 per person, that is. After all, the thrift store's "Seasonal" area is where the mannequin heads are located.
