I Thrifted a £1 Chip Beanie Buddy!

Friday, January 31st, 2025

Hi everyone! I just LOVE thrifting Beanies! This time, I managed to find a Chip Beanie Buddy for only £1!

She was untagged, but I just had to bring her home with me. I mean, who wouldn’t?

She wasn’t exactly unclean as such, but I gave her a wash and a brush she’s come up great! And still so lovely and soft!

Just look at that adorable face!

While she may not be BRAND new, for £1 I think she was a bargain!

The wonderful caramel brown and black colouring on her back also washed up lovely, as did her long tail. Plus she smells all lovely and clean now!

I didn’t actually have the Buddy version of Chip, so it was lovely to find her. She is just purrfect! And she looks like she’s glad to have a new home!

I just love thrifting new Beanies. It’s always a surprise what you will find! This time I found a Chip Beanie Buddy, but who knows what I’ll find next!

I found Chip at the Emmaus Charity Superstore in Sheffield, which is possibly the best charity shop I’ve visited (they have goats!). They are also not massively overpriced like a lot of the more popular charity shops have sadly become.

I found a few McDonalds Teenie Beanie Boos there too for 25p each, but to be honest, I already had them so I left them behind.

Do you love thrifting Beanies? What was the last Beanie you thrifted? Leave a comment below!

Happy Humphrey Day!

Wednesday, January 9th, 2019


We’re halfway through the week now, so to cheer you all up, here’s Humphrey!

This is the Beanie Buddy version of Humphrey (as there’s no way I’d be able to afford the Beanie Baby, being one of the rarest in the world!).

He was one of the original nine Beanie Buddies released on 30th September 1998. The other eight original Beanie Buddies are Beak, Jake, Royal Blue Peanut, Quackers, Rover, Stretch, Teddy (cranberry colour) and Twigs!

I think he’s adorable and I’ve had him for just over 20 years now! (That makes me feel old…)

Do you have any Beanie Buddies do you have in your collection?
