Hi everyone! I just wanted to share my latest charity shop haul!
I was scouring through a charity shop that I visited recently, and spotted a basket with a few Beanie Babies on one of the shelves.
First I picked up Bongo, but as it was the common “tan tail” version that I already own, I put him back. Then, I spotted another Bongo, so I turned him over and discovered he was the “brown tail” variant.
Sure, he isn’t in 100% mint condition, needs a small amount of spot-cleaning and unfortunately is missing a hang tag, but for £2.50 I couldn’t pass him up!
Here is a view of the back of him…
Isn’t he awesome?! But that’s not all…
I turned him over to get a better look at his tush tag, and discovered that he in fact has a 2nd Generation tush tag!
Sadly, it’s not in great shape and is heavily faded, but still a pretty cool find for a charity shop!
I also picked up a couple of other common Beanie Babies, Sherwood (tagged) and Almond (untagged).
I never usually find anything apart from common Beanie Babies in charity shops, so finding a “brown tail”, 2nd generation tush tag Bongo, albeit not in the best condition, was pretty cool!
Have you had any lucky thrifting finds? What were they? Leave a comment below!
