Hey there, friends! I’ve recently dived into the world of thrift stores, and let me tell you, they’re absolutely magical!

So there I was, at a local thrift store here in Yorkton. Not looking for anything in particular, just wandering through the aisles, hoping to find a hidden gem or two. Among an exciting collection of records, DVDs, and books, something truly special caught my eye: a Corner Gas coffee mug!

For anyone who knows me, you’ll get why this find had me so excited. Corner Gas was a staple in my childhood TV lineup, watched every week alongside my mom. We still say to each other, “I just… don’t know” from the closing credit song! We even took a fun trip to Rouleau once just to see the famous gas station set. It might have been closed off, but it didn’t take away from how cool it was.

That’s the beauty of thrift stores. Finding those little items that bring back memories and maybe will create some new ones too. And who doesn’t love giving a pre-loved item a brand new home? It’s like a treasure hunt with the bonus of being good for the planet.

If you haven’t dipped your toes into thrift shopping yet, you’re in for a treat. You never know what piece of nostalgia or new favourite you might stumble upon. Here’s to making more discoveries and cherishing those unexpected finds. Happy hunting!
