Long time lurker but first-time poster, so please be nice :)
Just down the road is Llandegai industrial estate, home to Bangor's biggest car boot sale. I think it's probably Bangor's ONLY car boot sale, but still it's technically true. Anyhoo, it contains a panoply of second-hand tat, furniture, collectables and truly disturbing items in a building with the approximate size (and décor) of an aircraft hangar. I go along with the pretence of buying sensible things like cheap books and locally grown vegetables, or to entertain like-minded visitors on a rainy day, but really I hunt the (not-so-)elusive thrift-horror-beast.

Welcome, all! This is my first post, and one of my favorite hobbies is going to thrift stores :) I've been to this Salvation Army a few times, but this is the first time I've visited with a camera in tow. (The pictures are arranged in the order in which I took them in the store; and I warn ahead of time for some mildly off-color jokes).
( Varied horrors, and one epic WIN! )
I hope to have lots of fun in this community; and to share lots more ridiculous photos in the future :)

( Oh GOD they won't stop STARING! )
