Signed Copy of “The Shining”
We are not the only people in the world who think that The Shining was one of the most horrific books ever written. It became a blockbuster film under the direction of Stanley Kubrick. Now considered a horror masterpiece, the Stephen King novel has since sold more than a million copies. You can buy a copy at any bookstore, but we doubt that it will come with the author’s signature. A thrift store customer hit the jackpot by purchasing one such book for only $1.99. Upon opening the front cover, she was surprised to find a personal note from him that dated back to 6/29/81. It is worth $600!
Unopened Mint Tamagotchi
If you are not familiar with the Tamagotchi, you must be very young. It is a handheld digital pet created by Japanese artists called Aki Maita and Akihiro Yokoi. The Bandai Tamagotchi came out in the mid-‘90s and took the world by storm. You would be a true ‘90s kid if you had one of these! They now go for $75 to $100. A thrift store customer was lucky enough to find an unopened one in mint condition. When it came out, it cost about $17.99 apiece. He bought it for a lower price but can now resell it for more.
