What I thrifted in August 2021

I neglected to make Thrift W Me posts for all the new inventory I sourced this month. I started a new job so on Friday I treated myself to shopping for books. I'm really hoping this first week of September I don't have too many hours. I am having a lot of trouble working a traditional job due to my mental illness and chronic illness.

Having this job will help pay my bills, keeping me secure, and I can have a little more wiggle room for my business. I need to buy bins and bookshelves for all my inventory.

Here is a haul I did for my youtube channel. I know it's terrible but it's the best I can do right now.

I also got some bins this month for storage and it's such a great feeling knowing the books are safe.

Here are some books I got for free:

These books below I surprisngly got from the Courthouse! I also feel like it's a good sign that someone left The Illusionist and Skyrim at the Free Library, a sign to add more DVD's and video games!
