What is the best "Find" you have purchased at a Thrift Store?

In my area, Consignment Stores are a popular thing. Similar to a Thrift store except that the donater gets a percentage of the sale of each of their items.
I once found a Coach purse for an incredibly cheap price. I looked it over and even though all the registration stuff was in the propper locations I was convinced it was a knock off. The store owner (rather snobbishly) told me that it is real but the pattern has been out of style for years. I snapped it right up. A good purse is a good purse to me.

Wow! Good buy!
I've got pieces of clothing before that fit me better than anything I bought brand new, the last time I went I bought 2 fish tanks to expand my fish collection, and last summer almost everything I bought to redecorate my room was from the thrift stores -- curtains, furniture (except the bed), decorations. It turned out beautifully.. just a few cans of spray paint to tie everything together and I had my dream bedroom.
