FiM Hits the Salvation Army

[Al-1701]

I work at the Salvation (for only a week more) and my job is putting the little tags on the clothing.  This week one of the racks had a pair of little girl's panties with Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie on the front.  No pics.

Anyone else seen FiM stuff at thrift stores?

EDIT:  And ironically this post rids me of my ouchy roids.

I have found a lot of McD FiMs and I found an AJ with bangs not too long ago.

I found Snowcatcher today!

My first G4 pony was a Cupcake that I found at Goodwill. I've also found regular brushable Pinkie Pie, TRU exclusive large Pinkie Pie plush, a Fashion Style Fluttershy, tons of McDonald's ponies & an activity book with stickers. There's more things too but they had problems so I didn't buy them.

Yeah last year around this time I found a Rarity and the Rainbow Dash that lights up.

I bought a 2011 Fashion Style Celestia in a thrift store (no accessories, just the pony), and I see McDonald's FiM ponies all the time.

Unbelievable...toys become more and more disposable junk these days....I think it is sad...
You know from G1 they where a girls precious friend for over some years until the grow out of them. But with the G4's i looks like the came of the box and fumbled around a little and then trow away...i do not want to know how many really end up in the trash bins!!!

Thrift shops are where I find most of my G4s nowadays.  I've found buckets of FiM McPonies, but also an Applejack with bangs (but no symbol ), Lulu Luck with her tail still done up in plastic and the plastic round her foreleg, light-up Rarity, and a Flitterheart with some very odd colouration issues.  None of them looked particularly played with, which is rather sad.

I don't really get the disposability of toys these days.  It seems vaguely troubling that we live in a society that throws away (or blithely repurposes, in the case of thrift shops) so many things so easily... or maybe I've just watched The Story of Stuff with my son once too often.

I found Fluttershy at a Value Village last year...

[Koudoawaia]

One time at Good Will I found FiM So Soft Newborn Sweetie Belle

[hathorcat]

I like that ponies turn up in thrift shops - not only does it mean someone has taken the time to not simply throw a pony away but it means a good cause gets money from reselling!

I cant say I have spotted any FiM in charity shops over here yet - I am still enjoying finding G3s

Lots of G4 McDonalds Ponies.  I've passed up RD, Rarity and Fluttershy recently.

The other G4 I found was the basic size brushable Applejack with her little saddle.  That's it so far.
