Best Birthday EVER!! Come see why :D

[Rhini]

I ALMOST didn't go to the thrift store after lunch on my Birthday Friday, but I decided to go have a look and it was seriously the best decision ever!! I saw some ponies on the floor and picked them up and put them in my cart, then dug around and saw that patch of hair ... AND IT WAS HER!!

I just stood there going OMGOMGOMGOMG and hyperventilating for like 5 min

Poor girl was utterly filthy

But she cleaned up just BEAUTIFULLY and is definitely near mint in my estimation. She has a few small factory marks, one teeny tiny blue spot, and one symbol has a tiny rub on her NDS, but her hair is silky and uncut and all the dirt just washed away like magic.

I still really can't believe that I got this lucky, and on my birthday no less. It was a wonderful weekend outside this as well, and I am just sososo happy  My entire purchase cost me $1.42, and Mimic cost around 16 cents.

Wow!  That is an amazing find!  And Baby Lucky and Baby Leafy too?!    Amazing!!!!!  How in the world did they all only cost $1.42?  Will you come shopping with me on my birthday in a few months?  Maybe some of your luck will rub off on me! 

BTW, Happy birthday!!!

And lets not forget the other lovely ponies you found too.  What a stroke of pony luck.  Congrats

Wow. Like you said, OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG. Talk about a find. Major congrats and a belated happy birthday!
 
Edit: Is that a princess ribbon on Wind Drifter and a regular MLP ribbon on Cupcake? What an extra bonus. (And the damsel hat of course.) I'd love to see how Princess Sparkle cleans up.

Holy Crap!! What a great story! I think that is the cheapest Mimic in history! And look at all the other wonderful G1's!! I have yet to find G1's in thrift stores around here!! Any ways, Happy Be-lated Birthday and MAJOR congrats!

Oh my...


That is indeed a really awesome birthday present! Mimic's such a beautiful pony. And I agree that she looks almost mint! And her hair looks just so gorgeous... 


You people from the States are so lucky!


I've been to three second hand stores today and haven't found anything.
