Thriftstore Score: Lite Brite

At the Value Village the other day I spotted one of my fav. toys from childhood: the Litebrite. Of course buying toys at the thriftstore, especially those hidden in a box and taped up, is always a gamble. I shook the box. It sounded like there were pieces inside. But who knew what was missing? Still, for about a dollar, it was worth the gamble. Turns out all the pieces were there and the Lite Brite was in pristine condition. Even the paper "maps" were either unused or gently used.

We've been making "Lited" pictures ever since.
