Calico Critter/Sylvanian Family Find?

So at Savers I saw a familiar looking house and I was gonna pass on it until I saw the price tag. It was the Sylvanian Applewood Cottage \ set I’ve been admiring from afar but the $80 price tag kind of turned me off. But hey, for $4 it was a steal.

Then I looked in the toy section looking for some dolls but found nothing. Buried in the corner was not one, but two filled to the brim Sylvanian Family figures for $5 each bag holy crap.for 4 of these cost $30 so I definitely grabbed both bags.

I had a discount card for 15% off so I got it for nearer $10 for all this.

Theres like 31 of these but I have no idea who these are so lol.

I've never seen those before. They're adorable. My lil girl saw the pic and said she wants all the kitties haha. Wish we had deals like that around here.

At Target in the US there are similar critters and playsets.

Awesome! They are all adorable. Congrats on your awesome find! I need to check out thrift stores more often but I'm generally at work when they are open. ><

What a great deal! That's pretty cool. I haven't been by the thrift store in a long while.
