Calling all fans of secondhand finds! Do you have thrifted items in your home that are special to you? We would love to check them out!

This month, we invite you to share the previously owned finds in your living space that filled you with glee or contentment when you found them. Anything from lovely to ludicrous is welcome, we just want to hear the story behind it!

Guidelines for Participation



🎸 Post in English, or include an English translation.

🎾 Write your own post, plagiarism and AI generated content will give you 5 years of bad luck.

🔭 Your post must contain personal photos of the items you present.

👗 Although we have no word count, posts over 300 words are more likely to be selected.

🕶 Drop the link to your entry in the comments section of this post to make sure we see you!


Our community posting guide can be found here!




But wait... How do we plan to judge secondhand goods against each other with all the awesomeness that exists out there? It seems like there is no fair way to do that, so instead we've decided to distribute prizes by categories. We will divide the 80 Hive as follows:

😍 The Most Unique Find, 10 Hive

You can find almost anything in a thrift store... This slot goes to the poster who knocks us off our feet with a find that you don't often see.

💰 The Best Bargain, 10 Hive

Is there something in your home that normally costs an arm and a leg, that you got for a fraction of the price? You're in the running for this one!

😱 The Strangest Acquisition, 10 Hive

Do you have one or more secondhand items in your home that act as a conversation piece? This prize goes to the weirdest find!

😎 The Most Entertaining Backstory, 10 Hive

Who doesn't love a good story? This prize goes to an author that has a great story behind the item(s) in their home.

👏 The Biggest Win, 10 Hive

Did you simplify your life by buying items in your home secondhand? Maybe you completed a collection or replaced an item you've been searching high and low for. This one's for you!

💗 The Most Meaningful Backstory, 10 Hive

Sometimes a secondhand find is deeply meaningful, and those can be some of the coolest stories to read. This one goes to someone whose post warms the heart.

Honorable Mentions Pool


The remaining 20 Hive will be split between honorable mentions in the form of HBI, so that way we can reward as many great posts as possible!


We hope that with the diverse range of categories, anyone who likes to shop secondhand will be able to find a way to participate in the contest! Our first community contest will be live for the next month, with a countdown timer viewable on the Peakd frontend.


We can't wait to see your secondhand finds!

yey~ here's my entry to one of the categories in the contest: https://peakd.com/hive-127434/@judetheartiste/the-biggest-win-is-finding-a-cheap-kendo-armour-set-on-a-thrift-shop

also question 😊, do we only get to enter once for each category ? or we are allowed to participate all of it? just wondering

We will only pick one post per author for the categories, however depending on participation we may award HBI to authors that also were selected for a category!

Thanks for joining in on our first contest! 🤗
