the data that I want to get is a BLOB that is named [BLOB - 205B]

inside the BLOB file is an array like this:

a:7:{s:2:"id";s:1:"1";s:5:"label";s:8:"For Sale";s:6:"amount";s:4:"0.00";s:4:"days";s:1:"7";s:6:"images";s:1:"0";s:10:"categories";a:2:{s:3:"all";i:0;s:10:"categories";a:1:{i:0;i:30;}}s:10:"extra_data";N;}

I don’t understand a thing on this code.

I want to display it on the frontend of my html using PHP

That data is in PHP Serialized format you can decode it using unserialize

Example

$data = 'a:7:{s:2:"id";s:1:"1";s:5:"label";s:8:"For Sale";s:6:"amount";s:4:"0.00";s:4:"days";s:1:"7";s:6:"images";s:1:"0";s:10:"categories";a:2:{s:3:"all";i:0;s:10:"categories";a:1:{i:0;i:30;}}s:10:"extra_data";N;}';
$data = unserialize($data);

echo "<pre>" ;
foreach ( $data as $key => $value ) {
    if ($key == 'categories') {
        echo $key, " = ", $value['categories']['0'], PHP_EOL;
    } else {
        echo $key, " = ", $value , PHP_EOL;
    }
}

Output

id = 1
label = For Sale
amount = 0.00
days = 7
images = 0
categories = 30
extra_data =
