    Hi Karen! As a former Goodwill employee in your area, I want to thank you for bringing much good energy and publicity to them. I was an Employment Specialist - we worked with clients with disabilities to help them find and learn competitive jobs that matched their skill sets. Proceeds from the stores help finance these efforts as well as many other job development programs in the organization.

      Is it true only 1/8 of the proceeds go into missions tho?

      @peggypullizzi1272 Год назад +1

      Not quite - as reported in the 2021-2022 annual report for my area goodwill, the stores generated 63.2 million in sales and 62 million was spent on Mission Services. While there are other revenue streams, the stores support the services.

    My mother had the twelve days of Christmas glasses, and when the whole family gathered for Christmas Eve, she would have us sing the song and whichever glass you had, you had to sing that verse. So fun! Thanks for the memory.

    Hi Karen - The glasses from the Twelve Days of Christmas ... they sell much better individually. A complete set doesn't sell for enough to warrant the buy-in price, but I sold them individually about a year ago for $9.95 each. There's always someone looking to buy just one that has been broken from their own set. I actually had all twelve, but still sold them individually to get more of a profit. All twelve sold in the month up to Christmas in 2020 or 2021.

    Move all your additional stuff from dining room to garage and then you can put your desk and shipping items into the dining room.
    That way living room is still a relaxing no clutter area.

    • @lavenderclothesline
      @lavenderclothesline  Год назад +4

      I wouldn’t put breakables ( new mirrors, quartz countertop, glass lights)in the garage because things are always happening in there (removing and replacing the lawn mower, weedwacker, leaf blower etc) spray painting items etc

      Hi Karen. Before you decide on the tub, look at Signature Hardware. We paid less than $3000 and our tub is massive. My 5’11” husband fits very well. I believe it’s also free shipping. A lot of the luxury builders in our area suggested them. Much love ❤️ I have no idea if they service Pennsylvania. We are in TX

    • @brianhenry2385
      @brianhenry2385 Год назад

      Actually I think Content Creators do affect reselling, but in a more balanced way then is often criticized. Crowded Stores are simply the ebb and flow of the business. At best, Content Creators can create competition to source items, but it’s just as likely their videos are creating a renewed interest in Buyers to make an e-commerce purchase for a used item, since not all viewers are Resellers.

    Shipping Station Relocation: you could always shift the Shipping Station Downstairs (at least temporarily) rather then upset your kitchen. Since you pull to pack from downstairs anyway, it wouldn’t upset your process flow as much, though not having a view while you pack might seem a less enjoyable. It’s nice to work in the sunshine when you can. For us in the winter gray of the Pacific Northwest a lack of sun can get a person down….

      I was feeling this way after one year of reselling, so I rented a storage space for my goods. Will build an addition to my house in a few years, a garage with apartment over it. Then my goods can be back home.

  • @peddlinpatricks

    I probably would have bought the 12 days of Christmas and sold separately. Many people may be missing one or two because of breakage. That is if course if the price was right. Congratulations in the house and upcoming nuptials!

  • @breathofhome6315
    @breathofhome6315 Год назад +1

    I would move the bathroom vanity into the living room(put a scarf over the top to cover the sinks) then you could use the dining room for office and shipping(after moving some of the other items to the garage or basement). That's my way of thinking.

Love the pillow covers, they are farmhouse or boho style maybe. Shoes are $12.99 here in Canada too. I did find new with tags/stickers Clark’s ladies shoes yesterday however it was senior day so 25% off.

    Hey Karen, so nice to see you and Roger working and having fun together. I’ve been involved with at least 4 building projects and a dad who was a building contractor. I always tell people to get a prospective on size when you’re at the foundation level, picture a TV in the far corner. If it appears small in your mind, you can see the area is a larger space then you thought. Otherwise the space seems small. Hope that helps. ♥️

  • @kathyaldridge7171
    @kathyaldridge7171 Год назад +1

    Hi Karen, interesting video! The addition is coming along! You mentioned kiddingly(?) about putting steps leading up to the tub. We have steps leading up to our whirlpool tub which was installed when the house was built back in the mid-90s. Big mistake because once one gets to the top step it is a long step down into the tub. Best to straddle a narrow wall rather than risk a tumble into the tub! I am seriously thinking about having those steps removed and the flooring redone. 😊

  • @Talian1
    @Talian1 Год назад

    Hello Karen. So, your foundation wall seems like it is going up to your house right where the floor would start. So, just as your current house shows some of the foundations, so will this wall. This is why you have steps up to the back of your office because the ground is lower than your ground floor, I'm guessing to give room for your basement. I can see that your yard is sloping down and away from your house, which is good. No one wants rain running toward your house.

    KAREN, I went BACK TO GOODWILL for a RLL LAUREN BLAZER… after looking up, as it was $9.99 and selling on eBay for $120-200. Got it home and it had run holes I didn’t notice!! Near the shoulder and on arm, couldn’t see it in navy fabric! I’ve been missing flaws, in fact, I have 2 paper bags full of clothing for resale, with flaws I didn’t see in store! You’re so right, quality /condition is so important. I usually don’t miss these… I do soo PPO end time looking over, in store, but more briefly. I know what you mean!!! If I could tell anyone anything, TAKE THE TIME to inspect BEFORE you buy, especially with the price of clothing at goodwill..going up, they will tag anything

    The Macau vase, is likely from the 70s, but we’re pretty common, so not likely of much value for the size box it would ship in. Macau itself, however has an interesting history and paralleled Hong Kong as a trading port, though is less well known. Portuguese Macau was an interesting place to visit, back before it reverted to China in 1999. Kind of a cross between the gambling casinos on the French Riviera and the open markets in Thailand.
