I do enjoy your channel. You are such a lady- always well groomed and you speak with such a gentle quiet voice. I could watch your channel all day long. I am from the UK so I love to hear your accent as well. I am learning a lot from you as well. Thank you for taking the time to make your videos.
P.S the stick things are bobbins from the old weaving looms in Yorkshire and Lancashire from back at the start of the industrial revoltion. Nowadays you often find them made into skipping rope handles.
Thanks so much for your encouragement!! 💜
Thanks for doing the videos and all the work that goes into it, really appreciate it!!
I love it when you make things up , you are like a ray of sunshine !
Loved your soothing voice. Thanks for taking us along and showing us what you bought.
Agree some Utube/resellers have a high pitch voice or shout.
The "copper" ship is Copperama Mid Century Kitsch. I just sold a unicorn similar dimensions for over $100 in my booth. Best selling comp on ebay is going for $50. Vintage plastic wall plaques do well right now.
I bought the bag of miniatures. I teach a Sunday School class for young children and they love playing with miniatures . They will be so excited.
Thanks so much for your support!! It will ship first thing in the morning 🥰
Whenever I think I am done with a section of shelf, I pause and then look down and deep. Lots of things can be hidden there. I also think the brain has a tendency to cluster items together and appear as one. So, if the shelf is particularly full, look away and then look back, or walk forward and then turn and look back. Perspective changes everything.
Those wood items are antique bobbins.
"when something tells you it is quality....it probably isnt".....how true is that!!!
I went to an upscale city’s street fair. Wonderful vendors with lovely creative jewelry, no banners, no signs on their wares. But a woman from a different culture actually put her hand on my back to come into their booth. She kept telling me of their high quality items. Honestly, the ordinary, boring stuff was an insult to my senses after seeing all the beautiful creations on the street. I guess she pulled me in when she saw me smirk at her banners, yes banners as more than one! They read “Highest quality jewelry” “Fine Jewelry”. Etc.
Why tell us it was ‘a woman of another culture’? Isn’t she just a woman also? I am Dutch, so for me your are a woman of another culture. 😹
@@pinadevos as a white American woman, I find that woman from two foreign countries are particularly mean and nasty and unwilling to entertain the fact that customers pay their bills. They frequently lie about products. Before you fight with me I need you two know that I am a retired old lady. Not only have i worked on the northeast coast for over forty years but have entertained and been entertained in the houses of people from over fifty different countries. Add another fifty or so countries from work and church and social functions. Men from other cultures and countries often would not allow me to help with their sections and sell to them. I look into the heart and personalities of people. I am second generation American.
@@andicastro1203 I am not going to fight with you. There is good and bad in every culture I think. Personal experience is always limited and does not allow to discard one culture or the other.
@@andicastro1203 was she a gypsy
Wood items are antique bobbins for lacemaking.
Loved that gravy boat!!!
Loved your comment about items telling you by the Packaging that it’s Quality. Reminds me of the advice I received early on that if the original packaging says: Collectible, it’s likely it’s not.
Always fun going thrifting with you. Not only is it fun but I always learn something new from you. Thank you Karen!!!
The Gourd cup, I believe is a Yerba Mate Tea cup from South America
GA! the tissue holder, sold that very same one :) 100% I grab them almost every time even the latch hook ones!
The wood things are bobbins for spinning yarn. I have tons and spin yarn as well. Nice find. Love watching you thrift.
Ryka is good!!! I buy Ryka through Qvc. Very good shoe
I thought it looked good.
Happy Spring Karen! 💕🐦🎶🌞🏵🌿🐇🦋☘🐝💚
The wooden spools/dowels I think may be bobbins or similar from an old Mill. I purchased some in Ontario Canada in a small rural town that used to have a Knitting Mill! It was in the area of our summer cottage & I liked the history behind it!
I check sections in the Thrift Stores in a similar way to yourself. I call it 'scanning' ~ running my eyes from side to side & from top to bottom shelves in sections. A boyfriend from long ago taught me to 'scan' quickly when driving & I have employed the technique in other areas.
That store looked liked it had been pillaged & plundered by a band of pirates! Har! Har!
Matey! ☠👾 lol!
East Indian Godess perhaps a 'Deity' ??

Love your finds. The onyx jewelry box was my favorite of your hard goods finds. Enjoyed your video. I was at Goodwill today. I always enjoy getting out and finding some good deals.
I think the framed Mushroom Woodland art is reverse ink painting. They ink the design on the glass & back it with gold leaf. Fun haul! You always get nice items, Karen!
National Parks Quarter Program is similar to the State Coins, with the US Mint putting out 5 coins a year relating to and promoting National Parks.
Your stores are huge! Lucky to have that large inventory! I love your down to earth style too.--Scott.
Thanks Scott!
Karen I like the ready hall from the trunk. It' quick and saves you time as well.
I'm from the home of Cannon towels and sheets, and we all worked in the mills one time or another. I saw those wooden things used in the weaving of material.
Thanks so much!!💜
I would have bought those neon Reeboks for sure! Perfect for 70's - 80's wear!!
True!!
Hi Karen! Great day at the GW. Your store has a lot of items. On the isle of the Gingko tree story was a Rabbit plush placed on a shelf with the trivet you put back. If you pick that Rabbit up that would be great for Easter. I found the same one and when you press button the rabbit sings and the frog and chicks in the basket bob up and down singing too. It is super funny and I sold it foe good money.
I think the onyx jewelry box is actually alabaster.
Karen, the gourd with silver adornments is called a Mate’ bowl or vessel. I have one from Argentina. It’s for brewing a special strong herbal tea.
Yes, dear you are right! Mate and Yerba mate, we drink it through a silver “straw”.
Another great video - really feels like I'm thrifting myself! Love the gourd.
Fab video as always. THe dried gourd with silver is a Mate pot, mate being a south american drink - usually comes with a metal straw type thing...
Yes Argentina!!!!!
Uruguay as well
Dallas called and JR wants his green phone back, LOL! I have been binge watching and enjoying the 70's and 80's styles. Their shoulder pads had shoulder pads!
Love this!!💜
Hi Karen! I always enjoy watching your videos! Thanks for taking me along!!!
Our Goodwills, west of Seattle, do not stock aisles by color. The stock more by category Pet, craft, hardware/tools, etc) with household being the greatest number of aisles just randomly stocked, in no sense of order.
That’s a Mate Cup, comes with a silver straw to drink Yerba Mate. South American tea form
I enjoy your videos! I’m a eBay seller too but just by cleaning out my house.
Thanks for sharing and caring!
You crack me up! I love your breakfast! Sometimes you just gotta eat whatever's handy!
Exactly 😂😂👍
It is a technique called paper cutting with a xacto knife.
Glad I found your channel!! i like YOU and originally being from Central PA, I appreciate all the place you are taking us!!
five & dime's or 10 cent store were the dollar stores of yesteryear
I believe those mugs have some sort of value because of the way the bottom was. I’ve sold a couple with the same bottom.
Totally live by that branding idea..... If they've spent the money on branding, it's likely one that will sell!
Madonna is looking for her VOGUE bra cones... 🤣 ...1st thought!!! ... but what the heck are they?
😂
😂😂👍
The dried gourd is for drinking yerba mate. This is a strong tea-like beverage drunk communally in Argentina. A silver straw is used.
Came here to say the same and that the metal used to decorate that gourd is probabably pewter.
That's what I thought.
Thank you!!
When I was a kid we used to do that drawing with Ink and foil...It was a popular craft I think in the 1950 s
The owl canister is adorable.
Love you and Melissa!
Marzipan has almonds and they’re healthy...so there’s that...✌🏻😜
Love you so much! 😂
So does M & M s. I pretend that they are healthy.
YAY for a new karen video !! i needed a bit of motivation right now THANK YOU
Thanks Jillian 💜
Loved the video, can we see the clothing at some point please 💕
As usual Karen absolutely great finds!!!! 🙋♀️😍🌵🥰
Thanks so much Celina!
I guess there are a couple ways to look at those bags of personal hygiene items. 1. Someone spent their hard earned money and their time putting them together, only for Goodwill to make a profit on them (but obviously whoever made them up, never got around to handing them out to the homeless or whoever the originally intended recipients were). 2. I guess if someone is in need of those items and is short on cash, that's a good deal for a bag full. My immediate reaction was #1, but I'm trying to learn to stop and see things from different perspectives these days.
That kitty would have done well in my booth
I want that cat!
G.W. is always a mystery, sometimes a good ending sometimes just scary. A good motto to share items. Everyone is complaining about all the chipped & poor quality they are putting out. Thank you for a great video🎇
Hi Karen, Breakfast of reseller champions, those marzipan balls rolled in cocoa sound so good to me! LOL! I really think that you do such a great job in narratingover that relaxing music in your shopping videos! it's very relaxing. A good old fashioned trunk haul , how expeditious and fun!! Maybe that Owl jar is a cookie jar not a canisterfrom a set. Cheers, Pat
The bag of small animal objects would be a gold mine for Montessori Teachers and Child development Teachers. As a Montessori Teacher...I hunt high and low for small objects. They are great for beginning and ending sounds. Most parents are starting to home school their children and they are surfing RUclips for Montessori Trainings.
Those stick looking things you put in your cart are bobbins for a cotton mill machine . I grew up on a mill village . I never worked in the cotton mill but my entire family did . crafters make all kind of thing with the bobbins.
Used to walk to school a pass by the female ginko tree. We called it "Stinko Ginko"! The leaves are beautiful though. :-)
Once again great haul!💞
You're amazing keep doing you!
As always, really enjoyed your video. Love your nails and ring.
I like these videos best.
I usually watch from my tv and don’t get a chance to comment. I always enjoy your content and you have such a soothing voice. I have to say that I think you’ve been watching too much crazy lamp lady. You’re saying “flip for a profit” a lot. That’s always been her catchphrase. 😂 I think I prefer ”go out and get what’s yours.”
I don’t watch her channel 😂
Absolutely love “go out and get what’s yours”
@@lavenderclothesline Oh. I didn’t realize that. I found your channel after you bumped into Andrew at the flea market last year.
@@lavenderclothesline good for you it becomes so repetitive after a while and I have backed off quite a bit on watching them
The gourd looks like a Yerba Mate cup. I found one recently with metal straws. The one you have looks more high end.
I believe those woods sticks had yarn wound on them in the mills for weaving. the yarn was in a cone shape I think. I live in a mill town and I saw those before but can't completely remember.
The sticks are spindles from a weaving mill. That is one part that the yarn is transferred to.
Oh, the Kleenex! I always find Kleenex in the pockets of ladies’ coats and sweaters 🤢
So.... I have my grandmother’s boat windbreaker from the late 70s-80s with patches from their adventures. It’s priceless! I would NEVER resell it but if I did...$$$$$. When I started wearing it, I put my hand in the pocket and found her tissues. I cried. They are still secure in the pocket. I miss them so much! ❤️
Reminds me of the gourd tea set from Brazil my Dad had
Chipped yes, broken no... Goodwill get on it!!!
Dang, I want that mushroom picture..
They are yarn spools
Love your nails!
No dollar stores back in the day, just five and dimes 🙂
Loved my 88 cents stores in the 70s!
I loved the five and dimes. They had really good stuff. Did you have a Woolworths?
@@carolp8243 Yes and that was my favorite store. We used to sit at the soda counter. Do you remember that?
👏👏👏
Also that first piece you showed us look like south east Asia to me....
Great hull thanks for sharing.
The glasses were probably a set of 8 at one time, that could be why the patterns are not in an even amount.
I think the Nantucket glasses are Cat Studios.
Scored 5 oz of Sterling silver 925...it was the top to a jewlery box....it was so ornate, they didn't see the marking...woo hoooo😊😊3.99 it was the 20 percent st.payricks coupon
I love the 4 glasses you found. I think it might have been 6 in the set. And two of them are missing.
The wooden dowel things go with a spinning wheel (like in Sleeping Beauty).
There is a gourd farm right outside Shippensburg, PA where that gourd thing could’ve come from. They have beautiful things there. You should look it up and pay them a visit!
Another field trip idea for a video perhaps??
Just wanted to tell you, I love my red feathered hat. And you were right in you packing video, I got a really good deal! Thanks Gigi Hall
Im so happy!! Thanks again 💜
I think the wooden things are used to tap maple trees . They would screw the large end into the tree and the sap would drip out the hole. The bucket handle would fit into one of the grooves. Just a guess.
New Balance tennis shoes are made in USA n sale great....
Shedddualll? You’re sounding British. Lol
Love the trunk hauls, Karen. And wanted to say that I love your lighter/blonder hair...or was it just the lighting?
Just the lighting but thanks! 💜
Love the box! Have you ever seen The House of Onyx? Things are so expensive they take 1 customer at a time by appointment, or at least it was that way. They may be online...
There is a group of resellers who do what you said...pick up items and share them with other resellers they know...so bummed when they do that..I miss out and they arrive an hour later. I get it but I dislike it. Thank you for the shopping trip.
Karen, your Goodwill is really stocked well. Mine in the high desert of CA is lacking! I'm thinking of taking a car ride to W Los Angeles Goodwill's to see if they're better. I love your content, you're an inspiration. Your nails & ring look great, but you always look great. Thanks for all you do!
Thanks Nicole 💜💜💜
When does the shopping start?!
I tried the Thrifty Shopper in Baldwinsville NY. they had such junk that you couldn't pay me to take it. How do I know where to go to see shelves like this??? Also, I'm confused with your shopping because I see stacked up art on the bottom shelf, don't you go through all that? There could be a rare painting in there or something. You're just so fast, like you know instantly what's worthy of your time and what isn't. I don't know if I would know what to buy and what to leave behind.. besides running comps, of course, but you really can only do that if you have a manufacturer. I love you and your channel, you're so inspiring, and your daughter is sweet, love her videos, as well!
When I was first married most bride's wanted a brass cricket box in their home. It brought good luck.
I have never heard this. Very interesting.
The lucky cricket idea comes from China.
Bobbins.
I have a large amount of old pre 1940s silverware. I tried looking to see if silver or silver plated and most are silver plated. Do silver plated things sell well?
We have ginko trees along the Columbia river in areas.
Do you ever wonder how few of your viewers know what a "clothesline" is?
:)
My grandkids don't know what a clothespin is...therefore, a clothesline.
I have other resellers in my goodwill that are aggressive lol he use to annoy me but he’s not that bad now but I agree I don’t like aggressive people I’m not if I get it I get it
Please somebody tell me where is this good will ? Thanks
