    I've been binge watching your videos because you teach my old self so many useful things. I live in SC where nobody sends the family heirlooms to thrift stores. So I need to find other items to sell. And you have been an eye opener!!! Thank you ❤

    You should do a belt research video. The belt you left that was made in Morocco I have sold before. The sell well.

    A friend gave me an older Rowenta iron (spelling?) used in box that was super clean and it sold for really good money.
    Thank you as always, Kat.

    I have that Jones New York purse & it's one of my favorites.
    If i'm interested in the contents of a sealed plastic bag ... I open it. Only because I don't want to get it home & find out it's broken or stained. I've never had a thrift store tell me not to do it. But I could understand with the linens, because there was gobs of them there. 😅
    And how fun that you have friends to thrift with!!

    I have learned so much about linens from you. I do have a question though. I don’t typically see you open them up and examine them so recently I was at a thrift store and found two sets of vintage twin sheets that were beautiful. I glanced at them but once I got them home and looked there were several stains. Do you find that or are you looking at them more carefully before you purchase them and we’re just not seeing that? And yes I would love one of your re-search videos on here care or actually anything you do I watch immediately. Thank you

    I’m totally with you that you don’t have to buy something just because it’s only $1. I see way too many people buying stuff “just because”.
