$25.00, I'm with you on the tissue paper. But, I would have been happy with all the Christmas wrap too. A few nice items for the flea too. Not too bad a unit. Have fun with it, kiddo.
A point of interest to people putting things into storage. If there is a lot of shredding and you don't have the time to do it yourself, there are places that provide shredding. Most of the UPS stores, here, take paper to shred. Yes, it costs some money, but it's worth it if you have a lot. My husband cleared out his fathers home and they never threw away one piece of paper and I went through the same thing when it came to my dad moving and downsizing. I started doing the shredding myself and wrecked one shredder and was so tired of shredding paper, with the replacement shredder, that we hauled the rest to UPS. I do think people have good intentions regarding the other stuff they store and just don't get around to dealing with it.
I've used the UPS paper shredding service. They charge by the pound but, I thought it was worth it terms of the time it would have taken me. I understand some towns offer free paper shredding. My town offers it in the spring and fall. Now I know!
Most people are putting their things in storage due to downsizing, moving in with relatives, hitting hard times, etc. It explains weird items being tossed in together willy-nilly as they were just trying to pack up the last items in a hurry.
I always wonder what misfortune befell the owners of the storage unit and caused them to be unable to keep their stuff. It's interesting to see what you find but also a bit sad as well.
I applaud your adage to check everything. I once found a $50 Home Depot card in a batch of gift bags I paid a dollar for at an estate sale. Sold it on eBay for $48.50.
I heard that, in some places, when people get evicted, the landlord has to box up ALL their tenants stuff and put it in storage and give the person access to the stuff, but sometimes I wonder if the person just moves away and starts all over or ends up in prison or in a shelter.
It’s always fun to watch you guys buy a storage unit or a pallet just for the mystery of opening boxes that you have no ideas in it. Good entertainment two for me. Thank you.
A possible explanation for someone paying for storage and putting such things in it. I had to leave suddenly and had a few things that I couldn't give up or carry with me. Since I had space left over, I just put anything of value, potential value, for when I would have a place to put it. Even if you think they are valueless.
For just 25 bucks, it's fun to gamble, and open the totes...Buzz whispers to Miss Moose " I never saw "Lord of the Rings" either! haha......I could hear Burl Ives singing "Silver and Gold" as you were pulling out that jewelry...Here's an idea.....you can use those tickets, and sell them for 5 bucks apiece to tour the "Paper and Moose" ephemera and ceramic Christmas Tree , and knee hugging elves collection😁😁
Yes I agree, why on earth would you pay to store what was in that unit? Thankfully, Christmas saves the day again. It's worth the $25 for the entertainment you provide us.😅❤🐨
Buying storage lockers is like a lottery: in most cases you lost. Nonetheless you won again, Renée, because you just created another yt - block buster generating tons of $. Hopefully ! 🤞Concerning the content of this unit: you got some neat totes, a couple of gift cards, a winter hat, a bag of pennies and a whole pile of Christmas wrapping and tissue paper which is neat. So, not a bad result for a unit like that.👌No huge profits in sight so far, but also no losses. Thanks for the final advice as well, I am just shredding a lot of useless stuff which wasn´t mine. 😄Keep it up, and have a fantastic weekend ! 🌝 Greets from GER, U.
I think that last tote paid for the unit just because it saved you money. And your Aunt. And then there might be more gift cards to find. I liked it. And you still liked the the thrill of the hunt. I love you cutie pie! Stay safe and healthy. 💜😘💞💞💞🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏✌️👶
Hi Reneé, people don't consider the "value of goods to the cost of storage" relationship. How many pairs of scrubs could have been purchased with the money spent on storage fees? A lot! Have a blessed day 💖✝
Your storage tips were great. As an accountant, I tell people all the time to scan stuff, if you're not sure. Otherwise most of the paper work you need to retain on a yearly basis is far less than you might think and you don't need to keep them forever, ha. BTW, take a chance on the average cost of the units you're buying. As this is all linked to content here on you tube, it's an expense and can be written off taxes. Please seek advice from a professional in your area though. When I had my own business I sought out an outside CPA to advise and do my taxes. Still, you're young take a chance. ;)
I paid to store belongings in a facility like this one with limited access. I moved to Europe and with a few exceptions needed to store everything I owned including my car. The moving company I used owned the facility and, when I moved back to the US, I just had to call them and get everything delivered to my new address.
I know people who rent storage units. A long time friend has nine (9) units. We're in 2BR condo and I toss junk every day. You'll get $$ for the scrubs and jewelry even if it's junk. The empty totes are worth something, too. Tina, Al's wife
I wonder if the facility goes through the totes, takes the good items, and makes a pallet of the totes that have little value in them. These totes don’t seem like what a person would only put in storage. Usually, they have more totes with household items, clothes, etc.
Another pallet o' totes..🤔🙄 Looks like a bunch of personal paper..😢 The best find was Me Precious 😅😍 Was fun watching you go through the totes Rene..😮 Thanks for the fun..🎉 Take care..👍💕🔥👊
Hey Renee. For $5 bucks it's a steal. You made your money on tissue paper and wrapping paper as well. Ok, you got a small bag of pennies and jewelry. You did good. The other unit was unbelievably bad but not too bad. And the cost of it was more. God Bless you sweet heart 💜❤️. Take care of yourself. Love Mari'a. ❤️❤️💜💜👻👻👻🎃🎃🎃🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈⬛🤗🤗🤗🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈⬛👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍
I enjoyed your video a whole lot! There might not have been any treasures. But, for $25 you picked up stuff that you eventually would've had to buy, anyhow. That's sure a win! Maybe the person had to make a quick exit and put everything in the totes, only to never bother to sort through the stuff and then finally just stopped paying for the storage. I'll tell ya, though - I sure don't know how they'd make due without those Tiki torches!!! I must've seen the "Lord Of The Rings" films dozens of times. Our TV service had a channel that played those films, only those films, on a continuous loop - day after day, week after week, year after year. The films are epic. Thanks again for taking us all along in your search for some treasures. It sure was great!
I don’t suppose you make junk journals! Because I’m seeing things on your videos and thinking oh that would be good for junk journals!! I’m very jealous, wish I could do what you do! I’d be so excited!
It's like a shot in the dark, never know what pops out, keeps it interesting though. We all have the curious streak, want to know what's in the box, you never know what you might find.
Nah...that's part of the adventure...better than what we have out here in the Bay Area...NO-THING!!! Get out the Krazy Glue! Toys Are Us died some years back out here. No buttons?? to go with the bows??? What people save! I was sent 7 sheets of cute fr-g stickers by a friend who knows of my liking of these creatures! Yesterday, at my Sal. Army trip, I bought a cute cookie jar in the shape, no not one of those, but of my other interest...vintage radios of the 20s-40s. This jar a very neat replica of a 1933 Philco Cathedral table model Set! All that wrapping paper...wall decoration for a Christmas living room?
I highly recommend watching the entire Lord of the Rings movie trilogy. It's really good and there's a lot of collectibles around it, including just the figurines you found, but also cards, pottery (mugs and stuff), jewelry, barbies, etc. And the character you're thinking of is Gollum/Smeagol. I'd also recommend getting acquainted with the books from which the LotR and Hobbit film series were made. The older editions of Tolkien's books are probably highly coveted by fans.
Is it true sometimes landlords who evict people must store personal effects for some time, then just default on rental and unit goes to auction? I really don’t know
Now you'll have to start watching lord of the rings with your new jewellery on never seen those films myself either loved that hat great video Renée 👍®️
What the Hel.. ck, not seen the Lord of The RIng, and not the three Star Wars movies. Oh my Golly, I don't even dare to ask if she has seen Akira Kurosawa's Shichinin no Samurai (Seven Samurai) which is the best movie ever made. Close to 4 hours of black and white samurai film from 1954, can it get any better? Beautiful.
There are any number of reasons someone might pay for storage. One thing that comes to mind is a roommate or ex goes missing or goes to jail and you need to move but don’t want to throw away their stuff because you like the roommate or ex. So yeah, a little insensitive.
All that paper - to recycle or have a bonfire?! You have enough to 'reclaim' your $25 on the Christmas 'paper' tote alone. People are strange creatures 🙂 (PS IMHO you looked younger with short hair plus it wasn't dangling in the way). Stay well, Winter is coming (for you, we're warming up downunder). 🤗🦘🦘🦘
Wish you the best of luck 🙏😇 soon you'll get that big score on a 20 dollar unit that will help you score on a 200 dollar unit 😇🤑 be patient and look closely at all pictures, I screenshot the pictures so I could zoom in and sometimes I see something of value that others don't see giving me the advantage and 90% of the time I win those units. That's why it's a advantage of who knows the most . I just lost a unit that the owner paid off but it was only at 80 with a soda sign of the 40s worth over 1,000 that you could only see the corner and part of the words, I spent 3 nights looking for signs until I found it . Sadly for me the owner took it off but that's the advantage I had over the other buyers if they didn't know of that sign . Good luck 🙏😇
My mom always said that tissue paper makes gifts elegant. That was definitely an elegant tote.
😂

Jail. Or prison.
@@rudolphbondefangerer5513
I usually wonder, too.
@kathleenj1158 The young lady said something about court documents, whoever owned this junk probably didn't pay anything for the storage of it.
I think often it's financial problems
I applaud your adage to check everything. I once found a $50 Home Depot card in a batch of gift bags I paid a dollar for at an estate sale. Sold it on eBay for $48.50.
The bargains just keep on getting discovered...and everything is resalable.Good unit!!!
I love that you get excited, and you have a great laugh! You should tell Taco Stacks to smile more! 😂
@3:03 As a crafter I would be delighted to find a whole roll of old tickets in the box. 😁
Me too, I ,are junk journals, and would love that roll of ticket!

Renee ! Thanks for taking us along! I appreciate you! Stay safe stay great and keep up the good work!
Glad you mention the dates for magazines etc. I am always curious about that.
What a hoot! Lots of stuff and not much treasure. Thanks for sharing!
Check out the pennies, because if there are only them in the bag, maybe they are worth more than just pennies.
Renee, your money is in those scrubs, trust me ( nurse) I used to pay $40 & up. I think you did good!
To me it would be cheaper to replace that stuff than pay to store it. The old paperwork was junk when they stores it. 😅
I think that last tote paid for the unit just because it saved you money. And your Aunt. And then there might be more gift cards to find. I liked it. And you still liked the the thrill of the hunt. I love you cutie pie! Stay safe and healthy. 💜😘💞💞💞🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏✌️👶
Looks like you got twenty five dollars worth of totes and a lot more of excitement 🎉
Toys r us closed nationwide years ago
@@gretchendemasi768 he said nothing of toys r us, but it is still in canada

This is as fun as the old garage bags. $25 is good. $70 is a little more stressful because of the price. 🤣
I've done about 10 storage units now, and i find it hella FUN! no telling what you might end up with. keep chuggin away
Loving 🎉 it all! You make the BEST of it! 🎉❤Thanks for the fun video!
Don't forget to go thru the paperwork as there could be money in there. Nice buy! Audra

yeah.... I don't trust them either....it's called cherry picking and it happens a lot....

Useful products like tissue paper is always a good thing! I'll be stocked up for shipping supplies & Christmas!
If that's gold, you will probably spend all the money buying more units trying to top that one. It's a vicious cycle.😂😂
I love the joy you share with us in your treasure hunting! Also, the let down when things aren't up to your hopes! 🥰
Seems like I heard Toys R Us was coming back, don’t know if it’s true. 🤷🏼♀️ Maybe. Have a good weekend, Renee! ✌🏼❤️
Thank you for this mystery auction❤👏
Yay for scrubs, Christmas, & totes!
Love these videos! The mystery is thrilling! I have always wanted to do this keep up the awesome videos!
Thank you for the entertainment, REnee.
You never know what will be there.🎉🎉🎶🎶🌹🌹
Cheers,

Not bad....not bad at all...thanks for sharing your finds...🥰🥰
So glad for you Renee.
Little things you happy. So sweet
You’ve some nice finds 😊
Awesome ❤
The drill is definitely a win. Sadly the toys r us GC is almost worthless unless it’s accepted by the new owners
Nice tree topper might be vintage as the cool candle wall holder.

You should make your money back selling those scrubs. Crazy what some people put in storage units.

Love you vids! Glad you don’t spend a lot on stuff!
Retro style glasses? I remember my mom and relatives pics with similar from the 😊 60s

You look good thru that stuff ,,,,you may find Taco Stacks a personality .
Well wrap me up, put a bell & a bow on me and send me home! Well, at least some usable items 👍🤣👍
That furry hat is pretty cool 😊
Oooppps ding ding ding wrapping paper yes
That is just one more unit closer to your big win!
About those Toys R Us gift cards….
They went out of business 5 years ago
But people might buy for nostalgia
In America, they really are into the Christmas thing. I have never seen so much of it from watching your videos. lol
Nah...that's part of the adventure...better than what we have out here in the Bay Area...NO-THING!!! Get out the Krazy Glue! Toys Are Us died some years back out here.

25 bucks is not a bad amount to spend. You will get your money back on all that.
I loved everything your attitude! And yes, why do people pay to store that kind of stuff?

There is “paper” (yeah) and then there is “paperwork” (boo). Thanks for the fun.
The gas can cost $15.00 . They had the room in the tote so why not . People know there going to need one someday . So why spend another $15.00 .
How much do you want for the wrapping paper? I love paper! Especially tissue paper ❤❤❤
Extra Space storage has excellent service in Cape Coral, Florida.
Check the pennies might be wheat pennies or something, someone saved them for a reason
That pink roll could have necklaces.
Toy's R us is still open online. They call them gas cans even though they are plastic because they originally, they were metal.
Enjoyed
Great video 😊
Fun and storage items need to be gone through.
I think there may be a couple Toys R Us in the U.S. I know some Macy's have a Toys R Us pop up within their stores.
We have Toys R Us here in Canada
The tickets will probably sell at the flea market for a school or church to use for a raffle. They aren’t cheap to buy.
Hey you got a nice hat out of it to!!! THANKS
The totes are worth $25!
YAY
Your all set for wrapping.paper etc for quiet a while
Tickets are great in junk journals
gas cans are pricey, so that is why it was stored
Is that a taco stacks van drop box🤩🤩🤩🤩
So will you let us know if there's anything on the Toysrus card?
Christmas tote saves Rene from buying wrap for awhile.
Nothin cuter than a happy female scavenger.
Toys R Us went out of business years ago. Those cards might sell on eBay as collectibles.
Is it true sometimes landlords who evict people must store personal effects for some time, then just default on rental and unit goes to auction? I really don’t know

Nine tote bins sold at $5.00 each, more than covers your purchase price! Anything else pure profit.
When in doubt, part it out!
