Hey Caroline. I was wondering if I could make a video request? My father passed away this week and my mom’s place has become super cluttered and the space feels really sad. I really want to make it a project and revitalize the space so it feels new and fresh and happy.
Would you ever consider doing a video on easy tips to refresh your space when you’re too depressed/low energy to redecorate? Thank you for this video and all the tips ❤
Just stepping in here real quick to say I'm sorry for your (and your mother's) loss. ❤️
@@bex572 ❤️ You’re extremely kind
Hi Jessie ❤️I’m so sorry for your loss. I know words can do very little next to what you’re facing, but I hope you feel them just the same. I’m guessing life is upside down and nonsensical right now. Whatever your way of coping is, I hope you’re taking care of yourself and letting those who love you take care of you too.
As for the video idea, I would love to do a video on this. It may not be for a number of weeks, but it’s on the list and I’m going to make this and put serious thought towards it in the meantime.
Sending you and your mom a lot of love ❤️
@@Caroline_Winkler I appreciate your kind words so much more than you know. Thank you for not only considering the idea, but also taking the time to provide comforting words to a complete stranger ❤️ I’m 26 and don’t have a huge budget atm, but I thought if anyone could give practical and creative advice, it would be you. Thanks again - I appreciate you lots.
Ps. Thank you for sharing your experience with tech with us a while back! I’ve been learning more about UI and UX design because of you ☺️
Hi again friend ❤️I’ve been thinking about this post since you commented. I made a video specifically for you today. I hope you are doing alright ❤️biggest hug. Hang in there.
Hey Caroline, I just wanted you to know that you shouldn't concern yourself about how frequently you post. If the rest of your subscribers are like me we are just glad to see you when we see you. Continue taking care of yourself you look great. Yes I am a 53 Year old black woman from Canada with a twelve-year-old and we both love watching you.
I can’t tell you how much this message means to me. I really appreciate your taking the time to write this Maxine. I get in my head and it’s so good to hear feedback from you. Love to you and your daughter both ❤️❤️❤️
Caroline you are one of a kind At a time when trendy has now become boring you are interesting.
100% and you might be perturbed to have another 50yo subscriber. haha. much love from Australia.
Understand that the money she generates for herself from posting her videos does matter.
@@lorrainechavez654 what does that mean? I am not sure how to read your comment are you presenting yourself as snarky or supportive? She should enjoy what she does and not allow it to cause anxiety. When I see her she is a treat not a chore.
The first tip is especially crucial when booking flights and hotels! The price difference is just insane!
Yes that is true.
Thank you for the tip!
Yes I was going to say the same thing... if you are not incognito, every time you refresh the flight page the price goes up ! ahahaha
Another day, another dollar.
Another day another drama!!!
It’s obviously Another day another 24 hours
Another day another slay
Another day, another nickle
Caroline I am not kidding when I say you consistently make my life better. These videos are so useful and uplifting and cozy.
I've been doing the whole "leave the thing in your basket until they email you a discount code" thing for years. I love it.
I LOL really hard at "No matter what century you're in"! You always delight, woman. Just always! Keep being awesome, Caroline. 🤩
Another shopping trick I use is to put stuff in my cart and leave it. They will almost always offer a discount, sometimes within a day or two in order to get me to check out.
Caroline, I owe you one. Actually about $75. I finally decided to make my small boring box of beige bathroom into something cool with wallpaper (after being convinced by makeover videos, also thanks to you). Managed to get a 20% off coupon with some slight sneaking, which is good since wallpaper prices are serious business! Who knows if you will see this but I just had to thank you for the inspiration and support in getting my ass out of this decorating rut.
If you don't need it instantly / there's lots available I also suggest starting the checkout process so they have your email, then abandon your cart. You'll usually get a follow up email within a few hours with a discount.
You should do a “Caroline watches Architectural Digest interior design react”! I would love to watch those!
Watched this and then right before I was about to check out this morning I remembered to do the incognito tip ... 25% off something I was going to pay normal price for... Thanks for all your videos. You're the only tv show I watch ❤
Cotton-eyed joe. I cannot with this premium comedy. Made my day.
I’ve never felt more targeted by a video in my lifeee 😂 The fact that the first item you used as an example is the exact rug that Im waiting to go on sale to purchase 😂😂 Thanks for these tips! I now feel badass❤
Yess!! Wheres the rug gonna go??
HI Caroline, I LOVE you channel, but when you mention getting a Reflexology treatment you are now in my heart forever. I am a licensed Reflexologist in North Dakota and I get asked all the time "What is Reflexology?" So, to have my favorite youtuber tell folks to save your money for a Reflexology Treatment I was over the moon! You're the best,
free session to you if ever in Noth Dakota!!! Thanks Marnie
The google image search is next level genius 🤩
For the second hack, also check the delivery costs. Because one site might be 40$ cheaper but has more expensive shipping and the total will cost you more.
Your humour is on my level. Thought you should know.
Thanks a lot Caroline! I wish the love you get from your followers compensates the hate from the Industry😀🍀
Sis, this Catholic girl is loving that Church bell in the background. (Not the truck reversing shortly thereafter!) I've seen that church from time to time in your outdoor walking vlogs ... I would love to live a block from that church because I'm a church lady. God bless you Caroline!
FYI in Chrome you can right click an image and do an image search directly without having to save it!!
Thank you!!
Caroline = hero status!
Hi Caroline, designer here! Love your videos so much! I can weigh in on the second hack- the retailers you shop (west elm etc) do not generally produce their goods. Most are produced by manufacturers who sell to multiple retailers. The retailers then use the manufacturer's MAP pricing (minimum advertised price) and MSRP (manufacturer's suggested retail price) to price the goods. It's not a conspiracy! Also, be cautious of who you order from, as some retailers (often ones you haven't heard of in your search) are selling seconds (flawed items), knockoffs, using sketchy shipping companies, or have terrible (or non-existent) customer service and policies. The best price is not always the lowest one ; ).
The up-close "Whatever century you're in" after mentioning IE sent me
Yours are the only videos where I don't jump forward past the "today's sponsor" part.
Jeepers, who knew, Caroline knew and as I sit here at work, drinking my coffee watching Caroline I know what to do to save money. Thank you for letting us in on the secrets of shopping on line. Tell us more at a later date. Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving.
❤️❤️
It’s Saturday = Caroline Time!!!!! We got two this week- what a treat! Please don’t ever worry about not posting. I feel fortunate for the time you choose to share with this community you have built. Taking care of yourself requires that you take time off as you need it. We will be here when you return. We ain’t going nowhere!!!! Have a safe week!!!!
Pro tipp: create another e-mail account just for those kinds of stuff (newsletter registrations for discounts, online raffles, freebies etc.)
There is another secret hack, that doesnt also work with every site, but, if the site has your email already, and you put something in your cart, but dont buy it, leave the site, sometimes the site will email you a coupon and remind you about the item you left in your cart.
Ebay provides this option to sellers. As a buyer if I put something in my cart and leave it there for a while I will sometimes get an email saying that the seller is offering me a special price.
@@jille9650 etsy does that to
Another day, another dime. 😊
Good tips! The incognito window hack is on my to-do list for sure.
The Honey extension is also great for getting discounts!
I had never heard of this tips! I tend to thrift as much as I can (mostly for sustainability concerns but its also a good way to save money, and I like the randomness of "encounters" finding unique objects that can become statement pieces), but whenever I need to buy something new and on the more expensive side I'll keep these tricks in mind!
Girl, yes. You da besss.
Wow! Caroline be dropping pearls of wisdom today! I had no idea about either of those tricks. Thank you.
The saying is “another day, another dollar.” Thanks for the info!
Hi, Caroline! I've been watching your videos since August of this year...they bring me joy! Would you ever consider making a video on how to use various tools around our home so we, too, can be as independent as you in painting, hanging art work, cutting wall paper, etc? Tips, tricks, how-to, what to be careful of, that sorta thing. Thanks for being such an inspiration while keeping it real. I hope you have a wonderful holiday season! XOXO
Ooo this would be great! And kind of things worth to buy and not buy for home decor “tool box”
GREAT IDEA!!!
Agreed!!!
love this idea!
2 uploads in 1 week! Our rich Auntie has blessed us
Great hacks, I do this too! I would add: just make sure that when you go into make the purchase it’s a reputable website. There are a lot of fake websites that use stolen images and product descriptions for items that make it look legit. So you may never get your item you paid for. Loved the video!
I just came across your videos and I am obsessed! I am an interior enthusiast - I have helped my friends with their houses/staging etc but am not a professional, and I find the way you explain things so user-friendly and easy to adapt. I live in NZ, so our furniture options are much smaller than the US (incl thrifting), so it's really inspiring to have design principles being shown that isn't based on being rich or having access to certain shops. Thank you for sharing your knowledge 🙏
I appreciate the use of Baskerville italics font I think that’s being used. -graphic designer & font nerd
Oh my god 😂😂 accurate. I use baskerville exclusively in my videos. It’s extravagant and ridiculous, feels like a good match. I’m dying at your deep don’t knowledge😂🙌
I play ‘guess that font’ and ‘guess the paint color’ a lot.
Stopped the video to thank you for the Cotton eye joe reference. Always a win in my book. :'DDDDDDDDDDDDD
Omg I literally just did the google image search the other day and my mind was blown! I didn't expect the furniture I was searching for to show up on so many different websites. Great hack! I'll definitely be using it while my fiance and I are trying to flesh out more furniture for our house.
It is amazing! It has really blown my mind shopping for ceiling lights. Gigantic price differences!
The variation is shocking sometimes. Blows my mind
I also love hands 😂 not in a weird way but also it’s probably weird. I love watching talented people work with their hands. Woodworker .... pottery.. etc
Love the William Morris background.
Omg my dad said it every day, "another day, another dollar" ❤️❤️❤️
Was anyone else fascinated by this?! Love seeing people cradle the code and use the system
These 2 hacks were AMAZING! THANK YOU!
Does everyone know about "Snipping Tool" on Windows? That "app" allows you to get an image of PART of the screen, if that's what you want. It saves it to a buffer area. I usually open a PAINT window and PASTE it there.
THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!! BTW, your sponsors are cool, so I don't mind watching your ads. Good job, Caroline!
'Another day, another day' lol! Caroline, you're the best ❣️
“One wall away from a crib…” I’m dying 😂❤
@Caroline I don't know if you'd still consider going into acting, but I totally see you as a Hallmark Movie actor...especially the Christmas ones! :) You just have that wholesome, sweet but spicy way about you and I WISH you could get into that. I have no idea how and where you audition for Hallmark, but I think you'd be a shoo-in!
The subtle nod to cotton eye joe😂
" I feel very well about thisthhhhhhhhhhhhh", awww I luv ya!
As a marketing and audience strategy professional, along with the coding, companies actually can track where you’re coming from (ad, email) due to cookies or whether you’re a return visitor so that they can feed you particular offers, etc. It’s SO interesting and crazy too.
Another day, another dollar. ❤
You are great! I just discovered you tonight and am trying to catch up on a few of your videos that are up my alley (which is all of them, lol). I usually don't comment on stranger's RUclips's channels but I did want to take a minute to tell you I am glad I found you - you are funny, authentic, charming, and humble all rolled into one. Unique combo! Keep up the organizational and money saving shopping vids! If you haven't already done any DIY vids I'd love to see those from you as well. Thanks again for sharing yourself with the world! Glad I found you!
p.s. It's "Another day, another dollar." 💵😉
These are awesome hacks! Thanks for sharing Caroline. Now people who don't live in the US can shop on a budget and apply the savings to those horrid shipping costs. Greatly appreciated.
Love this. So glad it’s helpful!
By having no free shipping it keeps it competitive to small mom and pop stores. Jeff bezos is rich enough
Caroline promoting the sponsor of her videos is the only way I enjoy watching ads. Other than that, love all those online shopping hacks!!
Haha I’m glad you enjoy them. I think I’m trying to see how much they’ll let me get away with. I’ll let you know when I’ve crossed a line
@@Caroline_Winkler They'll MOVE the Line for YOU, believe me on this. You're literally driving traffic. Great Job
I’m on Mejuri right now, it’s working 😂
@@Caroline_Winkler they can't ever complain abt u crossing the line - u have THE most creative ads ever!
Another day another SLAY!!!!🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🥹
Winkler’s just crankin em out this week damn
Honestly I ate a lot of pie and sugar and needed the outlet
@@Caroline_Winkler 🤣🤣🤣
I do this stuff ALL the time!! Also there's Rakuten (in Canada, maybe you have it in the US?) and if you shop the retailer through their portal, not I ly can you still apply the discount code for the retailer, but Rakuten gives you a % CASH back for your purchase. 2nd tip: I've noticed with some clothing retailers, if you buy something they give you a discount code *after* your purchase, to use within a cerain timeframe so you go back to them and keep shopping there... beat them at their greedy game by not buying multiple things at once. 🤑
But then you have to pay for shipping twice and any savings is likely canceled out by it. Also creates more packaging and waste :/
@@striketochill I forgot to mention this! I try to opt for retailers where I can pick up at a location near me. Usually clothing retailers will show stock quantities too. I've bought clothing, got the discount, got the cash back, tried on in store when I went to pick up and only kept what I wanted.
@@lllovesalll Good tip! I looove buying online and getting the deals but then picking up in store. Instant gratification haha. I do that for Target a lot and it also helps prevent unnecessary spending for little things you see while shopping in store. (Target is esp notorious for getting us with that one haha!)
Awesome tips! Also Google has baked the function into google search. That little multicolored camera icon in the search input field is google image search. You can just pick up and drag desired image on top of it from your search results or click the camera first. Your choice. You don't need to screenshot or save the image anymore. Also, hovering over an image from your google search results in Chrome and right clicking (for all you non Mac users) will give you the option to search the image via google lens. This route will give you similar results.
Going to use the incognito trick all the time now! Thanks.
I just love that you make talking about spending money entertaining and now we can feel like we really are getting a steel! ❤
Private browsing…thank you for decoding shopping for us. 👏👏👏
Girl, you are a true delight.
I didn’t know how to screenshot for Google image search, but I often google the description of the object and see who else has it. I just bought a Free People jacket for $60 that I almost paid $190 for. That’s such a great tip! ❤️💸💫
That is what I do when the image won't give me results. I use name of item or similar keywords and bingo! Never fails.
You can sign up for a Google Voice number and use that number for the texts. I use my Google Voice number for all internet forms....so much better. 😊
I stumbled upon this video. I'm not even into home decor so much (I mostly buy tools online), but you taught me some great insights and you are a joy to watch. Thank you!
I think you should do vlogmas! 🤞
Who's with me?
Btw, loved your Thanksgiving family vlog.
OMG! I'm so happy I found your channel. I love your take on design and you are so fun to listen to! I will be tuning in for lifestyle tips and listening to your podcast. I'm so glad I found you!
Hey All~ a friend of mine that travels a lot said to always search for airline tickets using the incognito screen to avoid being tracked and shown higher costs once they know where you need to go.
This is so right! I've had tickets go from $350 to $500 in the course of a few hours after searching multiple times.
Yes it works great for that.
Yay! Thanks Caroline! I just did the image search and found a mirror that was in my cart elsewhere for less and with free shipping! Woohoo!
Omg 2 vids in a week 😭❤️
The editor is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Another day, another slay, Moonsheeka did your hair today😅
We all appreciate you right back! Thank you for the hacks! Perfect timing. 🎁
Love the nod to Cotton Eye Joe 😂 that song pops into my head almost weekly and I just do not know why!
I just found this channel. I went back and started binge watching. Their is nothing I don’t like about Caroline and this channel. Love it.
I just ordered a lamp from CB2 (discount didn’t apply as it was already on sale). One thing I’ve learned is that if you use a VPN, sometimes airline tickets are cheaper if they think you are shopping from another country.
…”too late, it’s already in the video….” ❤️😂😍👍💯
This is gold. Thanks for the tips! BTW, you crack me up. I love the way you show up in the world. 🥰
“Another day another dollar.”
Love watching your videos.
Thank you..
Blessings to you from Crete Greece..❤❤
Hello Caroline. I have just recently started watching your videos (last couple of months) and I love them. You are relatable with your support for mental health as well as hilarious and entertaining to watch. Hope you have a great holiday season!
OMG, you just saved me $200+! I used your Google image search and found out the chairs I was about to buy at Macys are also sold at Target under a different name. Love you girl!!!
I'm personally a fan of using the Chrome extension Honey that tries all of the coupon codes that other people have used and sticks u with the one with the most savings!
The thumbnail just makes me very happy! 😁 love it!
Thank you! I will share this video with my daughter who will be buying new furniture in the future and she will love YOUR channel!
This is maybe the only hack video i have ever watched that is really usefull and not a clickbait. Thank you Caroline.
I didnt know until right now that I need a crib chair too! It has to be large enough so I can curl my legs under me because Im all fancy like that. Thanks for the tips Caroline
I knew for sure the thumbnail said “sneaky links” 😂😂😂!!! I mean, another great way to fund our decor addiction!
Great tips from you and the comment section. I've used some of them in the past but now I realize I've left a lot of money on the table by not using them for all my purchases. Savings that I could use for my ever-changing home decor and picture gallery obsession or up my charity donations. I do like your approach to design and money in general - really enjoyed the kitchen make-over.
Leftover homemade pie for breakfast and a new video🎉 thankful grateful and blessed
Wow! Thanks for the great tips Caroline!!
Caroline coming in clutch with the tips!
Wow! Wow! Wow! Caroline, these were such great tips! Thankyou.
How did I not know these! Thankful for YOU!
This was excellent!!!!! Thanks for the tips!
I love your headbands ❤
Just in time for all of my christmas shopping, thanks Caroline!
First "thumbs-up"--always a lovely Saturday morning to spend time with Caroline!🥰
