    Just a word of caution when thrifting at the bins. My husband got an awful gash on his hand at the bins. He put his hands under a pile of clothing to flip it over and there was a broken wine glass. He now wears cut protective gloves. I still don't wear the gloves, because I like to feel fabrics. So instead of lifting clothing, I carefully move it from the top where I can see clearly what's in the bin. I too have come across broken glass in the bins. How it ends up in the clothing bins, I don't know! We had to file a claim for his injury and thankful he didn't need stitches, but he was close. Just to see the blood everywhere got me in a panic. Be very careful.

      Omg I’m so sorry this happened - I’ve seen this happen a handful of times before in hard good bins but never clothing bins!
      Yes, definitely being cautious of where and how you’re digging is super important and I like your method of carefully moving pieces to the side of your bins has any kind of history with something like that happening. Thanks for sharing!

      I also use my hands, but I'm careful. I've found a pair of scissors between the clothes once and also items full of sewing pins (as in an unfinished project).

    My last bins trip I took your advice to go through every item and to make sure I’m at every rotation.
    I came home with a lot more items. I also couldn’t believe the things people were passing by.
    Thanks!!!

    This is such great advice . This year I found several tops in cheaper brands items sold at Target, Walmart and Kmart. They were great colors and natural materials and were in great condition .
    I sold these right away after listing and the buyers wrote back and told me how pleased they were to get these items. Most were vintage . I also got these cheap. This style based shopping is working great for me this year.

    Question about a tacted on tag. Is it usually just one stitch on either side of the tag? Or does the stiching go all the way down both sides of the tag? Also is the same true for tags that have stiching on all 4 sides?

    I got really good at finding 100% silk items, but I'm soooo unlucky with them, I swear they are always so stained...just me? All the Tommy Bahama silk items I ever found are literally in the top of the dirtiest items I found at a thrift store haha

    I touch everything in the bin I'm at top to bottom and I find most of the good stuff on the bottom! The only irritating thing is when other people come to the bin you have already cleared out half and they start ripping thru it. I say something every time because im not doing all that for "them"!
    Great video with alot of information i did not know and will start doing when I source. Thank you!!

      @Dawn congratulations on your 6K total!! That’s SO amazing! And also, thank you so much for the kind words. :) we do have a paid membership - and we haven’t even promoted it on our channel yet!
      We do our best to provide as much value as we possible can for FREE to help the community any way we can, and offer what we believe to be the best paid community for resellers who choose to go that route. Both can exist at the same time, and both can be equally as amazing (which we feel they are)
