      I did notice a couple things, too🙁. The sad part is that we did clean up a lot all day. I was just dumb enough to edit out and/or not film it. In our storage locker videos I had learned that nobody wanted to watch us putting things back in the boxes and cleaning up. I think it was a mistake in this video because instead of just keeping it moving along, it is very distracting to some people.

    I love how the homeowners come out with more stuff for you and are so friendly. They probably look forward to this time of year so they can do a mini clean out. I always feel better donating what I don’t need as opposed to throwing it in the trash. My favorite item was the kids kitchen with all the pots and pans and utensils.

    • @FlippinTheMitten
      @FlippinTheMitten  28 дней назад +4

      It really is nice of them, I feel like we met a lot of nice people out there. I think some of them do look forward to the clean out and the atmosphere of the whole event. I know what you're saying about donating, I think both the homeowners and pickers like us get a little bonus of good feelings by keeping good things from the landfill. I think the little kitchen may be Bobbie's favorite, too, lol

      After digging things out of the boxes, Can't you put things back in the boxes? Don't just throw things around. That's why some people don't want people digging in their trash. They leave a mess.

    • @FlippinTheMitten
      @FlippinTheMitten  25 дней назад +1

      I did notice a couple things, too. It's amazing what you learn watching yourself. There was something that makes it look much worse than it was, though... the editing. I think I left out every time that we put the stuff down or in the truck and picked up after that. In our other types of videos I learned that nobody wants to see us do any of the cleaning, but I think in this type it's just the opposite. I think it's distracting to not show some

    The brass eagle you found used to be given out to home owners as a symbol of pride for the completion of the loan on the property, in other words showing your neighbors your property was paid off! It used to be a symbol of pride to property owners to display this on the front of their house, so sad to see that in the trash....glad you rescued it from recycling.

      We have once a month in our cities in Maricopa county in Arizona. If I had a vehicle I would go doom dooming (it's what my hubby calls it). We just saved a dresser a couple days ago from the sidewalk. And I am a part of a neighbor group and we saved a brand new bed that I was just chilling I believe in a spare room. Still fully wrapped in plastic and has a cover that comes off to be washed. Also this weekend another neighbor is nice and gonna drop off 2 more dressers. I just let neighbors know we just moved and whatever furniture items and craft items we would love to regime so they don't have to go to the dump.

    I just found your channel. Not sure where y'all are at but, i go way up north to visit my son and family in Eden Prairie, MN and one neighborhood you were at looked so much like the one at Edina I think it was for an estate sale. It was an awesome older home for sale but developers buy them up, tear them down and build bigger homes that have none of the charm. I felt so sad about that. Btw, I live jn Louisiana and been a resller for a very long time. Y'all have a new subscriber!!

  • @livelystones7773

    Love this! Just found your channel! So can I ask - how do you store all your finds if you are going out regularly? You must accumulate so many things. Do you have a storage unit? And do you make a decent full-time living reselling? Thanks

    • @FlippinTheMitten
      @FlippinTheMitten  13 дней назад +1

      Hi, you sure can ask. We do have extra storage space at home and at our flea market booth, but we do still get overloaded sometimes. One of the things that helps is trying to sell some of the less valuable stuff cheap and quick as possible. Making a living as a full-time reseller can be hard work, but we have always managed to, at very worst make as much as working a decent hourly job. At best, when we've been doing a good job for a while, we can stay steadily at a much higher income. Not millions, of course, but definitely more comfortable. It does take a lot of work, though and any time we make changes, like spending more time at the flea market instead of selling online (for example) - our income can change quickly.

    I did watch a video I think you should have picked up that lamp it was very pretty that would be nice in a ladies closet order our own private bathroom I think you could have easily gotten 90 bucks for it so why did you leave it people are always remodeling their homes and if they can find the items that they want for sale at a lower price they will save a lot of money if you see any more lamps don't pass them up take a photo put it in the album and you can advertise it for a DIYER project.
