[@lisaliv2585]

Its so nice to watch someone thrifting for their home vs resale. Its so much more chill and relaxing.

[@tinagant7779]

Julie sad to say its not just your Goodwill.They have lost their mind on prices.They have turned into Greedwill.ive stopped shopping there.Many of us have.They are ridiculous

[@lindasoderberg9477]

Their CEO is the highest paid CEO in the "charitable" resale stores while the CEO of Salvation Army is the lowest!

[@susieqsevenable]

💯🎯

[@tanyas.4849]

Yes! It's the same in California. I don't shop there anymore. And there is no consistency with pricing. Which tells me there are no guidelines or policies. I'm done.

[@rosepetals3752]

It's not only in your part of the country, it's everywhere, it's crazy. I'm in upstate New York, and its craziness is here, and the clothes are out of this world pricing also. Also thses stores are JAMED PACKED with customers. It's really getting tough for shoppers.

[@LindaFoyle]

@@tanyas.4849 I’m in California, and yes, prices are crazy, I walk there to look around, on days I’m trying to get my “steps” in❤

[@pamwalmsley1865]

For the people that say “you pay that price at an antique store” I say, “If I want to pay antique prices I wouldn’t be at goodwill!” Love your channel❤

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Great point. Thank you!

[@nina-mariebarr6425]

Also, the items being sold at antique stores are not donated and antique stores are considered non-profits. Goodwill is a non-profit making millions for the owner, who is a millionaire from his income from his stores.

[@nina-mariebarr6425]

Correction: Antique stores are not non-profits

[@julielozano1852]

That Spode Christmas pie plate was beautiful and a steal at $2.29 👍🏻

[@bonnierainwater4484]

Ikr!! I would LOVE to have it! I just knew she would get it.

[@ThrilledThrifter]

I almost got that and could kick myself for not 😢

[@shannonjohnson2105]

Yes I would have wanted to pickup .

[@stacyhopkins908]

I would have snapped that up! Great price!

[@jeannethelen3604]

Agree..that would have Been in my buggy in a NY minute.

[@martapekis3297]

That's a spode pie pan,you can tell when it has a Santa Claus on top of tree.can be pricey new.

[@jadestone8552]

Julie, I am in West Texas and the Goodwills out here have gone ridiculous with their pricing. I have three different stores and the prices have gotten really high and the quality of the donation doesn’t warrant that kind of price. I really enjoy going with you.

[@lizharris1728]

I wish I could have seen with him to get that tote of fabric. That was a good price. By the way, I'm a quilter 😊❤

[@knothead35]

Yeah, sometimes i think the people in the back have no idea ehat they're doing. I was just in my goodwills yesterday and they had a Christmas tree lit star marked $4. The original sticker was still on it for $5. I overheard another person complaining about it. But then they had some really nice made in England Danby coffee cups with the saucers for .79cents each lol. Those easily go for around $8 each brcause they aren't made anymore. Anyway, i snatched up all the mugs...left the star...and so did everyone else 😅. It's not it was a collectable or anything. It was a Walmart tag!

[@deannaray4837]

That was a excellent price on that Spode, because I work in a Bridal shop we sell Spode and you would be shocked at Spode prices.

[@ThrilledThrifter]

I knew I should have grabbed that.

[@joystone6460]

Our Goodwill went crazy with their pricing several years ago and has not gone down any since. They want the price of new for so much of their items.

[@ellaashby5159]

Nice to be able to go along with you to the thrift stores My area stores are terrible. Dirty and expensive. You give me inspiration to keep trying and I appreciate that. Your great at finding and then using and repurposing your treasures

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Thank you so much!

[@kathleenshort1072]

Julie that spode christmas tree pie plate was so nice. I would of bought that. Your goodwill has so much more than mine.

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Thank you!

[@kernd574]

I primarily shop a one church thrift store. Their church has a lot affluent members and the get some fantastic things especially furniture. They too have gone up on prices and only occasionally run a 50% off sale on hard goods when they use to run them at least monthly . But if you look closely you can still get some good deals. I rarely shop at Goodwill or the American thrift. I fine good deals at yard sales.

[@marilyn9155]

Ha! My Goodwill TRIED to charge me for a broken wooden Christmas ornament , broken in a few places… I told them I’d be happy to buy and fix…she finally said- oh just take it ! This , after much deliberation on her part I kindly mentioned , who’d buy it broken -I was willing. But yes. Getting expensive. I think they realize not-so-needy folks are shopping . Love love love the mug and wreath . Wreath looks so so pretty on mirror. You got lots at this location . ❤Marilyn xx

[@beckyls9068]

Julie I never heard of this brand so i checked it out. Pretty well reviewed. I love your videos. That Spode plate was beautiful!!!!

[@beckyls9068]

Julie I loved it when you spotted the train case and you said if ya know ya know. I did know and it was perfect. I've got a hubby that is obsessed with trains. 15:00

[@user-zb9ne7ol7f]

Yes, there is a Basketville in Putney, Vermont. I lived in Brattleboro , Vermont , then after that it's Putney. Lots of places to get the Vermont Maple Syrup. Back when I lived there long time ago they had a Santa's Land for the kids. Don't know if they still do. Nice made basket from there. Yeah the prices are outrageous at my Goodwill. And they won't come down a bit. You would think that they would rather get rid of it rather than it staying on the shelf. I guess it's the sign of the timed. Greed. Love that wreath on your mirror. Take care ❤ Deana

[@shariwagner3002]

👵💜OMG the prices!! The Spode pie plate was a great.price. Julie, you are doing great with Vlogmas👵💜🎄🎅

[@kmo3811]

As long as people keep buying carloads of items at Goodwill (which they do at my store and we only get 50% off on one color on Sundays now, no other discounts!) Goodwill will continue to raise prices. I have said for a few years now that they've turned into Greedywill. My store even asks you to donate your change at the register. I feel I already donate to them by buying things they get for free. I keep my change throughout the year for Christmas. Have a great Christmas everyone!

[@kitp5734]

I loved the lantern at :55, the tri-fold photo frame, the brass candleholder at 6:45 and the Santa figurine at 12:30. Really enjoying the series!

[@cherylvaughan7802]

Some of those prices were crazy. I loved the Spode Christmas tree plate and the wreath you picked up was gorgeous!

[@faithclay1626]

I agree with you! When you thrift usually all those items are donated! In and antique store they were purchased by the seller.

[@texasrose455km]

I don't know how old your basket with the wooden lid is, but that was a hot craft item in the late 60s-early 70s - it was sold as a purse! I had one and painted the lid with strawberries. Peal-and-stick burlap was also "in" and I lined mine with it. Don't know what happened to it... Will be fun to see what you do with yours 😊

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Oh awesome! Thank you 😊

[@annettegroseclose4022]

Julie when picked up that Strawberry pie plate I was literally drooling. Ive been looking for one of those forever. I almost came off the couch when you picked that up. Love watching you and your channel. 2:48

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Thank you! I k ew someone would love that.

[@jennifercox3298]

The basket looks like a basket purse. They were popular in the 1970s and were painted. Caro Nan was one of the artist who painted them. Look it up, you will be surprised.

[@janneking3878]

The basket ... oh yes walnut!! .. ohhh would be lovely!!!

[@maria-californiathrifter4025]

Julie I agree with you 100%, my local goodwill is out of control on prices

[@ThrilledThrifter]

They’ve gone crazy!

[@KarenMoberg]

Your grandson will love that train case . ❤

[@ThrilledThrifter]

He definitely loved it!

[@margaretrose8105]

I used to go on bus trips to the Williamsburg, VA..Pottery tactory.. irs a huge "outlet" of craft stuff..on rhe other side of it is shopping heaven....there is Prime Outlets, multi Christmas stores and a Basketville outlet. If you like baskets. You will love this giant store. All shapes, sizes ant not priced too high. Love it.

[@marybrock3221]

I live in Vermont. We pride ourselves in quality crafting. Good find!

[@rosesavoia4657]

Julie nobody has the right to comment on who what where when and why? You do you. Love watching what you find.

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Thank you so much.

[@rosemaryyoder4102]

Recently I broke something for the first time ever at the thrift store! So mortifying! Someone put a tiny bowl inside a big opaque one on the top shelf and when I tipped the bowl to see inside, don’t you know that little thing flew right on out and broke an old milk glass mixer bowl. 💀 I had all six of my youngsters with me and I felt like we were already drawing all kinds of uncomfortable attention. The guy who came to clean it up couldn’t have cared less that something broke or even what broke and he was super sweet about it and I was so grateful!!

[@lindasoderberg9477]

New mason jars pickup was a great buy!

[@bonnierainwater4484]

Oh wow! Only 3 minutes in, and I see Spode again! Oh! I hope you got it!!

[@reneeblankenship7354]

The Santa is perfect in your home!

[@SharonWilliamson-qd6rx]

They bundle our mugs here. One cute one, two ugly or small one's, and one larger price. 👍💕

[@RosalieCarusone]

The basket is from a store in Manchester Vermont called Baskerville it’s no longer there but it was a nice shop with lots of different sizes of baskets and some linens and gifts.

[@kayk8123]

This video was a shout out for everyone! A mug and primitive Santa for Julie, those chickens made me think of Donna and the sweet lil brass horn for Danielle. Yay! Also, I did not know there was a strawberry pie plate!!

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Thank you! Yes some of my favorite ladies.

[@loricrozier4348]

Our local thrift store uses Google lens to set their prices. They do not understand that is asking prices for things, not what resellers actually make. Crazy high prices. Goodwill is the worst I no longer shop there.

[@DreamaC2023]

😂 Oh my goodness Julie... I thought of you today. Went junkin with my Mom. A little thrift store that supports a food pantry... Guess what I got for $1.50.... A BUTTER BELL, just like yours 🎉😂 Same color n everything

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Oh gosh! Yay! I’m excited for you.

[@kathyeason7463]

I love going along watching you thrift . You do fine good stuff . Have a great weekend 😀 ❤

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Thanks so much 😁

[@sonjaholder4930]

I would have to pick up that spode and the chickens. Love the santa and the Basketville basket was a good price and they are usually well made. I see them online for way more than that.

[@Lindasharp-ut4gy]

Yes, my Goodwill in Oak Ridge, Tennessee is awfully proud of their stuff!

[@mariesherer4029]

Basketville’s history can be traced back to 1842 in Vermont. Basketville manufactured baskets in Vermont for over 150 years and in China since 1978. The store in Putney, Vermont closed a few years ago. You found a perfect piece of the type of baskets they made back in the day.

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Thank you!!

[@loveangelprinces1]

Happy Friday Julie. I am the 747 Like on your Thriftmas Day 8 Video. The new Mason jar was a steal. Great Job! Your Pantry looks so organize and pretty. Thomas the train for your grandson is adorable. It touches my heart how much you love your family. I am the same way with my family. Yesterday for the 1st time I became " Un Angel de Esperanza." "An Angel of Hope." for the children of StJude fighting Cancer. I dedicated to the Honor of my parents. Both are in Heaven and my Papi birthday is on 12.12.2023. They did not pass away from Cancer, but my husband Mom did from Breast Cancer. We both lost our mom at the age of 17-year young. We thank God for the time we had them. My father saw me graduate from 2 colleges and gave me away on our wedding. We are celebrating 26 years wedding anniversary on 12.21.2023. 1st day of Winter. It was a beautiful Sunny day full of Love/Amor. I know are Mami were watching us from Heaven and when our only daughter was born my parents, and her Daddy mom was watching too. Thank You God for choosing them to be our wonderful loving parents. 💝💖💝

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Thank you for this 😊

[@dorisezell4413]

It seems the higher retail prices get. The higher thrifting is getting.

[@elizabethavery8209]

Great haul! I went to 4 Goodwill stores today in 3 different towns.I noticed that prices have gone up. There is nothing in the stores less than $1.99! I always look for the 50% off color of the week. My score today was a glass cake pedestal with a glass dome for $6.99! I put my reading glasses on to check the price! Have a wonderful weekend!

[@annettegroseclose4022]

I wish our Goodwills would do the percent off sales I see many people say they have at their local Goodwills. Ours in the triad area of North Carolina don't do that. Disappointing.

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Oh wow! That’s what I’m looking for!

[@carlamaeder2660]

My stores don’t even do color discount days. They used to do number discount days, but stopped y to hat sometime ago😢

[@lisettebatista9348]

I agree prices are crazy at goodwill recently

[@colettecatania8923]

Basketville in Putney VT is a wonderful basket company! I have been there many times. Julie, you would have lost your mind in there, lol! Unfortunately, they closed in 1996! You found a little piece of history.

[@ellendewkett4657]

Basketville is pretty well known, I think. I have a gathering basket from there.that my mother used to bring in veggies from the garden. It started out the same color as yours, but through use and age, it has darkened and acquired some “patina.”

[@mom4966]

Last week I got a Baskerville picnic basket for $5 !!!! Perfect condition ❤

[@kelliebroom2214]

Lovely Spode pie plate ❤

[@ephemeraphilesbytomi]

Our Goodwill prices are crazy too. I see items that I know are currently for sale at $🌲 for $1.25 each marked at $3-5 each.

[@belindapalmer3132]

It’s a shame that all the prices have gone up it’s the same here in Australia loved your video and haul Julie oh and the sweet Thomas the Tank engine carry box for your little Grandson . My Grandson is 12 going on 13 and I just adore him how lucky we are to have wonderful families ❤ Thankyou again for Thriftmas 🎄🎅🏻

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Thank you! I’m definitely blessed.

[@jeannethelen3604]

I bought that same clock at my GW for 3.99!!!! Sticker shock indeed!!! GW's prices are out of control sometimes....especially since they get these items for free.

[@susanscholle9754]

I am in Charlotte, NC and I have been watching you for a while. I love how you style things. You have such a good eye. I am loving Thriftmus.

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Oh thank you!

[@emplantzlove388]

What a fun trip! Thanks for taking us a long 😊

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@cassandracraig2072]

I love your thrifting videos ....so calming and your house is just beautiful ❤️

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Thank you!!

[@bettyloar2238]

Love. Shopping with you

[@lindalawrence5975]

Julie, great video. You found some exceptional pieces. Our Goodwills are the same way regarding pricing. Don’t know what they are thinking when they price items that are donated to them. I have absolutely left things on the shelves that I would have otherwise purchased because of the high prices. Looking forward to your walk through. Hope you and your family have a great weekend. Take care. Cookie in Mandeville Louisiana

[@anitablair6396]

You just don’t know how wonderful it is to go Thrifting with you. thank you so much…..♥️

[@patdrenowatz8773]

Thank YOU! So many I would have carried home😂😂

[@annhinson5670]

Thrift store and antique store are two different animals. Generally, an antique store does it's homework/research on an item so they can tell the customer about it. More work involved, so a little higher price.

[@robinwebb2160]

Happy shopping along with you 😊 And yes, you're so right about the prices. Sad to say that a lot of it will end up in a landfill 😕 I have to say the vignette on and above your piano is stunning 😍 Magazine worthy❣️

[@user-te3ng3wn8w]

Nice video! I just found a primitive Santa too! lol

[@maryhalliday7739]

Love the basket and small jars. Our thrift stores have gotten crazy with the prices also. We don't have goodwill close by to us..I so wish they did, I would stay in trouble. Loving your videos and seeing what goodies you find and how you use it.

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Thank you!!

[@heidilewis3093]

Oh my gosh ,Julie that tub of fabric was such a good deal! I am a quilter and fabric goes for 11 to 13 dollars a yard. I want to reach out and grab that. But if you are not a sewer I can see why you left it behind or I think you did. Guess I better finish watching your video.

[@TheresaBP57]

😮omg my son loved Thomas the tank and had one of those, he is 30yr old know 😢❤

[@user-xe2lk6qb4k]

I enjoyed watching you thrift your styling ideas are so helpful merry Christmas

[@dianamitchell7479]

Oh I wish that Spode pie plate was mine

[@leighannwilliford1044]

Great haul!!!

[@dorisezell4413]

I even got excited when I seen a train😉

[@ThrilledThrifter]

So sweet!

[@judywilliamson2068]

Your basket, made in Vermont, is a quality one. I would be hesitant to stain it, however, it’ll still be wonderful. There aren’t many American made baskets. When you find one, they generally have a good deal more value than baskets from overseas, we all know how expensive those are becoming.

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Thank you!

[@lauragarrette9220]

Hi Julie 💓 thanks again for taking us along trifting always so much fun 😊 and love ur little picnic basket 🧺 so cute always Laura xoxo ❤

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Thanks so much 😊

[@joannewendt1792]

Spendier than our Goodwills here in the PNW

[@shirleyjohnston1256]

If it brings you Joy and can afford it, buy it and enjoy it!

[@conniemckelva8407]

Idk which GW that was, but their prices were ridiculous. I love that Spode plate.

[@andrearussell9755]

Awesome shopping adventure. Thank you for sharing.. Putney baskets are very nice, I have a couple. Some of the vintage baskets can be worth some money. PS I love how you incorporate each piece into your home. 😊

[@debby891]

Wow some of the prices were very high. I buying canning jars at yard sales too as I use them for making primitive style items with vintage labels. I loved the little brown cheese crock you picked up with the cover and bale. They’re perfect for qtips, etc in the bathroom. , love the wreath!

[@gaylebrodt676]

What a wonderful video Julie! Loved it all! I agree with you totally that sometimes Goodwill needs to calm down a bit on their pricing, lol especially since the items are donated! I have no idea why that clock would be priced that high. I love the wreath and I especially love how you styled it! Everything you found is just beautiful! Thank you so much! 💖

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@gloriannakeener8497]

Our Goodwills in Colorado are out of sight!!!

[@rhondaflanders4386]

Hi Julie! On my thrift trips I've been looking for a nice inexpensive patchwork quilt for Mama for Christmas (don't worry, she's not into computers so she won't see this 😊). I found a nice one, but it's not thick enough to be warm. When you pulled out those wooden chickens I immediately thought of Donna (delightfully southern). My brain has been zipping all over the place this year. But we'll see you tomorrow and you have a nice day ❤!

[@susieqsevenable]

Don't stain that little basket! The woven ribbon strips are beautiful. Maybe lightly stain the top and handle!

[@Jean-sv6kk]

Love the basket and Santa. GOD BLESS 🙏💜

[@heididepotter8136]

That brand of the mug is realy good, Julie. ACROPAL, well known in Europe I love the reeth and the basket. See you tomorrow XXX

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Thank you!

[@marymcghee3023]

Love it

[@kristineolsen477]

Another fun video. I love where you hung the wooden Santa. Just perfect! Your friend Kristine

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Thank you!

[@patty237]

Thanks for the video…

[@robinalexander8429]

The white restaurant ware mug you picked up is what is referred to as a buffalo style mug, hefty, larger handle, you can get 2 fingers sometimes 3 depending on the handle size. My husband does sell advertising on coffee mugs in small mom and pop restaurants, and he has for over 30 years, the smaller, less hefty diner mug is more popular because they say they don't waste as much coffee, but many restaurants still prefer the buffalo because coffee does stay hot longer. the decanter lid should have been taped on if it was ill fitting... I think we have all been there with broken items

[@user-te3ng3wn8w]

Oh and Julie, those prices at goodwill!!! Ours have gone up also! It’s crazy!!

[@cherylbee9899]

The key word there was DONATED. Their prices are high and they get them for free. When shopping at an antique store they are paying and reselling them

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Absolutely!

[@williamtaylor2412]

love this

[@barbarapeterson8030]

HAPPY HOLIDAYS Julie, family, and fur babies. Hope you feel better soon. STTB

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Thank you so much!

[@lindasoderberg9477]

TIP: with a repurposing wreath use a hair dryer on cool low setting to get out dust, loose stuff, and potential "visitors". I live lidded baskets with hinged handles that can be moved to the sides to create a flat top and potential riser

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Thank you! Great tip!

[@annmariebeckerman1529]

Very well made baskets …you scored well …very famous business in Vermont👍

[@susanscholle9754]

Also, i wirk for GoodWork Staffing and we are a division of Goodwill Industries of the Souhthen Piedmont (in NC). Pleas keep in mind all Goodwills have their own mission in their region. All of our sales go to family sustainable employment. I di agree the prices in your video are crazy. What the what? $15 bucks for a clock???

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Yeah $15 was cray cray!!

[@LindaFoyle]

Thank you Julie, yes, I have broken things in goodwill stores before too, it’s not uncommon, so much stuff around, and oh yes, prices are to high, many times, I’m just looking, happy holidays to you and family 🎄🥰❤️☮️🐾have a great weekend 🎉

[@terryciavola5962]

Basketville is a store in Vermont. So many beautiful baskets, wicker chairs etc. Had one in MA but it moved to Vermont. I miss it a lot. Nice haul. Love the Primitive Santa! 🎅🏻

[@ThrilledThrifter]

Thank you!

[@wandamyers2690]

I totally would've gotten the wooden primitive santa 🎅

[@neenafellows6199]

Yes, GW getting a little greedy. It seems that way at most of them. Pretty gutsie for donated free items

[@karens3209]

Our prices in Michigan have gone up a smaller amount than Julie is showing us. Remember we are helping people with our purchase. I believe that flippers may have caused the higher prices. Goodwill knows this and could be trying to slow them down. I don’t mean to offend anyone, I have done this with some items I have found for flea market/ craft shows. Most of my items are handmade, but there are times I can’t make it for what I pay.
