I feel an honorable mention is needed for Paco, who was invisible under all the fluff of his bed, save for some ears😂

[@angandhercatemma1984]

Paco is the cutest 😂🥰

[@Sunshine33333]

OMG! You're right, I had to stop and look, that was so funny, thank you for the morning giggle!!

[@rebenaq4506]

If I got items from thrift, I would wash it again regardless. Save yourself, time, effort and money and don't wash them (better they have tags on). They are still a bargain at $20 for 10 or $15 for 10. ❤❤❤ Ps you will be amazed at how many younger people buy older items and style it up or upcycle them!

[@TheCheapChick]

I've already washed 3/4 of them. Just wanted to get that thrift store smell off of them. I don't mind.

[@rainorchids]

@@TheCheapChick I agree the stuff that still had tags on probably could have just for been febrezed people are mostly likely going to wash them before they wear them anyway. But I would probably wash them all too tho😂

[@traceytheisen8067]

@@TheCheapChick Get a really good steamer - super cheap online - it sanitizes the garments so you don't need to wash. Plus, most people are sensitive to the deterrent perfumes. Plus, steaming is super fast.

64 thousand subscribers, wow your channel sky rocketed! I remember you celebrating your 8,000 subs. Congrats on your good fortune. You are one of the Lucky ducks! I love watching your videos. You are so real and it’s refreshing.

[@dianestauffer1458]

Melissa, you really don’t need to wash all those clothes, just run through dryer-whoever buys them will launder them anyway-❤️🌹

[@kitkatmonroe3871]

You keep things interesting Melissa. Don't work too hard. Hope your sales are great.

[@Natalie.Forestell]

Awesome haul! Just to help, so you don't have to re-sort the sizes, as you're going through the box you could throw each item into pre-set piles starting at x-small and up to the highest sizes. At least that way when they go in the wash they're already sorted. 💙

[@carolinez8634]

Love your videos. Size 1 or 2 for most brands mean 1X and 2X. They thought it is better than 2XL . As if we don't know we're in a plus size. 😂

[@DawnFLee]

I'm not sure if it was mentioned or not but... brands like Chico's have "boutique" sizes, so you will have to look up what 1, 2, 3 etc mean in normal sizes. Torrid, a plus sized brand of Hot Topic also uses the same kind of sizing.

[@elizabethholliday4458]

Melisa. You do. A. Fabulous. Job. I've. Water. You. Do. Congrats. To. You. Liz

[@cindyfahey1711]

I love your long video's, you always brighten my day. Keep up the great work !

[@NanaColeen]

😁I loved this video Melissa😍...You hit a gold mine, but I understand the "getting them ready" to sell is going to take time and effort and 🤑. I know you can do what ever you want, and I can not wait to find out. Thank you so much putting a smile on my face🤩

[@TheCheapChick]

Thank you so very much! So glad you enjoyed it.

[@deniseelmer1975]

Do a part two it will still be a mystery we wont know which items will be in the boxes we buy. It will give us more of a idea what we might get

[@Freedom-67]

Chicos is an expensive brand… also wow 😯 that’s a lot of clothes! Lol 😂 but alot were dressy type work/office . Big market for that at least. You should do well on posh mark 😃

[@blancatravels]

That wasn't an unboxing as much as a workout 🤣🤣🤣 But really good fun to watch!

[@TheCheapChick]

Omg that was for sure a workout. Lol. But fun with so much stuff. Thought the box would never end.

[@lazyhomebody1356]

When I saw the title I thought, "She's going to get a workout just holding all those teeshirts up to the camera!"

[@Lesleymehnert]

I wouldn’t wash and dry everything, cos the charity shop does that. I’d just steam them lol. Mostly people who buy them would wash them before they wear them anyway lol x

[@qutiepie4107]

Wow. I have a lot of those brands in my closet. I need an XL though. When Goodwill gets too many donations, all that stuff goes to the Goodwill Bins. Clothing (and shoes/purses/undies/sweaters, coats) are piled in big bins and sell for an average of $1.50 per pound. I think Illinois has no bins, but Indiana has three.

[@TheCheapChick]

We used to have one here but it closed down unfortunately. There was not that many xl but I will have a few boxes with them.

[@shannonbarr8407]

Chico's I'm pretty sure is a plus size brand! So 1 would be an XL if i remember correctly. I could be wrong though on sizing.

[@sherylrausch4303]

Chicos is not plus size Size 0 is like 2-4. 1 is 8-10. 2 is 12-14. 3 is 16-18 it’s a psychological sizing 😊

[@ThePOOKIE319]

Harbor freight has lifters at great prices!!!!

[@ScottishLass1]

Great haul. If I lived in your neighbourhood I would be your best customer. Kindest regards to your Mum and Dad. Kx . .

[@janebain3402]

Really hate to say this because i adore you! But i thought those clothes we're a crop of crap, and not many people would want them! You can say your going to make money of this but i think not! Sorry if I've upset you!x🇬🇧🌻🇬🇧

[@justine5588]

Hey Melissa 😊 👋 There were a lot of higher end brand names in that box ! You scored. I'm gonna go check out your poshmark 😁

[@Danielleb723]

I'm not sure if you one or not but maybe you need to invest in a hand truck to move around your purchases. I think harbor freight has good deals and they have ones that fold dowb. I was literally typing this and just heard you talk about getting a dolly. Oh well I figured I would still add the comment. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us.

[@TheCheapChick]

You are so right. I've been thinking about getting one. Especially for all the flea market stuff to get it in the car.

[@LuuA_Forever]

Umgee is one of my favorite brands! It’s a boutique brand and it’s pretty expensive. Atleast in the boutiques I happen to frequent haha!

[@cherriberri7161]

Huge haul! Wow! Excellent purchase! I love watching this fun haul! Just wondering if some clothes are clean only what will you do? I guess maybe hand wash? Most look machine washable thank heavens! I’m sure you’ll make a decent profit, especially if you plan on doing Posh mystery boxes or size lots, people seem to buying more and more online nowadays, gas prices are crazy! Fingers crossed you make a very nice profit Melissa 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

[@disneygal200016]

Lucky, that reminds me of the time I was looking to buy jeans for my son at Christmas time. I grabbed a nice pair of jeans and saw it said LUCKY in the fly area. I told my husband I refused to buy pants, that whenever he took them off was because he was LUCKY!

[@pinkelefant4ever]

He IS lucky to have you!

[@taramcbrearty4657]

Wow what a box!!! I do the neck test aswell!! 😂 it does work tho! Great video!! 🇮🇪☘💜💜💜

[@virginiareaves4944]

Great box. You will have to remove all the tags if you are gonna launder all of them, because tags will turn to mush. If you had a steamer you could sanitize them without removing tags. Walmart sells several different types. I bought mine off fb market place.

[@andreaprettie1388]

I think you did great with your haul quite the variety of items to sell good for you

[@gailrhodes7771]

Great buy!!! I would wash and just let dry like 5 min and take out and hang on hangars!! Use Gain it has a long lasting good smell!! Then divide out how your going to sell. My suggestion is Posh Mark!! That Ralph Lauren Shirt in the beginning I have that and paid $89.00. I think that was on sale!! Be smart and make lots of money!!!!!! Thanks for making me smile today!!!!!😊

[@Lesleymehnert]

Have you got a clothes steamer, a hand held one. The woman that used to do my ironing had one and it was much quicker than doing it with an iron

[@TheCheapChick]

Oh I'm not ironing. Lol. I don't iron my own stuff.

[@arriettyclock]

Awesome video! I'm sure you will have no problem reselling!🙂👍

[@LilMsNat]

Jessica Simpson is one of my all around favorite brands. I love the fit and sytles!

[@mlgauss60435]

Alfani, Charter Club, Karen Scott, and a couple more that I forgot already (LOL) are from Macy's. I used to work there and recognized the names. You definitely got a great deal!

[@PurpleMairead]

The JC Penney one, could it be Penneys? Which is what Primark is called in Ireland. That would explain the European sizing 38

[@oi812NM]

I love that first shirt! Great deal! I love ❤️ your videos.❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@nanaof5110]

Wow, what a load of shirts. I watch you on the TV and I can't comment. I'm on the PC now. I'm in the same city as you, but in a wheelchair and can't get out much. Do you ever mention which Flea Markets you usually set up at and when? If my husband is off, I can go out in the wheelchair and shop. Please keep the videos coming. I LOVE them.

I sell at the beach blvd flea market. Hopefully will get to do one in early Oct. Just to hot now.

Cute tops😎❤

[@Lesleymehnert]

you’ve got some really nice tops, I haven’t seen one bad one yet, you could do really well at the flea market.

[@ashleyd5117]

It's awesome that you're not only sorting by size but also by age grouping for style!!

[@julianaschmidt8315]

You got some really cute items! You are a true inspiration! I recently started Poshmark and posting a lot of clothing after watching your videos. You have many great things in your store! Thank you for inspiring all of us..

[@dawnmsmith4949]

Melissa I'm sure so many people have said this but getting a steamer is much better than washing and drying all of These Clothe's number one you're gonna sanitize it number 2 it'll save on the the clothing breakdown number 3 it's a lot faster and number 4 the wrinkles will come out instead of giving you more by putting in the washer dryer. That being said this was really fun and so much clothing so cool I'll be really interested when everything comes out how many items of each size you wound up with with. For the number sizing it's basically size 4/6 S, 8/10 M, 12/14 L, 16/18 XL.. O usually means one size fits most. 1 is 1x, 2 is 2x & 3 is 3x.. but not always. Line up shoulder edge to shoulder edge of known sizes to double check. Good luck and keep these wonderful videos coming

[@hoosiermom47]

Was watching this video last night and the first two shirts you pulled out are EXACTLY like several shirts that I have & wear and I love them 🥰

[@elishiamariewilson8289]

Your videos are so fun to watch. I love your spunky personality and how you explain everything..❤️

[@SweetLadyK420]

If you ever have a crazy box this size again, I recommend rolling the box on all sides as you go... that way, you might not have to tug as hard to get them all out 😂 great haul tho! I'd wear a lot of them, if they'd fit lol 😆😉

[@grebenrA]

I would love to get my hands on a box like that, where all the items were vintage 70's and 80's clothes. I would be in absolute heaven.

[@sunsetskies837]

Wow such a great deal for that many items. You should make your money back plus profit too, even if you donate some of them. You can try Dawn Dishwashing detergent to remove stains, pour on stains and let soap sink in for bit before washing, it will even remove set in stains most of the time. Thanks for all you do for us!!

[@beckyrushing912]

Chico's 2 is usually about a large (size 12). You can find their sizing chart and how their clothes run on their site. Ann Taylor is a good brand, as well. Worthington is a JCPenney brand. Talbot's is a good brand and can be pricey. New Direction I've seen at Belk. Ana is a brand from JCPenney, as well.

[@BeckyA59]

As a more "mature" viewer I thought there were a lot of cute tops!

[@aletachristopherson7847]

I would learn brands and not worry so much about what they were selling for in thrift store. Ann Taylor, for Example, is career wear and not...older.

I would put 5 pieces of clothes, a couple matching nail polishes and two pieces of the jewelry. 25.00 variety box ~ lol 🌻

[@claudiacavazos9036]

Melissa, Save yourself the time of washing everything and get a fabric sanitizer Tide and Febreze sell one. So much quicker items can keep tags and you’ll know they were sanitized. Loving the video content 🥰

[@marisueavery1315]

New Direction is Belk. Croft and Barrow is Kohls. Worthigton is Penney.

[@PurpleReign1401]

Those large khaki shorts look like kids school uniform shorts. Make sure you charge enough to get your money back plus all the work you have to put in plus the fees that Poshmark are going to charge. Just because we know you got a deal doesn’t mean you need to practically be giving stuff away. 💜💜💜💜

[@insaneprincess1]

I think these would sell really well at the flea market. It suits the age range perfectly.

[@karenmcdaniel4600]

Can't wait for the rest of the box. Some of the tops were really cute, but a nice variety. Paco was so cute all you could see were his ears, not interested in the box , no food lol. Wish we could meet in person.

[@cooperfreckles]

You got some nice shirts! We use to have these yellow containers to put unwanted clothes. But no more. Someone said they made it look like we were giving to charity when it was actually a company that bundles and sells clothes to many different places. They even charged charity’s to buy a bundle. Not sure if it was all true.

[@EvaH2923]

This was a fun one! I loved to see what ya got and seeing how many brands I knew and from what store lol.

Extra small would be 2-4, Small would be 6-8, Medium would be 10-12, Large would be 16-18. Extra large would be 18-20. I wear an Extra Large and usually can wear 18's or 20's if they run small.

[@jennigee51]

I’m interested in what you call shirts. In the U.K., we call the button front tops which men wear shirts, anything which a woman wears an has a button front is a blouse, then both sexes wear T-shirts, and almost everything else that women wear are called tops…tunic tops, crop tops long sleeved tops, three quarter sleeved tops, then jumpers or sweaters, and cardigans. Flippin’ ‘eck, we do have a load of different names for clothing!

[@krystalclark5390]

Please do I part 2...it's very interesting and entertaining to see what's in the box

[@TheCheapChick]

Unfortunately there will be no part to already washing everything.

[@marygad999]

We have a lot of clothes. Actually, every thing is abundant. Clothes are constantly being reproduced. This world is full of abundance. Most have grown up with a lack mind set they may not see the abundance. Most being me. I think I thought my father not selfish, but now I think he may have been selfish. I just didn't see iT, when, he was walking the earth. They, say that like attracts like and my mother was selfish, so he had to be too. Crazy things we learn about our parents after they die. I think, it better to learn while they are alive but "dead" has it's benefits too.

Looks like a lot of those fabrics shouldn’t go in the dryer, need to be line dried to prevent damage/shrinking. Most wash/sanitize used clothing before wearing. Like someone else said, maybe steaming the garments.

[@deleila_charlie2068]

People prefer tags over washing them. Because people will wash the clothes at home anyways. So you've put effort and money into something that's actually redundant. I work at a thrift store and we only wash the really dirty ones that have brands. Otherwise we donate the dirty clothes and rest is steamed.
