How much do you think you made with this jar. I think you paid way too much. Goodwill isnt going to put anything of great value in these jars. They know whats good and what isnt.

[@ThelmaThrift]

Thanks for watching- the video- I’ve lost count of my profit margin,however remember value is subjective and is determined by niche markets. I urge you to browse eBay SOLD listings to see what I mean.

I have to say I've been spending a lot of time down in Ann arbor at the U of M university hospital. In their main hallway back towards the elevator/ escalators there is a display of art shadow boxes filled with lovely collages (im dyslexic so excuse the spelling errors) Of costume jewelry from all ages/eras. I have a cookie tin filled with odds and ends of costume jewelry from passed away family that I've been thinking of maybe designing and making one of my own. Some are abstract and some are themed and some are deconstructed amd turned into animals/butterflies you name it. I've always been partial to koi and water lilies or lotus. Against deep blue felt, it might turn out cute. There is always a way to turn a profit from things if you don't mind putting in a bit of effort. I bought few rolls of coins from an older lady who needed paper money (the store was giving her grief about counting change) The roll of quarters had 2 silver quarters in it and the roll of dimes had several silver dimes. But the 4 rolls of pennies were full of wheat pennies and even 3 Indian head pennies. You never know when you might find treasures. I kind of expect to find washers and slugs in the quarter roll lol.

Hello Thelma, I just wanted to say I stumbled upon your videos only a couple of days ago and I’ve been watching them almost continuously. Even while I’m cooking I have you on my phone. I absolutely love what you do and I adore you already. I’m from Melbourne Australia and I will continue to watch you that’s for sure. So grateful you have made so many videos and I have so much to catch up on. Many blessings to you. Gigi xx

I remember when these jewelry jars used to sell for $5.99, $6.99, and $7.99 at Goodwill. I couldn’t imagine spending $150.00 and not getting more precious metals… I’m glad that you are excited though… I would have been really upset, LOL, especially since things aren’t selling as well right now. I would definitely stick with the pawn shops, as I have control over what I want. ❤

[@ThelmaThrift]

I hear ya, I only remember them as low as $25.00 I left two behind this week, because they want $140.00 and it looked like half of it was hair accessories. thanks for watching the channel.

I bought a box 163 pieces of antique and vintage jewelry from the son of a woman who had quite the collection. She had died 20 years prior to me buying it and he had stored her things before organizing and selling. I paid $300 and ended up selling pieces for over $3000 profit. I still have some of the pieces I couldn't bear to part with! Other pieces I wish I had kept but I needed the money and having an allergy to nickel, I cannot wear most of it. A good rule of thumb for parting with awesome pieces is to remind yourself that you're not married to them.

Exactly- what a wonderful experience that must have been. All the best to you. Thank You for watching and sharing your insight. ❤️💎♥️

i did this regularly at my local goodwills. about 7-10 years ago… literally every week i would buy 3-6. for an average of $25-40 and almost every time you got decent real gold rings, coins, and maid a few hundred on each. it slowly slowed down over the years people caught on. jar prices went up, and they started taking a closer look at what went into them. nowadays it’s a tru gamble but this used to by extremely profitable

Yes, indeed and they used to be 20 to 30 dollars as well. Moreover they are becoming quite elusive.

[@ThelmaThrift]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@MissJenni5309]

You mentioned you wished the sterling silver ring on your finger would look silver again. I wear SS on almost all my fingers. Lol If you get hot water, about 1\4C, line a small dish, cup, bowl, whatever you have, with aluminum foil, shiny shiny side up, add 1-2Tblsp vinegar, tsp baking soda, stir... Set your ring in it. You will literally see it shine up. For small grooves can use soft tooth brush. Rinse and towel dry. :) This works on all my jewelry, even gold. But if you have stones, look up the type of stone you have before using this method. There are a handful that can't be introduced to vinegar.

Wow that’s a lot of money! I’m feeling blessed now. I was complaining about getting my jewelry jars for $40. For $150 you shouldn’t have anything broken. I also never shop at Goodwill because of there high prices on everything and they don’t do much if anything for the community🤨

[@Gothlite-i1l]

Brava to you for thrifting! I used to shop at Goodwill, too, until a couple of years ago when I discovered the Big Cheeses at GW make somewhere between $500 thousand and 1 million dollars per year (depending on what internet search you do). I also found out that employees with disabilities are often paid less than minimum wage (as low as 22 cents per hour), whistleblowers have been fired, and safety issues have led to tragedy. Now my fave thrift store is The Humane Society Thrift Store, the fave of all our town which voted it the Best Thrift Store - even against GW! We also have thrift stores for hospice, Teen Challenge, and other local charities. I try to be even more ETHICAL about where my little money goes.

[@silvergirl7810]

I’m new to you’re fun channel - I don’t know if someone stated this before but- the sterling silver beaded necklaces should never be dipped into solution or cleaned to a shine. If they are Native American (which I would error on the side that they are) you want to keep that tarnished patina. The most I would do is take a silver shine cloth and carefully go over the main parts that you want to enhance like the center of each bead leaving the darker patina down by the sides. Hope this makes sense. (My grandmother owned a Native American jewelry store and my mom owned a jewelry store - I went on to do jewelry as well so it’s fun to see what you’re getting from these jars 🫙- happy hunting 💎🥰)
