Hi Karen! As a former Goodwill employee in your area, I want to thank you for bringing much good energy and publicity to them. I was an Employment Specialist - we worked with clients with disabilities to help them find and learn competitive jobs that matched their skill sets. Proceeds from the stores help finance these efforts as well as many other job development programs in the organization.

[@lavenderclothesline]

You are so welcome!

[@carltonthepug]

Is it true only 1/8 of the proceeds go into missions tho?

[@peggypullizzi1272]

Not quite - as reported in the 2021-2022 annual report for my area goodwill, the stores generated 63.2 million in sales and 62 million was spent on Mission Services. While there are other revenue streams, the stores support the services.

[@judyspears2603]

My mother had the twelve days of Christmas glasses, and when the whole family gathered for Christmas Eve, she would have us sing the song and whichever glass you had, you had to sing that verse. So fun! Thanks for the memory.

[@patriciarobinson5909]

I met a guy in Goodwill! How many people can say that! What a find! 😍😂

[@lavenderclothesline]

Best find ever! 😁👍

[@KellyB3]

“Does Goodwill love a good cat?! Yes they do!!” 😂♥️

[@brendaclement5081]

I'm so happy for You and Roger, yall are beautiful people

[@peddlinpatricks]

OMGoodness that punched tin chandelier is everything!!!

[@reneebrown4169]

Rogerseems like such a sweetheart ❤

[@carolbuckner]

Love your voice,makes watching you and Roger so wonderful! I do not miss an episode, I’m a thrifter from tn. Just retired to do full time. Having the the time of my life! Keep inspiring!

[@sharonburnside235]

Fruit topiary caught my eye too

[@galehadley5617]

Hi.. Pottery barn pillow covers could be used for a pet bed with a foam insert.

[@vansmom123]

Girl, I’m amazed at your ability to keep organized. 60 years old and started reselling in the last 10 years. My whole house is crazy!

[@9mccloud]

Lol I know the feeling. I have decided to slow down until I get most of my space back ❤

[@joytoyouandme4593]

I was feeling this way after one year of reselling, so I rented a storage space for my goods. Will build an addition to my house in a few years, a garage with apartment over it. Then my goods can be back home.

[@AMYBIERHAUS]

I would have purchased those Cat Bookends from you, chip and all! Do I love a good cat, yes I do! 😊 ~ Amy 😍

[@elizabethmusso5946]

Like the ear-notch they give community cats when they’ve been fixed. Pretty realistic actually. 😺

[@christineprescott2417]

Happy Easter Karen! Want you to know that when my Husband and I go into the Thrift Store...We always say "Let's Go And Get What's Ours!" You are a Joy...Thank you for taking the time to make your videos and share them with all of us ❤

[@janiceallard2108]

Hi Karen - The glasses from the Twelve Days of Christmas ... they sell much better individually. A complete set doesn't sell for enough to warrant the buy-in price, but I sold them individually about a year ago for $9.95 each. There's always someone looking to buy just one that has been broken from their own set. I actually had all twelve, but still sold them individually to get more of a profit. All twelve sold in the month up to Christmas in 2020 or 2021.

[@deedled4879]

Ack! Good to know. I was just about to write Karen to tell her I found the only one she was missing just the other day and didn’t pick it up:)

[@annsmith4739]

I love the frog to

[@barbaragodfrey1402]

You two are great to watch. ❤

[@marleybedford8628]

You met a “gorgeous” man so you went out and got what’s yours. Yipp, yipp, yippee!!!🥳

[@Stephanie-ur5fm]

Move all your additional stuff from dining room to garage and then you can put your desk and shipping items into the dining room. That way living room is still a relaxing no clutter area.

[@lavenderclothesline]

I wouldn’t put breakables ( new mirrors, quartz countertop, glass lights)in the garage because things are always happening in there (removing and replacing the lawn mower, weedwacker, leaf blower etc) spray painting items etc

[@jankilbourn930]

Love that you say our home…..

[@LindaKayHolevas]

I love how much you & Roger laugh. I am just so happy for the 2 of you! 😊❤😊

[@katscocloset]

We were just at that Goodwill for our 1st time at the bins Saturday. You are right we got a lot of nice hard goods at the store. It was overall at great road trip. Thanks for all your advice.

[@joyceheld4354]

Is there any guy that's sweeter than Roger ? He has the best smile and giggle. Seems like a " Go with the flow " guy. I think you have a keeper..for sure ! 😉😊

[@Mychanneltoday24]

Hi Karen. Before you decide on the tub, look at Signature Hardware. We paid less than $3000 and our tub is massive. My 5’11” husband fits very well. I believe it’s also free shipping. A lot of the luxury builders in our area suggested them. Much love ❤️ I have no idea if they service Pennsylvania. We are in TX

[@josephinegiuffrida2802]

Enjoy thrifting with you today. Do you need that particular thrifting dresser it is very large perhaps a table and use the storage underneath with bins

[@wizphotogirl]

Doggy Pillow!

[@jhanes3791]

That is what I was thinking or maybe a kitty pillow pad.

[@kimpm2117]

I have the 12 days of Christmas glasses. They belonged to my parents. Probably 70’s/80’s. So much deja vu today, black Asian trinket box, I still have mine, lol Love the cat bookends, too much $. Love the pillow covers, they are farmhouse or boho style maybe. Shoes are $12.99 here in Canada too. I did find new with tags/stickers Clark’s ladies shoes yesterday however it was senior day so 25% off.

[@tweedandfeathers6302]

The Impromptu bowl by Ben Seibel is MCM and can be worth money depending on the piece and the design. The "atomic" designs are worth more.

[@CollaborativeDog]

The cheese grater! I love it. So many kitchen items that I refuse to buy retail. 😂

[@lindasoderberg9477]

Love kitchen gadgets!

[@jhanes3791]

Me, too. Why buy Pyrex or bowls when thrift store have them in excellent condition!!

[@pookieontop]

My husband and I were blessed to build a custom home in 2020. The footprint looked tiny. Don’t worry about the size looking too small. Of course, make sure the dimensions match your plans. But it seeming too small is mostly an illusion.

[@brianhenry2385]

Crowed Parking at Lancaster Goodwill: some might say you’ve done your part over promoting your favorite GW and you brought the crowd with you. 🙂🙂

[@brianhenry2385]

Actually I think Content Creators do affect reselling, but in a more balanced way then is often criticized. Crowded Stores are simply the ebb and flow of the business. At best, Content Creators can create competition to source items, but it’s just as likely their videos are creating a renewed interest in Buyers to make an e-commerce purchase for a used item, since not all viewers are Resellers.

[@annsmith4739]

Hi Karen happy Easter love you giving us update on your home an your lovely Roger ,lv Ann uk 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧❤️❤️❤️

[@kadmta1]

Love the tub🤗💕

[@PKr25-R17]

Oh gosh I love my Brooks sneakers!! I’m going to guess the Pottery Barn throw pillowcases will sell quickly.

[@cornfieldcloset]

I'm so happy for you and Roger. He seems like such a nice and caring man. Can't wait to see the wedding photos!

[@debbied3116]

Hi Karen and Roger!! The builder's are moving right along. It is nice you keep us posted as to where they are now and how much progress they have made. I look forward to your next video! Happy Easter!!

[@peddlinpatricks]

I probably would have bought the 12 days of Christmas and sold separately. Many people may be missing one or two because of breakage. That is if course if the price was right. Congratulations in the house and upcoming nuptials!

[@ldm7770]

Textured pillow cases can be described as "Textured woven rug throw-pillow case tufted" and can be quite popular 🙂 You have a couple white ones in your living room! 😃

[@nrivera4380]

And they can be used on the floor.

[@brianhenry2385]

Shipping Station Relocation: you could always shift the Shipping Station Downstairs (at least temporarily) rather then upset your kitchen. Since you pull to pack from downstairs anyway, it wouldn’t upset your process flow as much, though not having a view while you pack might seem a less enjoyable. It’s nice to work in the sunshine when you can. For us in the winter gray of the Pacific Northwest a lack of sun can get a person down….

[@LindaKayHolevas]

I am also in the PNW (Portland) & I can relate so much to your comment! I just spent 2 weeks in San Diego & it was difficult to come home to the rain. I know it’s what keeps our part of the world green, but I sure am ready for Spring!!

[@rosemarysthyme6087]

Make sure you inspect that tub! Hate to see something wrong with it at installation

[@christineprescott2417]

Also, Love Gorham!! They were here in RI for Decades...We see many Gorham Pieces still when we thrift shop here.

[@mrssanders8047]

Wow! Time doesn't stand still, does it? Excited to see the finished project! Take care, be well!😊

[@southernmermaid2526]

Hi Karen & Roger and happy Easter ! 🌸🐰✝️🌼🦋 Jeans to the wedding. 🤣 I love it. I let my senior prom date wear jeans, haven’t thought about that in a while. I can hear the excitement for life in both of your voices ! 💜💞💚💘💙

[@LindaFoyle]

Roger and Karen, everything is so exciting! and so happy for you both❤️ Having a ceremony in your new property would be so adorable, and new videos to come, happy,happy, happy 🤗 thank you.

[@andreacolwell6975]

Just use the pillow cases as throw pillows for your couch.

[@pinadevos]

I always look forward to your hardgoods shopping video’s. Not only because of the realy nice things you find but also because of the person you are. I know you do not have the time for that, but I could watch these kind of video’s every day. Succes on the renovations. You also struck gold with Roger, and he with you. 🤗I live far away in the Netherlands, but I am a fan. 👍🏻😃

[@phylliserlandson1286]

The pillow covers are maybe for floor or rec room/ tv watching couches (?)

[@valeriebarris4825]

Karen, THE GARAGE is perfect for your packing station. The wall to the left of your beautiful tub.

[@lavenderclothesline]

My garage is very dirty 😂

[@evelynealfieri9396]

Happy Easter to you and Roger ! Enjoy your Day 🤗 Great Walkthrough and Haul !

[@maureenmarcil7786]

Believe it or not that fruit tree is made by Waterford and goes for pretty good money, I found one at Goodwill last year along with two topiaries.

[@karenkelly961]

Ben Seibel can be collectible. And it is mid-century modern. His Impromptu by Iroquois is a popular pattern.

[@breathofhome6315]

I would move the bathroom vanity into the living room(put a scarf over the top to cover the sinks) then you could use the dining room for office and shipping(after moving some of the other items to the garage or basement). That's my way of thinking.

[@hannahchante]

You two are adorable 💕💕

[@taracat7723]

Such fun..so excited for all your great stuff happening..addition, wedding. It's so great, you met at a Goodwill.

[@indialove88]

I love the movie reference 😂

[@seaside2001]

They are floor pillows. You can always convert the garage into workspace. Lot of people do that.

[@Doloreskoro]

Love your podcast ❤

[@gabriela5894]

I wait every Sunday for your video. 😊

[@lavenderclothesline]

Don’t forget Wednesdays! 😂

[@lindasoderberg9477]

Love the tub! Single drape panels make good pillow cover fabric.

[@joytoyouandme4593]

I ventured over to a new goodwill last week (new to me that is), I hit the jackpot, so much good stuff. I love seeing the stages of your addition, I worked as a renovation mortgage counselor for years, so construction gets me excited. Love the tub, good to know you can find quality items off Amazon like that.

[@rubyus7332]

Congrats with your new move with you life! Happy for you both! 😍

[@Talian1]

Hello Karen. So, your foundation wall seems like it is going up to your house right where the floor would start. So, just as your current house shows some of the foundations, so will this wall. This is why you have steps up to the back of your office because the ground is lower than your ground floor, I'm guessing to give room for your basement. I can see that your yard is sloping down and away from your house, which is good. No one wants rain running toward your house.

[@donnadesko675]

I look forward to your videos!! I am so happy you and Rodger found each other. I love seeing the house updates. Living our best life.

[@brianhenry2385]

Your “New England” really comes out when you say: radiator. LOL

[@tracythomas343]

Seems like the pillow cases would be good for floor pillows. 🤷‍♀️

[@brianhenry2385]

Heated Tub: when we lived in Japan we had a heated Ofuro (tub) with a recirc pump. It stayed as warm as you wanted for as long as you wanted.

[@Jojospyder]

I dont know if that is 600 sq ft...get your tape measure out. I have built a home from ground up ..and boy, there were many mistakes. One wall was built 3 ft shorter so my kichen and dining room lost a lot of space. But by the time I caught it ...too late. I'm so excited for yall. and my tub isn't nearly as long as yours I am short and I like my feet to touch the other end or I feel like Im going to go under water....🤣

[@maggiehattan3799]

Happy Easter! Glad to see you and Roger keeping your sense of humor through the remodel! You’re both amazing 🥰♥️😊

[@sherrilynnsecondhandgemz8989]

Loving the house updates. Of course always love the reselling part but the house updates are so exciting. I am over the moon happy for you and Roger and also Mellissa and Bare! So Blessed! I don't typically comment on youtube videos because typically I have it on my TV which is why I comment more on Instagram.

[@kathyaldridge7171]

Hi Karen, interesting video! The addition is coming along! You mentioned kiddingly(?) about putting steps leading up to the tub. We have steps leading up to our whirlpool tub which was installed when the house was built back in the mid-90s. Big mistake because once one gets to the top step it is a long step down into the tub. Best to straddle a narrow wall rather than risk a tumble into the tub! I am seriously thinking about having those steps removed and the flooring redone. 😊

[@beckymaus4614]

Don't know a lot about building, but I know that you want the ground next to your house to be higher so the moisture will drain away.

[@darlenemchenry1104]

Love the Pottery Barn pillow covers! 🩶

[@vaguely8020]

Thank you for including your home addition info on your channel! Your channel continues to be enjoyable to watch!!

[@dianeheyn719]

The pillow cases have a very Boho look

[@4itGrow]

Happy Easter. Your voice is very calming.

[@donnathomas8612]

I would love to say hi & thank you in Goodwill. It would be like a celebrity sighting for me! I started my eBay store 2.5 years ago bcs of you, and it is financing my move from Hawaii to France this summer! So... Thank you Karen for helping my dream come true!

[@deborahbavas6514]

I give you snaps! I could not live with the whole house in disarray! Can not wait to see everything finished!

[@joysbaking]

Glad your opening and checking out your new items for the house . My sister in law bought a new counter and the counter was broken and the tub didn't have the jets in it like they were supposed to ( and paid for) . Its going to be beautiful!

[@NanaColeen]

God bless you both🐰✝ Happy Easter!

[@kadmta1]

Roger is always a trooper🤗.. what he does for us viewers🤗💕🙏🏼

[@pattihuesken9583]

Hey Karen, so nice to see you and Roger working and having fun together. I’ve been involved with at least 4 building projects and a dad who was a building contractor. I always tell people to get a prospective on size when you’re at the foundation level, picture a TV in the far corner. If it appears small in your mind, you can see the area is a larger space then you thought. Otherwise the space seems small. Hope that helps. ♥️

[@lizlagle671]

The rug pillow covers are abt adding texture to the deadly dull fashion of gray and beige EVERYTHING. A decor Hail-Mary.

[@fimoize]

I'm obsessed with how Roger pronounces "stone". Looking forward to seeing your build progress.🇮🇪☘️

[@artfullytonistreasures1347]

UGH, it's so hard functioning during construction!! The end result will be amazing though!!

[@renovatingspaces7067]

Never put your work in your living space. You will never feel separation

[@karen.asecondchance]

Great video and your renovation is coming along. I'm sure you're excited 😊

[@eliciaburton4862]

You are full of fun and light!

[@SherryNerreau]

So much fun seeing what you bought and what is happening with the renovation Karen. They are really moving along!

[@jimmyraysorrells8415]

Love this channel!

[@joycehalstead]

Love the video ❤❤❤

[@jackiegerarde9938]

Love the floor pillow covers!

[@pamdiffee5628]

Roger is such a good sport!

[@deborahcostello8214]

Have built many houses- it's amazing how small the foundation and then the decking look. I've always thought the area was too small but when the wall joists go up, the house seems larger, not smaller. Don't understand that process but it always works.

[@susank2463]

Those PB pillow covers will sell. Great combo of tailored and funky.

[@maryhernandez-pv1mg]

Karen this was fun

[@vaguely8020]

Roger I’d a good sport! 🛁

[@mesor1312]

Loving the addition. Can't wait to see it all done. Still lots of room in your backyard for many BBQs.

[@lesacaden3085]

I have that exact fruit topiary. Pull it out every Christmas. I love it, it is Waterford!

[@Lulu5771]

I love Roger’s answer: I’m wearing jeans, what are you wearing? I’ll just match what you’re wearing ! Great answer ❤❤❤❤❤. Great video Karen, I can’t get over Goodwill’s prices. Do you get many estate sales in your area? And yard sale season is starting soon if not already. I’m sure prices are better for your profit margins. Have a great week ! ❤

[@rosasauceda6041]

Hi Karen, maybe your shipping dresser would work in your basement?

[@amylyons4529]

I think the Pottery Barn pieces could be dog beds or dog bed covers.

[@lolitabonita08]

suggestion, put the sofas and chairs and other large items in a storage unit, so u have space...or reorganize the garage...or buy a garden shed...
