I don’t mind the footage of your quick run through the aisles. I now know I’m not alone. 😂

[@NANETTEMILLER-s8w]

Love the shelf cant stop laughing over the depression light 😅 hilarious as a collector im rolling

[@jackrowe5571]

Mom had one of those battleship Kirbys and Grandma had a jet engine Hoovers. My dog is named Hoover because she immediately sucks up anything that hits the floor.

My grandmother put evaporated milk in her coffee. I do once in a while and it is delicious. Condensed milk for baking and desserts, yummy.

[@IamSnowbird]

I took your advice about looking in all areas. Today I was looking through the Christmas department and found a beautiful brass triple french horn candle holder with a holly sprig on it. Sprig came off and I had my prize for $3.99.

Hi Heather!

[@LB-ht1qk]

So glad you picked up the oak shelf! It's beautiful. I have a lawyer's bookcase-5 glass front sections that stack but, not with a top like you found. I have never seen a vanity with the glass tile decoration and never knew there was a holder for condensed milk! Thanks for taking the time to stop and show us!

[@JudiPiccolella-h8e]

He who hesitates is lost! My mom used to say this!

[@AnnHinrichs-j8z]

I so enjoy you and your videos, you always make me laugh. And I always learn something! I had never seen the condescend milk holder? I get the two mixed up to 😉

[@HeatherMarieGibbs]

Hello Scott and everyone

[@Nancy_Schmancy]

People used to put sweetened condensed milk in their coffee. That must have been a long time ago, because I have never known anyone to do that except for my in-laws, who are from Spain. It's still a thing over there.

[@huskeyfosterfail4980]

Some would go to great lengths for the Kirby

[@nancypisko491]

My cat knocks the tooth paste over lol

[@julsjewels3185]

Pop a witch on the old portrait and you have a Halloween decoration.

[@justynejaniszewski4626]

I always mix up condensed and evaporated milk. Yesterday after seeing your haul, I put some autumn decor on my mantle. Well today Maxwell has already knocked a couple figurines over/ off. Fortunately they’re just resin. I use museum putty for the breakables.

[@allymonte7295]

Another fantastic video, Scott. Boy, I loved the irons/bookends and that shelf!

[@deb7518]

I did not know about those evaporated milk holders.

[@lisalamp3537]

Remodeling the kitchen of our 2 story 1850s kitchen. Blue walls and white distressed cabinets. I am having blue glass backslash put in. Exact same color that was on that piece of furniture. 😊

[@elderlypoodle9181]

Yes!! I overlook what you call “Foxing” 🙌🏻 Yes. In praise of Industrial Designers 🙏🏻

[@surpriseitsus9622]

I love the soon to be shelf and that single candle holder. ❤

[@donna8212]

So they’d put the condensed milk can in the holder to cover the can? “I almost had to lie down”, that made me laugh 😆. Enjoy the rest of your night Scott. 😉🕊️

[@danielulz1640]

Evaporated.

[@catherinebyrne8628]

Hello, that was a fun video..I liked the single 7.99 candlestick...😢❤

[@es4242]

I would flip that black glass bowl and use it for veggies and dip.

[@Trojan4u]

I'm on the hunt for irons..video gave me great bookend solution. ❤

[@susanstefanovich6804]

I found a 1930’s glass inkwell in the kitchen area of my go to honey hole

[@Gardenwitch1954]

I have to lie down leaving the Limoges

[@GretchenGetsIt]

I was gifted an antique solid wood 5 tier stackable bookcase with fold up style glass front on each tier when an old acquaintance moved out of state. I love it and have not seen another one in my area since. That old furniture was built to last .

Hi Scott

[@rickeydonald4756]

I don’t hear you mentioning the awaiting ‘cart vultures’ anymore. Maybe, there are other places for them to roost now. I gave up looking for vintage T-shirts at the Goodwill. I figured the good ones never made it our of the back room. Even my St. Vincent de Paul store model has changed. Most donations never make it to the sales floor. They are boxed up by the workers and trucked off by volunteer drivers to other areas. I have noticed over the last 2 years the entire thrifting store frenzy has changed. I am no longer a part of the reselling community to get the scoop. I can not even find an auction house to handle my estate treasures because I sold my property awhile back. They want real estate, not things. A 50 year collection doesn’t even raise an interest. I offered local history and that didn’t even get their mojo going. I’ll throw my valuables in a rented dumpster before I’ll donate them. Peace and my rant.

[@kathleenworkman3884]

Golly I’m sorry it’s come to that for you. There are still folks like me who value your collections. You’ve preserved history and I thank you. I hope you can find a kindred spirit to take custody of your treasures when the time comes.

[@judibess6173]

Oh my eyes! Id put that oak shelf in the kitchen over the stove to keep my green glass canisters corraled with the salt 'n pepper range set😀

[@lisalamp3537]

LOVE old photos! My hallway is full. My sister thinks it's creepy.

[@kimkuks6370]

Let’s see your goodies…

[@a.curiouscat7729]

I just LOVE the funny cat picture. I would hang it on my wall!! 😅

[@danielulz1640]

Grandma called evaporated milk Pet milk and sweetened condensed milk Magnolia milk (brand names).

[@surpriseitsus9622]

Smart ❤

[@robloxgoofs1916]

Time for a new black cat. Todays video jad pne and the other day too. Halloweens coming too.

[@beiderbecke1927]

My love affair with that burgundy forties lamp has deepened. I've found that with the right shade, you can mix them with all kinds of interiors. And I love that EAPG handled fruit compote. That would be lovely as a Thanksgiving center piece with fruit and nuts and such. I love that oak shelf top, I'm in constant need of places to put books, and I'd make good use of that. That was quick, but fun. Hmm, that sounds a bit iffy, but thanks!

[@yoopermary]

Beautiful landscape. I'm glad the foxing didn't discourage you. The old Kirby was missing its business end, the brush bar assembly, but even without it the aesthetics of its design are still so apparent and you stopped for a moment to admire it. I loved that. You can still pick up old Kirby parts for a song and honestly a Kirby will last you a lifetime. My friend bought me one of those popular new brands of vacuum cleaners, thinking it would be easier to use because of its light weight but I still haul out the old Kirby.

[@diannealice3601]

The lamp is beautiful 👍

[@Bluelight176]

The Limoges antique B&H condensed milk holder was nice,,,,,,,the two Antique iron painted ironers are also nice,,,,thanks Scott

[@adelaidesocki3595]

Goodwill Halloween station 😛😌🥳

[@melisablack7920]

❤❤❤ Love the shelf!

[@EchoamysDoghouse]

I have the top of a bookcase that my great grandfather made. The rest of the bookcase was much flimsier and fell apart. Someday I will make a bookcase and use his top for it.

[@kathleenworkman3884]

Sorry about your allergies. I sympathize. It’s always a pleasure going thrifting with you in the land of plenty. I laughed with you about the kitty print. Can’t tell you how many times my Milly jumped up on the side table, looked at me, took her paw and swipe! She knocked whatever was on the table off onto the floor just like a toddler clears the high chair tray. LOL 😂❤ Yep, I too confuse evaporated and condensed milk. I must check my recipe twice! Sheesh! Who’s the idiot who ruined that depression glass tea cup and saucer. You’re a lot more tolerant than I. *sigh*

[@marybethsmith6458]

That was disgusting seeing what they did to that creamer and plate. I am not going to say what I would like to do to the person who did that.

[@bonniegraybill9158]

❤

[@SuzanneBaruch]

The pair of floral lamps was *fantastic!* The fact there were two would have made me buy them. 11:28 And I'm strangely undisturbed by the teacup/saucer conversion into a night light. I think it was charming. It would be sweet tucked into a dark corner of a vintage kitchen, or maybe placed on the kitchen table. But the framed picture of the outdoor scene got my attention. I hope you put it into your eBay store, because I'd definitely bid on that!

[@karenslater9371]

I agree about the teacup light !

[@elderlypoodle9181]

I’m furious you left that candlestick holder of my entire dreams 🫨

[@kpgunther]

@elderlypoodle9181 I am a bit sad too, it was stunning!

[@es4242]

Are you referring to the green depression era

[@elderlypoodle9181]

@@es4242 I was looking at the clear one. It resembled a giant hood ornament. 🏆

[@es4242]

Yes I agree! People would buy just one especially someone with limited space. It’s beautiful.

[@ninasgriccia4652]

Yes! I loved that candlestick! The handles! I love EAPG and I collect singles!!!!
