Hi Melissa! Been following you only about a month, but love your channel! You are just the sweetest! I'm watching a video from a year ago, where you did michaels grab bag. You had a bunches of planner. I am a planner junkie lol. 'Caught my eye💜 Hope you and your family have a great holidays

[@fiddlegirl79]

Colleges usually have graduations in May and December, so even the 2021 graduation cap things will still be useful this year. Not as many graduates in December as May, but it still happens (I graduated in Dec of 03).

[@kristiphillips7783]

Your fur baby is very active in this video...cracking me up! I think YOU are to active for him....LOL! Adorable!!! Great boxes!!!! Yes, put together some lots and sell local. You deserve something back once in a while as you donate so much and share with family. Crafters will snatch it all up!!! Thanks for another fun video!!!

[@stevelamore4178]

Hello

[@usainengland]

Melissa, when I lived in a children’s home, I loved getting new school supplies like the other kids. I hope the folks at the Ark can give your kits to individuals. A nice little gift for someone!

[@TheCheapChick]

I actually donated all the school stuff to my client who is a teacher for her school

[@ethomancer]

So I used to work at that Michael’s as a late night stocking person. It’s super crazy at that store tbh

[@ReneeIsWeird]

Those planners are such an amazing deal! I use a planner everyday, I wish I were able to get these boxes in my area cause I want a planner! 🥺

[@TheCheapChick]

My client is going to take them all for her school plus all the other school stuff tomorrow.

[@barbaracilley8200]

You get a planner at Dollar Tree or Dollar General for $1.00. Not as nice as Melissa’s but still pretty nice.

[@jeandavid2655]

I love watching you go thru those boxes. I find it relaxing. You are such a generous person. 😍🐣😘🐣🐥

[@TheCheapChick]

Awwwwww thanks so much!

[@NanaColeen]

So many fun things. I love your comments, the look on your face is so great. And paco's face, when he is watching you is priceless!🥰

[@gerdafrizzell6966]

Hi Anna

[@victoriawalker3891]

Hi Melissa great video great haul the little tins are cute they would be good for hair brush, makeup, ink pens and pencils, wood spoon and soup spoons. And the big tins for trash can or umbrellas the little planters are $20.00 dollars.. I love all the flowers

[@TheCheapChick]

Hey! Thanks so much! So glad you enjoyed it. I am going to keep those tins.

Lots of good things in the first box! Useful and pretty! The larger cans would be great little trash cans for bedrooms or bathrooms!

[@loridom5375]

I loved the first box best, all those flowers and the cabbage box planters. Planners are very nice also. Someone is going to get some nice items.

[@lisassparklescove]

What wonderful boxs 📦 i would well buy one of them planners from you 😀😄😉😊😜

[@Melisa_CPP_WAP]

U could take all the prettiest flower picks n the extra greenery and put a nice bunch in each of the small galvanized pots n use em as decor either inside or outside. U could put one on each side of ur door or somethin....I would kill for one of those planners lol

[@ambercroff1649]

List those planners on market place. You could make many people Happy Planners! I was a December grad 2x, so there is still a market for grad items that say 2021. So fun. I have never found a Michael's grab bag, but I can live vicariously through you!

[@delgateresa]

Some of the graduation cap decorations can even be framed or on the wall like inspirational quotes ...if they stick that is

[@wilmaburrgooch981]

Little pick flowers good to make grave pieces for vase.

[@nc27bunny]

I'd love the planner with the craft stuff on front

[@reviewswithsue]

Hi Melissa I started watching your video when mine was uploading that took forever 😂 so came back to see the rest. We got some of the same things love all the little school kits and planners. I didn’t get any this year 😔 -always enjoy watching your videos 😘

[@TheCheapChick]

These were pretty good boxes. Only downside was the 2021 graduation stuff

[@lyzzylabelle]

Omg the smile Paco had on his face after u spilled flowers all over him was priceless🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@alanbirkner1958]

The wood shapes can be painted, collaged, or stained. I use them for earrings, decorations, and more. Tina

[@aussiegirl5050]

My favorites are the planners and the bottles of hand soap.

[@zumbaqween33]

Repurposing for a cheap price......love it....hope you can do more of these

[@sandrabamber6726]

Youcould put the flowers in ne of the zinc buckets as a display. The wooden shapes can be painted and glittered to make Christmas garlands. wow the mandelas and planners, wish I lived closer cause I'd love to shop Michaels. You are so inspirational and good hearted. Love to you and your family.

[@TheCheapChick]

Thank you so very much!

[@martha171]

Thank You for posting yesterday that they were having them today! I was able to get 3 from my store. Lots of back to school stuff and flowers. Some multiples but only a few.

[@TheCheapChick]

I'm so happy to share the info. Glad you got some

[@stevelamore4178]

Hello, how are you doing?

[@angelcross1997]

Paco was getting interested in some of the items 🤣 So cute. Looks like you got some decent stuff. Thanks for the info on these as well; I actually had never heard of them, believe it or not haha

[@TheCheapChick]

I was surprised he was active for this one for awhile. Lol. These were fun to open.

[@tianamartinez8189]

The wax melts can be used as air fresheners for your vehicle too. No warmer needed. Just use the mason jar salt and pepper shakers found at the dollar stores, place a few cubes in, screw the lid back on and ta dahhhh diy car air freshener. 😊

[@TheCheapChick]

Oh wow! Thanks for the tip!

[@dthomp06]

I wish my locals did the boxes. I got two bags. One had a million of these wood components. I loved that first box. So cool. I can’t believe they put current planners in. Crazy. My second bag had a few planners but they were out of date.

[@gingermatthews1012]

love all the flowers , may have to go check out micheals

[@tiachandler5350]

Those planners are amazing me and My.daughter use them to.keep.up with everything

[@marisolwheeler7873]

Awesome planners!! Overall great mystery boxes, great deals!!

[@MsLaurajudd]

I love that you are thinking about your local schools. What a great haul.

[@berlaloup1675]

You are so sweet to spend your time and money to get those boxes from Michaels, then donate most of it to other people. Hope you make a little money back with the items you decide to sell. I wish I lived closer to you, I can teach you some easy crafting with some of the things you got. You can take some of those faux florals and make a bouquet, then put it in one of those tin buckets. Some of those little canvases would be great to donate to a school's art teacher or some kind of after school program or even a senior center. Really enjoy all your videos, thanks for sharing. 😊

[@koi.in.pond3149]

Nice boxes ! :) The decor was very nice and those planners ! They are not cheap . Thank you for donating and helping out the community.

[@Lesleymehnert]

Melissa, you can buy the separate stick on numbers that could be stuck over the 1 in 21,

[@cherriberri7161]

Omg! I’m jelly! My Michael’s never had these grabbags! Lucky! Fun unboxing! 💖💖💖

[@rachelh1247]

I never thought mine did until I went early one morning right when they opened

[@sarahthomas3945]

With the planners, I buy them on sale and just white out the dates and put my own, that way I can use them for the time I need

[@soarinpanda8walker563]

Definitely get well over $5.You could cut the 2021 off the bottom of the black bows ,they would still work.The flowers could go into some of the decorative pails.TFS

Hello Kathleen

[@colleenrepoli2709]

Found you today. I really enjoyed your video. I love that you donate to teachers!!! They need it. My daughter spends soooo much money out of pocket every year. She teaches high school, I can't even imaging what elementary teachers spend. Awesome video.

[@TheCheapChick]

I'm so happy you enjoyed the video! That really means so much to me. I love being able to donate stuff.

[@valerietong4867]

Awesome score love the planners we don't get them here in New Zealand

[@karlarussell3555]

Just as an aside, I knew a couple of people who also received a ton of graduation or 2021 stuff in their grab bags, or they purchased it from the clearance table. Especially the bows, they are using them to take pictures, so they can remember the year. Doesn't really work for the "class of " part, but for just the bows with the year, it makes a cute picture. My neighbor actually used a 2021 bow to take a picture of her lemon tree and her guava tree, so that she can document their yearly growth.

[@TheCheapChick]

Oh that's neat. I actually donated all that stuff.

[@patriciamesa1066]

Well the bows you can paint over the numbers and use it for Halloween

[@cbjk2929]

The greenery alone from the boxes is work what you paid for the box!those are earring bases! And yes you could sell the Happy planners, the are almost $20 each!

[@RandiCuteAngel]

I love all of your videos, and the ones with your dad and mom. You make me laugh on my bad days. Hugs from 🇳🇴

[@everykindnessandblessinghq]

U are correct...I WOULD love SO many of those things, especially the small wooden thinsg, which look like a lot of earring options but as a crafter I could do tons of things with them! Ur so lucky cuz the grab bags I managed to get were mostly planners n flowers. Apparently, all of the bags with the types of items u received were already gone! 😞 Not to mention...u got boxes which had approximately 3x the amount of items I rec'd in each of my bags. Hopefully next time I can make it there earlier and get more variety of items cuz I also donate a lot of items, especially to teachers! Those school boxes, with school supplies, would be excellent to give to teachers, for kids in their classes who may be low-income n cannot afford all the supplies they need. Love the vids my fellow Melissa ☺8

[@TheCheapChick]

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I ended up donating all the school stuff and planners to my teacher client for her school. Yes you need to get there fast cause alot of people know when they come out and are there when they open.

[@deed421]

Aw paco I just want to snuggle with him he is so sweet ❤️🐾❤️🐾.. I didn’t know about these boxes until you shared them .

[@judyeuller7602]

There are winter graduations. The 2021 graduate stuff could be used for that.

[@Josh01815]

I been thinking of going to Michaels soon, and here you are with a video! 😆How convenient!👏🏼🤘🏼

[@TheCheapChick]

These boxes come out only once in awhile and sell out quickly. But follow the freebie guy on Instagram or fb and he always gives the heads up when they are coming out.
