Money Was Just Lying On the Ground...

blue willow platter! 11:10

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Ooooh! I missed it!

[@harleykittin5232]

These are the kind of yard sale videos i like. I have left many a yard sale because the there wasn't something worth buying or the prices were high. You are showing what really happens sometimes. Not every yard sale is a home run

[@TexasGalTreasures]

So true!! I wish they were, but sometimes it's a big ol' PASS! :)

[@bevsnyder9574]

Margaret spray the inside of the smelly purse with Odo ban. It works very well on any odor. It’s great stuff!

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Thanks for the tip!

[@MeCB2012]

Quilted shams / small quilts at 20:20 and near the end, the tall aqua blue vase ? 22:49

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Ah! I missed that vase! It was beautiful! Thank you!

[@damomajanet]

The boudoir lamps were lovely while you were looking at the spoons. I would have grabbed them quick

[@TexasGalTreasures]

I didn't even notice them until I was watching back! I'd have grabbed them for sure.

[@hayneska]

Wondering if those were Quimper plates at 17:42, and what they were priced at. Fun video, as always.

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Oooh! I missed those!

[@briansvlog2007]

On one of your recent yard sale vids you picked up a square leather Patricia Nash bag like a shoulder or crossbody but left it behind, gulp! $$$

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Ah!!! Thank you for letting me know!

[@pennybowen2725]

Always look at the jewelry better, I have found 14k and 925 silver at yard sales for .50 cents and $1.00

[@MeCB2012]

I carry my loupe and my black light flash lite with me.

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Good idea!! I generally do as well, but these were a bit too pricy (at the estate sale). I've found some of my favorite pieces at garage sales :)

[@morphamorpha6194]

I do like this format. There is an easy way to remove the stink from those purses, it takes time and a little space. Put 2 inches of clean unscented clumping clay kitty litter (the bulk litter from Petco works great) in the bottom of a lidded storage bin. Add a handful of baking soda and stir it in. Level the litter mix and place a sheet of white tissue paper or newsprint on top of the litter. Put the purses in the bin and close the lid. You can put some of the litter mixture inside a really odiferous purse if you need to. Leave it for a couple of weeks, then check the purses for odor. If they still smell, put them back in the bin and check after another week or two. Repeat until the odor is gone. It sometimes takes months, but it works. This method is also good for removing smoke odor, mustiness, perfume, etc. and also works for clothing, books and paper goods. I often forget to check back, then remember a few months later, and the odor is gone. This is also a good way to store soft goods in a humid climate to prevent mustiness. I saw it right before you stepped over it and in my head was trying to figure out how to ship it.

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Good idea for the smell!! Thank you!!

[@diane-b2z]

About the purses, try putting them in a closed plastic tub with several open boxes of baking soda or garden charcoal. Leave them in for some weeks. Baking Soda or charcoal usually do a good job of removing odors.

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Great tip!

[@throughthemoondoor4956]

Love your shopping videos! The longer the better ☺️

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Glad you like them!

[@kristibrown48]

On The coach bag what does the tag look like?

[@jochildress5003]

I wonder if sprinkling a boatload of baking soda in the purses before you put them in the freezer for 30 days would remove the odor. Like for mildew.

[@TexasGalTreasures]

That's a good idea!!

[@harleykittin5232]

Can i make a recommendation? Be on the look out for hand carved wooden birds. They sell bery well for me.

[@avengingmime]

I like these shopalong videos; it's like garage saleing with a friend 🛒 👭

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Glad you like them!

[@desertfairychickres4021]

Thank you!

[@TexasGalTreasures]

@desertfairychickres4021, Thank you so much!

[@octobird1]

10:59 might have been one of those rubber face dolls. I think they are ugly but big money!

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Ooooh! They are!!

[@dukerme]

Thanks for another great video! Keep them coming!

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Thanks, will do!

[@andreabradley5837]

I can usually guess the time within 15 minutes. Look at how the sun is hitting, listen to the birds, the shadows, all of it. Those kids don't need no stinking clock! 😅

[@TexasGalTreasures]

That's so cool!

[@jojothriftyteacher]

I was just growing through my profit pile and found a bunch of higher brand purses. I did a quick video and took pics so I can list them asap!

[@TexasGalTreasures]

That is awesome!

[@damomajanet]

Lol I had a boss who always said we were stepping over dollars to pick up pennies

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Yes!! That's how it felt!!

[@catherinethompson2525]

Shipping would be really alot to ship and hard to package I think

[@pinkpigletparker8703]

There really is nothing more disgusting than going through a dead man's stuff. Society has lost their way.

[@andreabradley5837]

I guess it depends on who the dead man is. I pack for a moving company and yes, I've had to pack dead people's stuff. It's actually hard on me emotionally. I believe that objects carry energy. I really try to respect the spirit of the person.

[@harleykittin5232]

I would rather see someone purchase the stuff than it end up on a landfill. I would think the previous owner would think tbat too

[@pinkpigletparker8703]

@@andreabradley5837 That's good.

[@pinkpigletparker8703]

@@harleykittin5232 Actually when I go I would like my stuff to bring joy to another person. However when I think about a bunch of strangers going through my mother's personal belongings that is when it is disgusting. I wish people would maybe choose to do auctions or flea market and just leave the name "estate" out of it. There really is nothing wrong with it otherwise as long as people don't know where it came from. Maybe it's a legal thing they have to do but it's not cool to the deceased.

[@jojothriftyteacher]

I love Hobo brand bags. I take things that have a smell and put it in a medium trash bag and pour baking soda in and out all over the bag. I tie it up and toss it it around and put it out in the sun. I did that with a vintage leather purse and a nightgown that smelled (one like smoke even after washing it) and kept it outside in the sun for 2 weeks tossing it around....smell was gone!

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Thanks for sharing!! I'll have to try that!!

[@andreabradley5837]

All of these work great, even just sunshine. I have read that to get smells out of polyester to use cheap vodka in the wash cycle. I guess you could use Grey Goose if you're really rich.

[@catherinethompson2525]

Very hard when kids are at am estate sale They usually don't let them act out at the sales I go to here in California

[@juliebeasley1111]

Gangsta Gal Treasures!

[@TexasGalTreasures]

😆😆😆

[@whatanitemare]

As you're entering the estate sale, the woman tells you everything IS 50% OFF! There are a few items I would have picked up at that price. I think Valiro means "value" in Italian. Maybe that's why you can't find a maker or listing? LOL

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Oh! I missed that!

[@kristastine3983]

I have a quick question. Do you feel like when you go to these garage sales you have to buy something? I always feel bad if I leave without buying.

[@TexasGalTreasures]

I used to, but not so much anymore! :)

[@Jupefires]

When I source I don’t insinuate that I am buying something for myself if I don’t intend to keep it.

[@TexasGalTreasures]

I generally only say I'm going to keep it if that's my intention. :)

[@Jupefires]

💕💕

[@charlottedonell2453]

I really can't stand it when people don't control their pet's (the one's with 2 legs and the one's with 4 legs !) ...maybe that sounds mean but if I wanted to be jumped on by your dog's or annoyed by your children, I would have stayed home! 😂

[@TexasGalTreasures]

I get that!

[@MeCB2012]

If you can find a way to get it into a closed in carbon monoxide area, it will remove all odors.

[@TexasGalTreasures]

@ElainePohl, :) Thank you very much!! :)

[@ceecee5389]

Were there sold comps on the caterpillar? Wondering if you really left money on the ground. Thanks for sharing!

[@catherinethompson2525]

I had that leather Coach hobo bag exactly and sold it on Poshmark Because for me i need cross bodies Amen out and about

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Oh! That's good to know. I was going back and forth about listing it

[@andreabradley5837]

Don't pass up a good leather crossbody!

[@nitamay3534]

I'm a new subscriber. I love thrifting! I have a KZbin channel as well, but I don't sell anything.

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Hey @nitamay3534, Thanks so much for watching!

[@nicolebranstetter5065]

Does the purse smell like the devil's lettuce? We have had good luck with the disc odor remover things from walmart.

[@TexasGalTreasures]

I can't quite place the odor. It's pretty awful

[@sarahfillingame8802]

I appreciate you not recording people and their children ❤

[@TexasGalTreasures]

@sarahfillingame8802, :) Thank you very much!! :)

[@Tammy-xs8ic]

As a nurse we use those chair cushions in wheelchairs to avoid decubitis ulcers aka bed sores. They are in all the wheelchairs in the nursing homes.

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Oh! I'll bet that's helpful for them!!

[@csnow7190]

Not Zuni made. Machine made. Definitely not worth $60
