For those of us living in thrifting deserts, passing on a pink depression era console bowl is unbearable. However, I understand your rationale as a business owner living in the land of plenty!😂

Indeed, Kathleen.....I'm blessed to live here in the north east in the most densely populated state in the USA filled with old houses and old stuff. I'm going to liquidate all of the pink console bowls I currently have in storage before I start to replenish the lot.

I am constantly amazed at the amount of the great treasures resellers can find in PA. But another area where resellers find lots of treasures in Las Vegas! I didn’t think that would be such a great place for thrifting and estate sales…but seems that it is. I follow some LV resellers and it blows my mind the amount really good to fantastic finds that come their way...and many of them are from the area’s Goodwill’s. I just looked it up and the greater Las Vegas area has 17 Goodwills…17 stores! and they’re all relatively close together. I live in suburban Md, in the DC metro area. Goodwill of Greater Washington, DC, lists 21 stores. Sounds like a lot, but that covers a much bigger area (DC, MD, VA) and traffic here is of the horrible sort. Im sure other parts of the US can be great too…I just don’t know where those parts might be.

Scott, for those poor souls that did not grow up with sitting reading books in Wing Back chairs, we’ll let me tell you, they were so comfortable, as a kid , we used to throw our legs over the arms of the chair , strategically pretend we were sitting at the beach enjoying our Summers, but plowing through School Summer Reading lists. Yes, I mean I have a certificate given by my peers from Wing Back Chair Society, upholstered in Any brocade, velvet, even leather in my Father’s Library. They are the most comfortable chairs, all size humans would agree. Scott, that price was $4.99, what delicious, memories to pass up. Not to mention that fireplace was beyond Devine, would could work that into any decor! That aqua vase is the real Mc Coy, I have collected pastel Mc Coy pottery and that was a great buy, the color is extremely rare! 👏👏👏👏nice work! 0:00

YES!! I was just remembering my grandparents red leather Wingback. When we visited in the summer I would read books from their shelf in it. And a matching ottoman❤️🌟

My two favorites from this escapade are the big banana boat and the black Cambridge plates. Dreamy. Definitely was swooning over the radio, and the base of the floor lamp marriage. Now I may just go sit awhile in my old green wing chair with nice hot coffee (no pumpkin spice).

i have a chair like that. my daughter hates it. if i were to get a new one, it would be just like it again just a different color. mine is taupe and maroon, but it's faded. looks more rose colored now. it's slightly velvet. i love it.

Great show again! Dishes bring so memories especially coffee cups. I think of my Dad drinking his coffee everytime l see a green jadite fireking coffee cup and my Grandma Memmott when l see a shiny orange Fire King coffee cup. Do you think of any family members when see a certain type of dish? Cool dishes this time!

I live outside of Philly and a employee told me that they dont put anything over $30 on the floor. So u know where the good Goodwills r in Philly because u always find vintage and i dont see it, where i am, oh well. Your just lucky 😉
@gailcathey56423 ай бұрын
I think the Goodwills in the city seem better stocked than the Goodwills in the suburbs of Philly ever are. But it is also the amount of time Scott puts into it. He is out there every day.
