Do you think that GW buys the Target stuff as bulk or does Target give it to GW for a writeoff?

[@1wayvintage]

@@Chicago48 It's a great question! I've seen at least 4 GW's in our area carry Target Salvage, often not at great price. 😕

Me too, Connie! I believe we have 3 available in our store currently! They are gorgeous! 🌸💐🌹

[@luciollelsa]

Wow! You are so lucky to have such a well organized thrift shop, here in Québec there are not so much treasures so cheap. You have good taste and made a great haul, as for the guess over or under 100$, I thought it's more like 200$, to be honest when you asked you weren't finish shopping, but it must of been pretty close. The Murano glass set was my absolute favourite, wich of course is already sold!

[@1wayvintage]

We are lucky with so many great thrifts in our area. The Murano glasses were beautiful, and were such a fun treasure hunt. Thanks for the kind comments. We appreciate you! 😃💕👍

The flowered plate + shade are for a glass jar candle. You found a lot of beautiful treasures!! I guessed at least $200. Wish we had great thrift stores like that one! I am subscribing.

[@1wayvintage]

[@georgiaswangin9225]

The Goodwill in my area starts at 25% off 50% off and then 75% off and you can hardly get anything at 75% off because as soon as the store opens, they start pulling it from the shelves

[@1wayvintage]

That sounds frustrating! I wish we had dollar days here, too, but we dont!

@@1wayvintage right iv done that many times

[@AS-ql8ri]

I have shopped and donated to Goodwill for years. I was also surprised at the prices UNTIL I started working for Goodwill helping people find jobs. The career preparation tools and resources that Goodwill provides job seekers makes up for the prices. Not only are you supporting an organization that cares about bettering people’s lives while also supporting the community people live in. When you are looking for a job and cannot find one until you have people backing you up, being supportive, and assisting your career journey. I was a job seeker that became a career coach. I support Goodwill by donating more and shopping more. And this is MY experience not hearsay.

[@1wayvintage]

Thank-you SO much for sharing this! I know several people who were helped by Goodwill and Salvation Army to secure a job and even move on to seek advanced employment. Good for you! All the best!

[@susanpriddy740]

Yes. Definitely over 100.00

[@1wayvintage]

Yes, indeed. Ouch! But at least under 200 after the gift cards!

[@mrs.anonymous6291]

Those little piggies how could you leave them, they were so adorable?! You could have picked up a pair of piggie cookie jars if I saw right?

[@1wayvintage]

They were indeed piggy cookie jars, and it pained me, but they were big and fragile and so difficult to ship. It hurt, though. They were SO cute!

Oh, I bet that was good! Sounds beautiful, actually! Now I know!

[@fredelliott5187]

Just discovered your channel. I watch several different reseller channels. I enjoy your sweetness and we have very similar likes. I'm 69 and have shopped secondhand my whole life. Rarely buy new. I will check out your shop once I find it. Prices at GW here in Central Illinois/Indiana are very high. I prefer Habitat For Humanity and church-run thrift shops. God bless you and your husband.

[@1wayvintage]

Welcome Andrea! So happy to have like-minded friends join our channel. I love to treasure hunt and have fun. Great idea to go to church sales. I need to look for those. They seem more popular in the mid west. I hope you keep joining in, and God bless you too! ❤❤

[@arlenepatterson2419]

I want my grandmas thrift store.

[@1wayvintage]

Do you have any Assistance League thrift stores in your area? They are more like Grandma's thrift store, and I really enjoy that too. I agree, some of the modernizations of Goodwill are unbecoming...like the Target clearance items taking up shelf space instead of donated goods!

[@debbyeahrens6508]

No longer donate to Goodwill or shop there. They were reselling brand new items from Target for over the regular prices.

[@1wayvintage]

I've never seen a good price on their Target items, and I'm surprised they sometimes take up a whole isle or two. Not really what us thrifters want to see, unless it's a deep discount! I also don't like their checkout areas, full of overpriced "new" items, like dollar store quality. But, there are still great treasures to be found! Have a wonderful weekend!

[@lorettagoldyn5918]

We're there any purses

[@1wayvintage]

Hi Loretta! I don't typically look through purses because I am not very good at spotting fakes. If I see a good Betsy Johnson, I will pick up that brand! I will check next time, however, to see how their purse section is looking. Thanks for watching! 😃

I don’t want an elevated shopping experience at Goodwill. I want cheap stuff and to not get reamed by the greedy overlord CEO.

[@1wayvintage]

I don't think they had that color out anyway! Lol! But you're right, no need for a sale on opening day!

[@JigsawPuzzleConnection]

I did not know one opened in Fountain Valley. I used to live there. I need to go there. Where is it? Probably cheaper prices for the opening. Goodwill is getting overpriced. Thanks

[@1wayvintage]

Hi, it's on Magnolia, where Tuesday Morning used to be! I was wondering about if prices will stay low. I went today, and the shelves weren't very restocked yet.

[@JigsawPuzzleConnection]

Thanks I was thinking about going Wed. Guess not. I will wait a while.

[@joheldenbrand4985]

Will not donate to goodwill at the prices they sell donated merchandise. At.

[@dorisklinger6683]

Why are you watching then?

[@1wayvintage]

The prices were pretty good, but we will see for how long! I know some stores have very high "pricers" a little too happy with their tags!

[@marywalker2896]

They do hire disabled people also which is good. Yes they have some questionable practices which is not fair and the CEO,S make to much Money but they do,do some good for the community..I donate to smaller thrift shops that help our community..exspecially those that help our women and children..

Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts too!

I didn't go 6 I couldn't deal with the crowds and I am glad I made that decision, I spoke to a guy who was there and said he got there early and was I forget what nu.bet but it was in the 200's! It was all over the news and people came from all over!

[@constancethurman5357]

TIP.. If you can’t find a cart available at a thrift store, go to the basket area first and find a big basket to put your stuff in when you are ready to check out if you don’t want to buy the basket just let the cashier know you changed your mind on the basket😉

[@1wayvintage]

This is a GREAT tip!! Thank-you!!!
