OVERwhelmed as the inventory POURS into this Goodwill thrift store | High PROFIT finds I have SOLD

[@juliamusser8932]

I LOVE your chit chatting with us!

[@bridgetulrich1711]

In Poland under communism, girls my husband grew up with would make crafts out of the silver bubblegum wrappers and other items like that because they had limited supplies and options during that time. My husband is 44 for reference so this was not that long ago.

[@Rebecca-v4y]

Interesting story! Praying our country never goes to that

​@@paraleezappa9271anyone that supports him is an ignorant racist that votes against their own best interests.

[@johnandcathywhite5785]

Thank you for setting a great example on how to be respectful of keeping order in the thrift stores. We spend quite a bit of time in our shop straightening up after customers leave items in odd places or on the floor. I notice that society seems to have lost respect for retail stores and create chaos which costs them more because of the labor needed to reorganize the store on a daily basis.

[@ValerieAbbott-on1mr]

Hi Karen from Queensland Australia. I got my giggle for the day. I've never had a banana stand either 😂😂😂. Great video as usual. Along with Picker Road, and Thrifting Vegas you are my favorite. Nothing depressing and good information and humor. Val 🐨 💖

[@bluestarblue22]

Hi, I’m also from Qld. Karen is by far my favourite. I’ve been enjoying watching Thrift for Decor too. He is always so positive. I’ll have to check out Picker Road. Lol, I’ve also never had a banana stand either!😅🍌🇦🇺🐨

[@lavenderclothesline]

Thanks for watching Val!! 💜💜

[@vegegirl101]

Notice that the hook on these so-called 'banana hangers' is too small for bananas. 😂

[@vickya8653]

Also from Qld and never had a banana stand. You’ve started something Val 😂

[@Victoria-f9e]

Karen, I love your banter, it is everything! Love you and Roger!

[@lala1004u]

U know...I wait to watch ur videos until I feel a bit stressed...u bring a sense of calm & and remind me hard work pays off...thanks Karen ❤

[@lavenderclothesline]

I'm so glad! 🥰

[@maryallen1017]

Karen, Those Vincent Van Gogh Sunflower Sneakers are $165 new. They are adorable! 🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻

[@mariaroldan4200]

I am shocked that Karen did not comp

[@susanscalici7910]

People purchase oil lamps to have on hand for emergencies. I love shopping with you! Thank you for all your time & effort.

[@karenkuhr5698]

Not so much anymore, due to the use of emergency battery powered lanterns, etc

[@PamMorton-x3x]

Thank you soooo soooo much for not showing/recording little ones. I’m always amazed when people do .

[@lavenderclothesline]

I do try but sometimes it’s impossible

[@Katherine-fh1zr]

I thought of you today as I dug through piles in search of coats to give out in my community,I so admire the work it takes

[@laurabarker2233]

GE Karen. Thank you again for taking us with you. I see you passed by the Hummel's. Sad that they were 'collectable" at one time, but not anymore unless they have a special mark on them. My mom collected them for years and when I worked, at a dept. store back in '73, making $,75 an hour, I would put one on layaway for her for Christmas. Have a nice rest of your night.

[@818nooner]

Love the last part on the comps and what sold!

[@dp3643]

If you are looking for the really old Oil Lamps, the threads from the metal wick holder will be on the inside and the makers name or signage is on the knob the moves the wick.

[@janebramlett2654]

It is just a joy listening to you. So upbeat and pleasant. Still love your stories.

[@lavenderclothesline]

Thank you Jane!! 💜

[@vansmom123]

Good morning Karen. It’s always fun to follow all the shenanigans you get up to, no matter how you present it. Have a beautiful day 🙏❤️

[@shfrederick1]

I'm fairly sure the brass and glass ceiling shade is made with the little gaps for air circulation. I had them in my hallway and they are pretty when the lights are on. That house was built in the 90's.

[@leahpollard3710]

i literally remember u buying all the things in your high profit part! The chicken painting that a woman really wanted, the miniature beautiful winter screne on slate at a yard sale or flea market, and that amazing Alfredo picture of the nude woman, i actually looked this up on your ebay and then googled the artist so i can print some of these and frame them for my home. I love the asthetic!

[@nitaburg-zn4kd]

Yes, if you have the space in your booth, I would say get the cloche . Whether it’s meant to be a cloche doesn’t really matter, they are trending right now and people are using all types of clear glass to make their own.

[@limagolf86]

The gold napkin holder is fairly recent and from ikea

[@organizersrus]

Let’s go shopping with Karen and Roger! Yes please. ❤

[@marihawkes-vail4605]

you were awesome girl! no worries! we all still love you and Roger!!!

[@maesams6212]

Thank you for taking the time to share your shopping experience. It's a big deal for you to concentrate on shopping, while filming. You are truly appreciated, and I thoroughly enjoyed!!!!❤❤🙏🏿🙏🏿👍🏿👍🏿

[@minie4887]

Way to go Karen Pyrex $122 and it's my favorite color purple 🎊 congratulations 😊

[@LindaKayHolevas]

Great video, Karen! Thank you, as always, for taking us along with you. Your video is always the highlight of my Sundays (& Wednesdays!) & while I enjoy seeing Roger making an appearance, I certainly don’t expect him to be in every one of your videos, haha 😉😉😉

[@NanaColeen]

I love a random video with all of your thoughts👍❤Your the best

[@vintagemarylouise7319]

I gave my son a vtg frog scrubby holder for his new apt, he and his roommates love it!😅

[@kelleykelley549]

Wonderful as always! ❤❤❤

[@lavenderclothesline]

Thank you so much Kelly 💜

[@cherieamourofficial]

Another enjoyable Sunday virtually shopping with you. Thank you for showing the amethyst Pyrex dishes. Last year, I purchased two of the same bowls at Savers for my personal use. I loved the color. Wishing you and Roger a wonderful week.

[@rockymountainreseller]

Had one screaming at Goodwill today. Looked about a year old. Then they put the other two siblings in the cart and I finally had to leave and come back later. Couldn’t hear yourself think. Normally doesn’t bother me but it was over the top. Found good stuff on the second visit.

[@lauriebrooks6519]

Amazing deal on the Pyrex bowls

[@kathybarnett1905]

Thank you for showing solds. I dont always get to look back

[@darleneshreeves6225]

On the oil lamps you will find the makers name on the knob that raises the wick. Google the name. The pie crust top of the glass is worth more than just a smooth rim.

[@lavenderclothesline]

Thank you!

[@shellystudiesgizmos2465]

Those Christmas stockings are beautiful!

[@susansullivan4430]

Did you notice at 16:30 what appeared to be a Lucite Flower Clock..what a find!!!

[@debyoung7818]

Oh that clock is Everything Fab!

[@AuntGrace]

Karen. Your fine. 💕 just go for the gold and we will cheer you on 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@lavenderclothesline]

😘😘😘 thank you Grace!

[@pattiesheward8332]

put your candle holders with melted wax in them, in the freezer for about 20 minutes. Let the wax freeze and then it will pop right out with little or no scraping.

[@lavenderclothesline]

I did that once and the holder cracked 😟

[@marylouklooster5056]

Hi Karen! I loved the Teenaged Mutant Ninja Turtles and the Christmas Stockings... I'm a grandmother, and it is that time of year again!

[@mcgovernsandra]

great video! Those sneakers you passed up are Cariuma. They go for decent money. You don't find it often in thrift stores.

[@pamelagardner4191]

Right out of the gate at 0:25, looks like a bag of girl scout badges - to the right of the scalloped planter. I got good money for those on eBay in the past.

[@kathyjohnson1911]

Love your top, looks beautiful on you!

[@spiritedsoulcollection]

Good evening Karen, watching from Cape Town South Africa🇿🇦🙏.

[@vlrissolo]

How are things there?

[@pattianderson4843]

Hi Karen. Your videos are always so good. I have the bell wreath and love it. The ninja turtles were my favorite pick up. You always find fantastic treasures, and take time to talk about them. ❤ My husband collects oil lamps, he said he started as a child because of power outages. His grandmother gave him some on his birthdays. He still has them. We don't know much about them, other than they are beautiful and super fragile. Thanks for the fun shopping trip.

[@tinaranson6172]

Fun trip, so many things!

[@JamieTressler-mc3it]

Hi Karen, Snoopy is trending heavily everywhere. Everyone is selling him on shirts and mugs so that was a good choice. His first appearance on Charlie Brown was October 4, 1950 so that would make him 75 years old in 2025.

[@LoretteBernardo]

Hi Karen and Roger, joining you from Jeffreysbay, South Africa. ❤

[@vegegirl101]

Another inspiring video, thank you. I love the way you shop, and how you explain things.💐

[@lesliespradley8897]

My Goodwill only stocks shelves on Tuesday 😡 That’s it !!! They just let the shelves empty out during the week. I asked an employee why they didn’t bring more inventory out during the rest of the week to fill up the empty areas and she said the manager says that’s the only way they get the “crappy “ stuff sold😮🤯 so that is why it is so fun shopping along with you and getting to see all those carts coming out😁

[@grayciesmom5807]

The oil lamps are sometimes retrofitted with cords to make them electrical. I had one.

[@dianeliggett9575]

Wow, what a huge Goodwill.

[@debbied3116]

Enjoyed! Thank you for sharing!

[@joycehalstead]

Love the video ❤❤❤❤

[@rosavargas539]

Karen , I still use all my fancy dishes and service ware , even for random birthdays and BBQ’s I just love getting a gussied up and bringing all my fancy flutes and plates and serving trays , my family thinks I’m crazy because I then have to wash it all afterwards 😫 but for me I just love it . I bought a large gazebo last summer and put a large dinning set underneath and often times will bring dinner outside and eat in the garden while sipping a glass of wine with all my thrifted treasures and say to my self … this is life😂😂😂😂 thanks for all the great vids

[@lavenderclothesline]

I absolutely love this!! It’s so important to take time to do what you enjoy in life 💜👍

[@CretivityAj-nr3dg]

Love the lighting fixture & the kerosene lamps, & also the vintage stockings, they're beautiful! Great video

[@hiyellagal]

I love creme brulee too, but have only had it once. Korea has excellent quality leather. Back in the late 80's early 90's; my brother was stationed there for two years when he was in the Army. He gifted my husband a gorgeous, long, heavy leather coat. I can't wait to see your shopping video when you go to visit your daughter. GREAT finds and sales as always!!

[@juanitaluke5255]

Loved today's episode thanks 😊

[@gracierose3076]

I would love to find a Goodwill that good. Ours are nothing at all. In fact, even the thrift stores that are privately owned are not good. It is so hard to find anything here!!!!... It is so fun to see all your goodies!

[@818nooner]

Take us to your salon! Best hair color! I know it’s off topic.

[@LindaKayHolevas]

Her daughter does her hair :). It’s beautiful, I know!

[@lavenderclothesline]

I am coloring my own roots 😂

[@bobbiecohen2180]

If you test your electrical items for the booth you can just write on it that it has been tested.

[@victoriaalbertson7584]

Love seeing those high profit flips! 🎉

[@gggrandmotherannonetsy423]

Love those Christmas stockings. Thanks for the video.

[@emerybob1]

Really love your videos, in all of their forms! Thank you for posting twice a week, I always look forward to them. Laurie

[@mariemathews7794]

I have a large tramp art frame from the 20s. Very rough hewn small pieces of wood intricately put together. It’s a work of art created by someone who made something out of nothing.

[@bjohnson1149]

To get wax out of a container, put it in the freezer for about 30 minutes and it will pop right out. The bell cloche (klosh - long O) is lovely. Why would you throw the pillow insert away? Couldn't you dry clean and steam it like the pillow cover?

[@MAnna-o7q]

Long o is the English pronunciation. Karen pronounced it the French way....

[@susanmulvey6311]

The little baby might just be thirsty or hungry. Poor baby! My eldest son made a wide mouth frog for my kitchen scrub pad, when he was in grade school! Wish I still had it! 😂

[@SandraHunt-b2m]

Take baby home now and tend to

[@HRHQueenAngelita]

exciting wow...the amethyst awwwwwwww

[@Gypsy_merch]

Great shopping time haul ❤

[@jonimosteller8946]

Don’t be sorry it was fun.🌻🍁🌻🍁

[@sumthingelsesumthingelse6811]

Karen, saw a couple wizard steins exactly like the one you showed us. One listed $199, one listed $89, solds: same but green cast $100 pkus $10 ship, same but light brown $50 w/free ship, Ivory color $45 plus $53 shipping. I think probable get $45 to $75 esp with Christmas coming 😉. Looks like “Vintage Gandalf” are keywords to this one.

[@Not-thatKaren]

Hello Lavender Clothesline! Love you videos! Please tell Roger hello and we miss him but understand!

[@jazzysbyjudi4797]

Gorgeous Ornaments!

[@teresasmith533]

The oil lamps are handy when power goes out. Make sure the wick and wick wheel turns. And be careful turning them sideways because the shade can come off. I have several different ones. I have one that is pretty old. My neighbor was about 80 thirty-five years ago. I bought it at her yard sale and she said it was her mothers. I've seen one just like it on Bonanza, so I think maybe from late 1800s.

[@misslannie73]

The target animal you thought was handmade is missing his antlers! Good job you didn’t get it. Looking lovely as always Karen. Take care darling and love to you and Roger xx

[@kmorris2238]

The Christmas stockings! 👍🏻👍🏻

[@brianhenry2385]

Oil Lamps: I feel in general the value of oil lamps has declined considerably in the last few years, but I find some of the old Aladdin’s (especially with their boxes) still do well, as do some of the Aladdin specialty lamp shades for their oil lamps.

[@thomascabral8443]

wow bagged ornaments,, love those always,,, just ran across two bags of Mark Roberts vintage 1990s push up jesture, and other jesture satin lined ornaments as well a monkey type all sell for $40-85.00 each about $250-300 worth for $20 for 2 bags

[@olganicholson9768]

what great things you found at this Goodwill ! You have a very good eye for quality items! I don’t know how you get so much done in such limited time. It’s amazing.

[@donnamurphy1871]

When do you think you will be listing the Christmas stocking? They are beautiful!

[@lavenderclothesline]

As soon as possible probably in a week

[@crystalsmith5441]

Love your videos Karen! Learned so much from you and Roger. The mercury glass candle holder was pretty. I have had excellent results removing wax from items by sticking in freezer for a few hours. It then pops right out.

[@shirleyjackson1819]

The ceramic snowman was a popular project in ceramic firing back in the late 60’s-70’s. I still have mine😁

[@shirleyjackson1819]

I find your videos well done. I started watching your channel on a regular basis after the video you posted of your honeymoon in Jim Thorpe Pa. My neighbor moved away and settled in Lehighton Pa. He sent me a beautiful aerial drone tour of Jim Thorpe that captivated me. So it was “Omgosh” when I hear you say Jim Thorpe!

[@kirstenrissling879]

You could leave that pillow insert in the store, so someone else can buy it and use it 🤷‍♀️

[@lavenderclothesline]

No, it’s not separately priced and they don’t sell inserts

[@Dorothy-j8c]

We miss Roger. Just let him know; #2 thrifting day without him.😢😢 That baby had quite a pair of lungs on him, since we could hear him too.😮. Nice picking Karen ❤

[@lavenderclothesline]

I don’t expect him to always make an appearance on my channel 💜

[@jolieflipsvintage]

fun finds!

[@heatherhoffman9719]

Wow purple Pyrex what a great find and a set of 3, GREAT!! I want that frog sponge holder!

[@karenadams138]

Hi Karen! ....This was such a good video!..... Loved all the inventory that kept coming out, cart after (cart after cart!😁)...so very fun!... you ened up with some fantastic finds!.... and, wow, the eye you have for unique and beautiful items is amazing...all of the old Christmas tree ornaments are like hitting the lottery and then Lisa finding an old silver Christmas tree in her garage???...Whaaaat?????........thank you for showing your sold items too and how much they sell for... Also, I love hearing your thought process and how you explain your reasons for keeping or leaving behind different items (aka- giving it some more thought lol😊)....It will be so nice seeing Lisa and her husband in October and visiting a brand new Goodwill is like icing on the cake!.....Karen, imho, your channel is the absolute best one as far as reselling is concerend....Always look forward to your next video, thanks so much for all you do! hugs and blessings 😊❤

[@kathybarnett1905]

The uneven glass lets the heat out from the lightbulbs

[@davisartstudios]

Whatever my mom got for her countertop she can’t sit bananas on it turns it brown! Lol she didn’t know that till she learned the hard way!

[@denisephillips1988]

Good morning!! ☀️

[@RedRoadgifts]

Love your video, I subscribed

[@dorisfricke-rx9nf]

Great video thanks so much

[@dianadougherty1082]

I love creme brûlée.....I had it every day on our last cruise !

[@tetenmount2650]

If the oil lamps have aladdin burners they are worth more. Oil lamps are still made.

[@cheryldavis8776]

I'm just speculatin'... but I think that the Tonala "CANCÚN" plate might have some relevance to a Tonala collector, and might not be that hard to sell... I'd have taken a chance on it if the price was right! 😊 Regarding the glass clōche: "clōche" is French and is pronounced with an Ō-sound like the Ō in "clōthing." And the cloche simply has a rough, unfinished pontil mark, usually called an open pontil. A pontil mark that has been made smooth is called a polished pontil.

[@abil828]

So many lovely items todayKaren, great haul! But oh my gosh, my heart sank when you said you and Roger were going to your daughters house in October! That’s when we forgot our trip to come up there and thrift in your area and top of our bucket list was hopefully to see you guys.I hope that our journeys will be on different dates. Fingers crossed.😂

[@earleendoute492]

Karen, I think the reason that the ceiling fixture is made that way to allow the hot air from the bulb to escape,perhaps.

[@lavenderclothesline]

I think it’s missing it’s finial screw knob that secures it onto the rod

[@organizersrus]

Karen, did you ever find anything out about the painting you bought at the flea market?

[@Waileybynn]

Creme brûlée is my favorite desert 🤤

[@leanndoolin4284]

The napkin holder you found is contemporary from Target.

[@lavenderclothesline]

Ikea?

[@JamieTressler-mc3it]

I already commented but I forgot to tell you that a restaurant near me makes homemade chocolate Crème Brûlée. 🥰

[@lavenderclothesline]

💃💃😂 Yummm!!

[@Diane-i5i]

I remember when you and Roger bought a big carboard box of vintage ornaments at a flea market. You paid only $100. What a deal - they were all gorgeous!!

[@kimkerley4218]

I wish you would have given Roger the Ninja Turtles because they can sell good. 😊
