Perfect TIMING at GOODWILL | Thrift With Me | Reselling

[@BeckyFlansburg]

Right in the beginning you found a piece of pottery with an Empty Bowls mark. Empty Bowls is typically a fundraising event where artisans make bowls that shoppers can buy and have a meal. The proceeds typically go towards an organization that works with food banks or childhood hunger. The Bowls aren’t valuable, I just thought you’d enjoy learning about the meaning 😊

[@CountryLady1752]

Interesting:)

[@anniebellatreasures7956]

I came to say this too. We have this fundraiser in my state also.

[@JudithPrinkki]

I was also going to comment about the empty bowl.

[@agelessbeauty9136]

I enjoyed you explaining that..thank you!!

[@mrzipmdo]

A few that my mom took my children to back in the day, allowed the kids to MAKE a bowl first. You paid for that activity. Then the bowls were all fired etc and on a SECOND date, you would go back and pay again and SELECT a bowl to receive your soup in OR depending upon the event or the bowl, you'd' receive your soup in a plastic bowl. My kids always selected their own bowls of course. :)

[@SarahWorkman-y3g]

I love the no music blasting in the background!

[@maryr7800]

Me too! I just can't shop in a store with loud music blasting.

[@vintagegal4919]

Did you notice at about 3:25 the guy in background was asking about the stereoscope and cards you bought. You can hear the worker call it a view finder and say someone's already got it. lol

[@KG-wd4id]

I was wondering if she was going to say anything about that. Also curious if he had seen it before she picked it up or if someone called him and told him about it etc. 🤷‍♀️

[@kristinnethers9881]

I heard them talking about it

[@vintagegal4919]

@@KG-wd4id He probably saw it and when he got home his wife said "go get that" lol

[@pattybonilla5072]

[@lesliespradley8897]

It’s an antique stereoscope viewer. Great find definitely worth more than $30!!

[@debishaw9355]

Thank you. For the life of me couldn’t remember the name

[@zanneizzo8113]

I like the longer goodwill videos where you show us more of what is on the shelves.

[@terrynuzzo8032]

I did too ... A more enjoyable video ....

[@randyheitman4324]

Me too, miss those

[@gerryberra2982]

OMG alI started laughing when you picked up the COWBELL all I could think of was Will Ferrell on SNL🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@ruthbrooks8699]

More cowbell lol 😂

[@SonjaPfeffer]

Same

[@juliechapman-xu4if]

I've been selling stereoscope's and cards for many years. Real photo cards of historical events, presidential, disaster events. Bring top $$. Also manufacturers dictate price. One card could pay for the whole lot. Fantastic find.

[@wandaholdren7854]

I have one with world war 1 photos surprised I was allowed to look at them when I was small some are gory

[@ruthbrooks8699]

Brian May from Queen is massively into stereoscopic and has a few books out on the subject

[@etheltilton8999]

I like the longer, browsing videos. I have learned a lot about various items from your chatter! I can't shop a lot anymore but I enjoy you doing it.

[@elliesusan]

Empty Bowls. A great way to feed the hungry. We have done this. Bowls are made by artisans and the common folk. Some are just beautiful! Then they are displayed and eventually auctioned with $ being donated to the organization.

[@lauraeichler611]

Those painted toile trays were nice! The black one beside the tv tray tops was hand painted!

[@ellengordon4468]

I have the black one from my aunt's house.

[@Signe-p3m]

The stereo cards were made by taking pictures with a camera that has two lenses quite close to each other. When you view the pictures through the viewer, they look three dimensional. The more valuable cards are the ones that are actual photographs rather than prints of photos. They often sell for 7 to 10 dollars each, depending on subject. Some historical pictures can go way higher. Great luck finding those! This was entertainment at the turn of the century.

[@janewasson4845]

My great grandfather, C L Wasson, went around the world around 1900 taking stereoptic pictures. His studio was in Decatur, IL.

[@bonniesuetterlin2537]

It's called a stereoptican

[@debishaw9355]

My grandparents were from Switzerland and they had one of the cameras and pictures that they would let us look at when we were little. What a treat for us kids.

[@bettymunguia2136]

My grandmother had that view finder when I was little and I loved looking at all the cards, wow memories, I'm 70 so it's old 🎉😊😊

[@Linnidoo2]

😅lol

[@monadillard6675]

After you picked up the cards and viewer you can hear someone in the background asking about it. Lol

[@gissyb1]

I really like the extended goodwill trip video. More viewings, that we dont see usually

[@DeeElleUU]

It’s called a stereoscope. 🥰🇨🇦

[@Jenn-98]

The peach mouse thingy with the glasses is to cover your spare toilet paper roll on the back of the toilet!

[@KristineS73]

Yes!!! Just came to say this😂

[@janeschmidt9611]

Why?

[@kristinmead9996]

Whew! I had strains of Muskrat Live going through my head when you picked that up…

[@symptomoftheuniverse4149]

That blue bird is for potpourri, notice the whole is big and there should be a whole at the neck to hang it. I think they are called pomander, use cloth soaked in oils or perfume

[@barbaralogan358]

That is exactly what it is. I have several of these bluebirds and other pomanders. Love them!

[@cathycavalcante4732]

Hiya Jocelyn. The lid/hat is actually a replica of a US ARMY Infantry beret. My youngest son was ARMY Infantry for 8 years, so I'd know that patch and beret anywhere. 💙🤍

[@maryzylema9699]

The piece you found in the beginning is so cool . Not something you would think to find in a Goodwill.

[@annadembowska1160]

Sweet Lenox teapot 🫖 my favorite 😍

[@cindyboyd8137]

Wow! The barometer!! What good fortune to the person that gets it!

[@Joycat510]

Very collectible!

[@janmcguire5268]

That sheet music would be fabulous in matching frames in a music room!!!

[@KathyLange-p8t]

Did that in my daughter's room when she was very young. "JEANINE I DREAM OF LILAC TIME". That's her name. Used a piece of fabric that matched her bedspread as a mat.

[@elizabethscruggs1622]

The steroscope is very cool with that many cards too!! Your kids might like to see that too. Great leaarning tool and i hope Andrew loves it. Great price!

[@Neb.333]

That Goodwill❤ is so clean looking and organized

[@diannecoyne993]

I can't believe you passed up on that 1960s Stack of Lemons décor! That was in the houses of the 1960's Doris Day movies! They are classic Mid Century Kitch! I'd love to find one of those in the wild... or buy one. Very hard to find. There is one on Charish for $500.00.

[@kristinmead9996]

Yes! My grandmother had one.

[@thatlittlecraftingplace]

I walk three miles in to town several times a week and my destination spot is a thrift store just as they are bringing out the fresh carts :) Then I wait for my husband to finish his visit to the gym.

[@pennybooher4090]

Stereoscope and slides. My husband’s late grandmother had one

[@jmcosmos]

00:31 It's a stereoscope and a collection of its cards. The viewer uses parallax to trick your eyes into thinking you're looking at 3-D images. They were VERY popular in the late 1800s. 02:32 I think the mark is Wheelock. If they're who I think they are, they were a family of brothers from Wisconsin who began selling fine china in the late 1870s, and got into the souvenir plate business in the mid-1890s. The Wheelocks contracted with potteries in several countries (England, Germany, Austria, Japan) to produce for them. I also see "made for C. B. Myers Gettysburg PA". One of the Wheelocks' selling points was that "YOU can have YOUR company name right on the bottom of the plate next to our mark!" Oh, and ick ... there's some damn mounting-hardware scraping on the underside of the rim, just beyond your pointer finger. 13:13 I mean, they WERE cute when they were new, but there's a lot too many condition issues for my taste. 13:21 Naah, just a horse with a stylised forelock. 15:42 That is a thermometer-barometer set. I've never seen anything quite like it. 15:57 URRRRGGGGGHH! Put it back, put it BACK! The mercury column in the barometer has developed voids, and you'll never on earth get them all out. 18:24 Exactly right. Those are TV trays missing their legs. Many a meal I ate off 'em when I was young. 20:30 Now I know what it is! It's a ceramic replica of a US Army beret, with the generic blue-shield flash worn by personnel not in a Special Forces unit. 22:03 I think they're clips to keep pieces of paper together and organized. As they don't have any hook holes, I suppose they're meant to sit on a desk.

[@lornaleader9958]

Love watching your videos! If you listen at 3:45 a women’s is talking to a man that is looking for the old view finder! What an amazing find.

[@chriswitt2596]

Cards and the viewer are the best thing you've ever found in my opinion. I have no idea if they're valuable but what a cool find. Historically with all the cards so neat. I'm surprised that anybody would put them in the Goodwill they really could go to a museum

[@EvaFey-h1g]

The bird is a scented. Bird uput some scented beats in not a saltshaker😊

[@juleespaits2319]

I would look up that Lemon statue, if it’s Italian it could very well be worth some decent money.

[@amypaine4774]

Danforth is well made expensive made in Vermont. Great company

[@JetLagRecords]

Crazy Lamp Lady, Your videos are fantastic! I just had to subscribe!

[@karenwilson6506]

I LOVED your comment about "Two pieces for Andrew to play with!" What fun to have jobs where you get to PLAY with cool stuff AND make a living doing it!👍🥰😎

[@craftyladies7777]

I think the fairy light wS. Home interior piece. The 3rd piece would have been one of the glass votives with the stem to put in a candle holder

[@charlottebryant5746]

Maintain your standards for no chips or cracks and your business will remain of highly profitable and trustworthy

[@rebahensley5323]

I was taught that to serious collector, a chipped or cracked item has no value. Zero.

[@thatlittlecraftingplace]

Oh yes, we need more cow bell :)

[@KristieGallion]

Suggestion for your box sales-costume jewelry. Could make a great build a box. Also themed boxes would be fun. Sal and pepper shakers, candle holders, glasses. Loved that idea and a great way to get rid of too many smalls.

[@laurarose6829]

I can hear 2 people talking about the viewfinder you just picked up at 3:28

[@juliemeara4929]

11:48 isn’t that the fairy light. Or is that a part you got. Love your videos. Also find your voice so soothing - rewatching helps me sleep if I’m anxious. ( btw watching from Australia- I tell everyone to watch you 😂)

[@amberdoll410]

I wondered this also

[@jeffvenables4845]

Hi Jocelyn. The antique viewer is sometimes called a stereoptica. And the photos are 3 D when viewed. Pretty fun! My husband has one. Some of the photos can be quite valuable. ~Cathy

[@janmcguire5268]

Oh, my goodness! I can’t believe you found a stereoscope at Goodwill!!! How cool!!!

[@debragiannetti9755]

Omg I have the mate to the blue bird salt shaker. I’ve had it for years and always hoped I’d find another one. Seeing that you found one gives me hope lol

[@rebekahj82]

That's a Götz doll! ❤

[@jillbeck1828]

I love that stereopticon with the cards. I have one somewhere....

[@barbarabeard6017]

If you ever did want TV trays you can usually find legs elsewhere in the store. Some of the vintage trays are worth a little money. The stereo card viewer and all those cards are likely worth a good chunk of money! Back in the day, Disneyland had many of them set up in the huge gift store in the front as you entered Disneyland. They charged for viewing.

[@deborahstout4986]

That old viewfinder and photos is a great find!!

[@mollyswanner1607]

There was a cute owl piece toward the end!!

[@marywisler]

So relaxing without the loud music. ❤best wishes Kathlene

[@pinkplateful1957]

I love this long version! :)

[@colleenbrown3366]

I believe the colorful, folksy round metal tray you had put back on the bottom shelf is a Peter Hunt piece. Peter Hunt was a prolific decorative painter from the Cape Cod area and very popular in the (I think) 40's & 50's. There are a few trays listed for about $25.

[@barbarareed3661]

The bird may be a pomander rather than a shaker.

[@carfingar3]

I believe the gray grandma mouse at the end was a toilet paper hider for the bathroom usually put on the back tank of the toilet

[@Pherine1]

I belong to a pottery group called Clayshare, every year we have a project called Empty Bowls where a lot of the members make bowls for the homeless, so they can be filled with food

[@stephanieevans6542]

Can’t wait to see the interesting photos Andrew finds. Bet he’s going to spend some time checking that stereoscope out, great find!❤

[@ksgoo4960]

That goodwill looks clean and organized. My goodwill in Whitehall Ohio is a total dump and everytime I am in there shopping, there is always the sound of glass breaking in the back of the store. The items just get thrown on the shelves.

[@cindyboyd8137]

The little pottery bowl with orangish marking was pretty. I would’ve gotten it but that’s the BOHO in me. 😊

[@Cyrilmc222004]

Thank you so much I really really enjoyed watching you gather up some nice stuff at the thrift store, we here in the UK call them charity shops, and ours are never ever as good as yours. But, I really like your style and I’ve subscribed and given you a thumbs up too.

[@trinasthings]

4:07 the shelves look neat & well organized compared to most thrift stores in my area. 16:02 very nest find

[@shawnreilly2582]

Totally random fact, Brian May of Queen is a collector of stereo viewer cards. I believe he has also written a book about them. Look on the cards for printer and series name/number.

[@BarbGreenwood-b9u]

I’m sorry you didn’t buy the lemons and the beautiful old barometer/thermometer.

[@sharongates6142]

Lenox Christmas teapot was my favorite!

[@robynnedorion3900]

I LOVE the tea pot!!!

[@donnasharabi1588]

Wow fantastic find right off the start, with soooo many picture cards.

[@esthermolina8156]

You just passed the third piece of the fairy light before picking up the candle holder I wish there was a way to have let you I love your videos It brings such joy

[@robyncooperramsey8323]

Esther, what’s the time stamp? Thank you!

[@dawncook2053]

Can you put time stamp of when piece was seen? I went back on video but couldn’t see what the piece looked like.

[@KristineS73]

I watched it several times and it's a cut right before showing candle holder. I don't see the piece?

[@LindaKayHolevas]

Was it by the cow bells at about the 19:00 mark? I am pretty sure I saw it, too.

[@MarinaPalalagi]

Was that it .. sitting on an end cap in front of two gold lidded jars with pink and peach candle wax and beside the white tea light thingy at 18:58?

[@Mirella80]

I think the bird at 4.40 is a pomander.

[@karenwilson6506]

At about 20:10, that weird looking "bowl" thing looks like a military beret. Perhaps, as you said, the lid to some sort of a vessel? IDK. 🤔 Just a thought...

[@michelledekker7654]

You have such good luck, good eye and good Goodwills.❤

[@Linnidoo2]

I have those same two fairy lamp pieces! Ive never found the third part either 😮

[@martisteele6542]

I've had several pieces of Purinton pottery. It's very nice, but sadly doesn't sell well.

[@lindak361]

1:12 I have seen the viewer before in an antique store. I don't think I have ever seen the cards in the wild.

[@carolynzwickook1649]

Sterioptigon is what it's called... not sure of spelling. Thet Fd neat!

[@carolynzwickook1649]

They are neat!

[@DDDD-yd6uj]

The stereopticon score at the goodwill is major- and makes up for the lack luster finds of the past few videos! Your treasure hunting reminds me of my south florida treasure hunting...lots of broken, hideous crap and then a nugget or two. I feel thrifting and picking have, for me, jumped the shark. I've been thrifting since the 80's but have recently noticed that finding "good" stuff is getting harder and harder. Seems like everyone out there is re-selling. Thrifting is my therapy (I don't resell) so I enjoy the hunt more so than the buy.

[@Hopeforus24]

18:59 right as she turns the corner in the back. Right before she picks up the tiny flowers???

[@margethibeault6950]

The cape cod gravy boat is one of only 4 pieces I don't have! Other pieces are trivet tray, heart trinket box and napkin rings..

[@Linnidoo2]

Be sure to reach out to her!

[@lillybits9726]

19:04 Top of the fairy light? ( no clue what it would look like) Second shelf down on the right??? 🤔🤔🤔

The stereoscope find was amazing. I love old photos, you're going to love going through those.

[@cindyboyd8137]

Oh my gosh! The glasses with animals and sayings. I want! 💕 My daughter’s friend has a name for all of us based on birth month (I think??). Ima a Doberman pinscher (🤷‍♀️ sure🤣), grandsons are corgi (yes cute as a button and loyal), a camel (yes, spits occasionally), daughter is alligator, (yes, kinda scary, but also stealth, under the radar smart 🤓), and friend is eagle (jury is still out, need more info 🤣🤓).

[@susielopresti7879]

Jocelyn, what is recycled glass? I’ve herd it referred to and found by other resellers but cannot figure out what it exactly is. Love your videos.

[@petrahutchison6962]

What about toile trays? Do they not have value or not shippable? I just think they are so pretty.

[@runsoffsarcasmcoffee8303]

The weird mouse doll sits on top of a toilet paper roll, so you can have extra toilet paper in your bathroom and have it hidden under decor

Oh how I love watching your shopping videos when the store's music is blaring. SO NICE!

[@SharlasJournal]

I saw one of those appraisal shows and lady had one of those pigs with painted on shamrocks (shown in this video) and it was worth a lot of money.
