Resale Treasures at my Least Favorite Thrift Store | Buying & Reselling

While we were visiting New England, we visited three separate Savers. The first Savers was a total disappointment. (Link below.) The second two Savers in this video were not as terrible, but Savers still holds special rank as my least favorite thrift store.

Its nice to see kids still wanting to read books and enjoy them !!!! The library is my favorite place to be.

[@Faiththememe]

Ashton is in Massachuchets for some Chnow globes :)!!! Also, the fact he says “Hey guys!” to us all like we are his friends just warms my heart. Love you and your family!!!

[@theresathompson2784]

I love seeing your son is buying books 📚📚

[@kittyglitter5376]

Andrew said exactly the word I was thinking about those goldy things; “gaudy!”

[@marshamoore2419]

I've learned while shopping at Goodwill that if you're interested in an item, grab it! You can always put it back.

[@PeaceOutWorld]

I learned that the hard way a couple days ago, at a thrift store here in Germany. When I went back to collect 2 items, they were gone. But I made off with at least 10 items fortunately.

[@jamesbigham9036]

I always enjoy your videos they are very educational when it comes to learning about stuff which is a great thing. I respect how you are the type of person that is open and honest on stuff when it comes to good bargains I wish there was more people like you

[@deannfahey1120]

Next time you are in New England, you may want to go to Goodwill Buy the Pound store. In Hudson, NH there is one and you literally pay by the pound. I bought a big Keurig for $1.99 and it worked. Glass, ceramics, crystal are 20 cents a lb. General stuff is $1.39 per lb. There is alot of interesting items. Thanks for your videos, they are great and I am binge watching!! Learning alot.

[@realetreasures6443]

Our Goodwill breaks and trash's glassware and ceramics instead of selling to Buy the Pound. Such a waste!

[@uwsupergirl]

Love your son's enthusiasm for "finds". My kids are all grown but grew up being dragged to thrift stores pre-youtube at beginning of internet days...I love being thrifty & training younger generations!

[@libbynester1814]

I love going along for the journey. Even though I know you are concerned about copy write violations, the music is loud. I dislike restaurants or stores that have super loud music. I have problems concentrating when I am shopping or eating. LOL

[@lesahanners5057]

I went to GW this weekend and the crowds were intense, the pickings few, and not worth the headache. It looked like there had been a riot in the store with stuff thrown all over the place. The toy aisle was completely destroyed with most of the shelf contents on the floor. You should have seen this one woman, (well actually I'm glad you didn't), literally screaming at her kids, and chasing them up and down the aisle's. It was insane! You have the nicest kids girlfriend, and you can be proud, for you have taught them well. These kids were screaming and yelling, pulling things from shelves, and slamming repeatedly onto the keys of a piano in the furniture aisle. It was pure bedlam! For a nickle I would have left, but my hubby dropped me off, and had gone further in town to Home Depot, to do his shopping, so I was stuck. ARGH! ha ha ha Good thing I have a sense of humor. I have learned my lesson tho, from now on I'll go during the week when everyone is at work and the shelves haven't been picked over so much or destroyed. I still managed to get a few nice things, so didn't get completely skunked. I felt really bad for the hard working crew at GW, they are really nice folks, and I wished people would treat the places they shop in better, and the folks that work there nicer. Great to see you managed to find a few good things for all of your efforts. Sometimes it feels like Mortal Combat doesn't it?! ha ha ha Glad you got back home safe and able to hunt another day. I am still recovering. ha ha ha

[@mining4goldmeister420]

Savers picking on a Monday is usually not a good day. So-o-o picked over on the weekend. MA thrifts so picked clean by resellers anyway. Like I said on another video of yours, thrifting in lower New England is for the very hardy! PA is still one of the best pickin spots around!

[@allithresher3067]

Savers are so hit or miss - the Framingham location is a gold mine for vintage clothes and textiles. If you ever make it back to MA, be sure to visit Urban Renewal thrift in Allston or the giant goodwill outlet in Boston.

[@florider3415]

Fenton bells were nice. Never heard of barbed wire pattern before. You have a beautiful family.🌷🦋☀️

[@robinbird6279]

I went to Goodwill over the weekend and I noticed that some of their prices were really high! However.... I managed to find some really beautiful Crystal and decorative plates! 👍💗😀

[@stressfreepaperchase3215]

Thumbs up if you too want story time with Ashton. I think he would make a great story time reader.

[@LiJuun]

Gah! The sociopath cup is a quote from Benedict Cumberbatch's Sherlock. I'd have bought that at any price!

[@TruhbledPrincess]

I read it in his voice and immediately wanted it lol

[@ElicBehexan]

Me too!

[@acciokitties1362]

Same!

[@anncece7767]

I agree with Drew about those book end whatever they are things. Hope you left them there :)

[@smurph4959]

You know the brass platter thingy ... looks like the Egyptian tablet from nightime at the museum ... who knows what powers it has 😉

[@NestingHaven]

$3.99 for Pyrex is a good deal. I would have got it! 😊

[@janmariebrunette-hunyady1386]

White with black is hard to come by. I nab every piece I find because a lot of people have white and black kitchens with open shelves. I also collect Pyrex with black designs for myself and that dish is great for making small amounts of baked ziti or stuffed shells OR warming up two different items in the microwave. Here in MI you can't give away bells they just don't sell.

[@stephenanthony3094]

Omg! I would've grabbed that Barbed Wire Pyrex!!!

[@goodwillbunny5773]

Thank you for this video - yes, Savers has been way overpricced for 30 years!!!

[@Kairos1955]

The child beater serves I think to scratch your back.

[@almawalker6617]

"Match-a too-sis"! lol He can say it better than I can! So cute. Looks like your family had a fun day trip thrifting. :)

[@Jess-lf2fe]

Omg!! Your in my neck of the woods!! :) you should look into the Brimfield flea market in Brimfield Ma.!! It's amazinggg!!!

[@sidrarehman7376]

The gold things are arabic words which has Allah and Muhammad (p.b u.h) on them

[@annazaman9657]

They're probably from Saudi Arabia. Arabs do love gaudi gold stuff in their house

[@angellacoombs2801]

Great video. Though I was a little disappointed that you didn’t do the lamp isle critique. But I understand there’s no way to please everyone on here. Tfs! 😀

[@minnesotagal507]

Love the Bavaria pieces , where my mom was born.

[@bjsuggs2122]

Andrew so cute, you are a cute couple, stay happy thru out your journey. Wish I had your hair. I'm 65 and almost bold, so jealous. So learning from you vids

[@Vancouver.BC.1]

The 2 gold plated pottery are definitely Arabic calligraphy. Cheers!

[@christinatravis6686]

Pyrex isn't worth much without the glass lid. $3.99 should have been $1.99. I never knew you can spilt up a set the miller and sugar for $4.99 ea. That super saver is a rip off. Peace & love ✌☺👍💜💚💛💙. I love your honesty .

[@kathrynlay7428]

Ooh love the mid century wall art pieces. I would’ve grabbed them also! Cutie kids. Sold one of those barbed wire divided dishes once but got it at a church sale for $1. Fun video as always.

[@anselb2000]

I went YEAH! when your son picked out two books! The best things Goodwill and others offer is books! However, our Goodwill raised the price of hardbacks from $2.00 to $4.00. Their book sales have gone way down!

[@canelboy]

I guess im lucky because i have 3 savers within an hour of me and 2 are my favorite thrift stores. We find the best stuff there even on the weekends. Granted we dont resell but we still do amazing most times

[@ginadoyle4328]

just found your channel. love it! I'm a reseller too. cusious to see what others pick up. im from Pittsburgh

[@mikeenmaggie3312]

Have a business is like rollercoster...dont worry everbody believe in You In Holland also the best stuff is during the week... when im busy☺

[@mlsmith3361]

That's where I'm from, Matchachoosetts. :) Glad we don't have a Saver's up this way. Just lots of old thrift/junk and antique stores that you'd hate. Hahaha!

[@kellyepotts2780]

So I'm really wanting to get into picking. I have always had a love for vintage and I seem to have a really good eye for it too. I'll go to goodwill, find things that I'm pretty sure are worth money, but then I get discouraged because I don't want to be wasting my money. Anyways, I was wondering if there are any books or websites that can help me know what to look for when picking. I'm sure I'm going to get answers like, "oh, it's just collective knowledge and just kinda learning as you go." The thing is that, I don't know anyone else who picks and there aren't too many antique store where I live. These videos are really helpful, but I don't have such and extensive knowledge of these things, so really all I can gather is uh beware of modern rose medallion, no milk glass unless you know your stuff, and carnival glass is pretty but not worth it. Is there anything that can give me like a jump start into picking and reselling? Maybe just focusing on one thing until I pick up some more knowledge?

[@Silversmith925]

If you have a smartphone, Install the eBay app, pick a few things you think might sell and check the comparable "sold" items via eBay. That will get you in the ballpark on prices. Like anything else, practice makes perfect, knowledge is power. And don't be afraid to lose a few dollars, this method is a cheap education.

[@yerffej99]

I like the new Bedford savers better😊

[@mandypink7878]

I am a kindergarten teacher. Don't give the kid a complex about saying new words or words they can't pronounce! I know it seems harmless and funny, but children are so sensitive to learning during these years! I don't mean to be judgemental whatsoever. It's just the teacher coming out in me. Love your videos.

[@judiwills6381]

Mandy Pink Yes, sadly my grandson’s music teacher told him he was tone deaf and actually he had a good voice and could figure out how to play songs in a flash on keyboard! He never took an interest after that! He never forgot her words.

[@brodrick3164]

I hope you bought the psychopath mug. You could sell it as a Sherlock quote.

[@gailbrooks2575]

I liked the Fenton Bells. I have never seen Fenton Custard Glass.

[@susansmith6680]

I guess if I see a Savers I should just steer clear. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and insights it helps us all.

[@Crystal_Stephens]

Awe, I had hard time saying Massachusetts as well, when I was about his age. I remember coming home from school one day & asking my mom to help me figure out how to pronounce it correctly. I practiced for weeks. Almost 40 and I've finally about got it...lol

[@maryannanaya905]

Isn’t Fall River home of Lizzie Borden?

[@yerffej99]

Yes it is!

[@wendyrosko9449]

Indeed it is. The house has some kind of an engine you can stay at now actually.

That Savrs used to have cashmere and decent purses. It's more about necessities.

Never been to the fall river savers I usually go to the one in attleboro. I used to save those cookie molds way back when but I donated them .The next time you come up this way I would meet you at the store and get you my senior discount of 30 % on tues..

[@Kim-dq7ff]

You don’t seem to look for worn or off color at the bottom of a piece. Those gold sparkly things were snow white (tell tail it’s new) you need Sue 🍺🍻

[@OnlyclaireJones]

Cool little finds

[@conniecornsilk2955]

yeah your right I went to Savers for the first time in Peoria, AZ for a few plates cups, saucers they wanted $99 not even for a full set of china and they had a endcap full of different ones no way am I'm going to pay that without it being a full set and it better be really good

[@lindahill5194]

This is what my Savers always look like-the shelves look full compared to mine.

[@CarolSteinfeld]

The Fall River area is a low-budget area a bit too far from jobs. Ideally, you find some estate sale dumps there. But there are decent antique marts in the mills of New Bedford. One place had resale prices, but I think it's closed.

[@gonefishing3644]

How can you dislike a 20% off coupon for Savers that you get when donating a bag or box of stuff, or their club card day when stuff can be 50% off for card holders or their senior day when everything in 30% off (bring an older relative or friend and let them go through the check-out for you)? Sure, a lot of their stuff is over-priced for secondhand goods, but with the coupons or other discounts, those prices can be reduced to a reasonable level. I recently bought a 20" brown bead necklace they thought was plastic ($4.99 + a 20% discount) that tested as real Baltic amber. How can you beat that? And modern magazines (Living, Food Network...) for 69 cents each for those of us who do not want to pay full price for magazines? And the discounts you can get on remnants of vintage fabrics, wool needlepoint yarn, and abandoned partially completed vintage needlework kits can be amazing for those of us fiber artists who repurpose vintage materials to make quilts, patchwork garments, needlepoint hand bags, etc. And the vintage costume jewelry -- Sara Coventry, Trifari, Art and Berebi -- that they group with the cheap modern stuff and under-price? Savers stores can be a great place for bargains if you go there just when they open, shop there daily and know how to use their coupons and discounts. My favorite Savers is located on the edge of an upscale neighborhood where lots of retirees live -- and the amount of vintage, decorative items from foreign countries (Greece, Egypt, Iran...) and high-end, vintage, porcelain table settings (France, Germany, England...) that passes through that store is amazing.

[@bhwoodyard]

LOL Mattsachootsis! :) So, question: I recently bought a huge box filled with little ceramic hummel-like kids, all made in Japan (not occupied japan, though). $10, and I got about 15-20 of them. About what do you price one of those? Are some more desirable than others? I bought them because of the one little dog, inside, that I fell in love with! LOL.

Just curious, the gold Arabic pieces were hollow and you usually avoid hollow items. Why not those?

[@joycescott6066]

Yea what's up with thrift store employees ( even when you ask and they promise) that they never NEVER do it right . Wrap one cup and put it between two glass front frames or wrap one frame and pile books on top . Always comiming home with at least one thing bent broken or chipped . . . what's up with that ? AND they act like you're are asking for the world if you ask that they not make the bag too heavy . . . eye rolls huffin' & puffin' . . . 😒

[@daniellepulice4415]

So should we be grabbing all people figurines from Japan?

I also was curious about things from japan. Any suggestions on what is go and what is not and how to date items marked japan?
