I love the fishy planter & the Flintstones comic book ! Great finds !

[@rpkent8884]

loved the clown costumes for a whole family it seems... so glad you tried it on!

[@fairyGrandmother]

I made those same costumes for my kids in the 80's, It was an old pattern given to me from an aunt. I remember my sewing machine broke, so I actually stitched them by hand! TFS Hugs!

[@rpkent8884]

you are a loving mom.

[@teriastreasures2266]

that cat planter-- love, luv, LOVE!

[@denisefanelli9232]

Isnt it lovely when you find old books/annuals, posters and toys that you, your siblings and friends had when you were a child 😊 (70s early 80s for me) 🙄 i very often buy old toys and books i find in charity shops, i found an old wind up Evil Canevel motorbike and ramp my brother had as a child (he got it one christmas and it was his favourite toy ever) so i bought it and gave it to him for his 40th Birthday 😁 it was very expensive though!!! But he was so excited when i gave it him and the price was worth it just to see the huge SMILE on his face!!! xXx

[@lovemyferals]

What an amazing rummage sale! You really have to know what you want or you could wander all day. Great finds, thanks for taking us along!💕

[@PaperandMoose]

I will go next year but be more prepared!

[@maggiecousineau1877]

What an amazing Church rummage sale

[@glennpaton8283]

In the 1950's my aunty used to buy me a Little Golden book every pay day. Wish I still had them.

[@lajunecrockett2381]

She should have brought them all....all children books are collectable and yield money

[@junefrancis5232]

Great intro to your video! What a big sale tyvm for taking us along! :)

[@PaperandMoose]

It was a sale that I will make sure to attend every year from now on!

[@vickiejohnson5821]

So much fun watching you unboxing your treasures.love love love how happy it makes you.

[@hfsaid]

That was a FABULOUS sale!!! It's good I read thru the comments before writing, because I was going to yell at you for not buying that 50c witch. That was the best find, aside from the clown costumes. The hat you wore needs a wig under it, but for 1 dollar?!?! Great finds! You have lots of time to plan a party & get some friends to dress up with you. Please go back to the sale & buy some more vintage Halloween & toys. I loved those bags with the small figures.

[@lisacochran6846]

I almost peed my pants when I saw all those golden books ! How much were they ! I would have bought them all!

[@melindamoore9449]

I know this is an older video, but I was so hoping you had gotten all the little Golden Books. Grandparents and parents would have bought them at the flea market surely!! Oh well, next time. Love your videos. I've been binge watching them!! You go girl!!

[@janh519]

I’ve been binge watching your videos! They are so nice! As a Nana, I admire you for many things! You are thrifty and you have no crazy body piercings! You might have your ears pierced, which is fine. I hate to see all other piercings, especially the nose and around the eyes! I love your channel and twice I’ve watched your videos ALL night! Good luck with your buying, your sales, and ALL! 💕

[@sharonb537]

The fish is American Bisque Co. They made chicks and pigs too. You normally see them in yellow or cream so you found a great color. The vintage Rudolph stocking was adorable..I would have kept that too!

[@PaperandMoose]

Thank you for the information on the fish! As it was unmarked, you've saved me time in research!

[@robinrobinson5757]

My favorite thing was you in that hat and collar. Lol 🤣✌️

[@catherinethompson2525]

Love cats, they are collectible once again vintage for me, I am a child of 60's-70s my era of retro love it all

[@shadesofidaho]

Being the crazy cat lady my favorite was the kitty planter you are going to save for Halloween decor. Great fun to watch and I hope you get to go back.

[@juanitafruehling2039]

Love your clown costume modeling! Super cute!

[@PaperandMoose]

Thank you 🤗

[@yindyamarra]

@ 3:00 The Pokie little puppy, I still have mine and it’s 55 years old

[@laurajunerose]

Looked like the clown costumes may have been made for a family..Mom/Dad and Child. That is cool. You always find such wonderful items and your enthusiasm is very refreshing! Good luck in your future treasure hunts!

[@barbara-pigeonbray4579]

Love the Little Golden Books........we collect them. Thank you for sharing the fun : )

[@lajunecrockett2381]

I have 3 boxes of little golden books....she should have brought them all...

[@missysanders83]

Love the Dot comic! I used to have a bunch when I was little☺ great finds

[@MisterTee2010]

Nice haul Pammy. Especially the clown and jester outfits.

[@larryboysen5911]

Wow! What an incredible collection of Holiday items! I remember those "Little Golden Books" from my childhood days. Got one of those duck rattles from my young days. That "Five Little Firemen" Golden Book was one of my favorites...been looking for that one for decades! Will have to Google and see if I can locate a copy. Ain't you got fun...getting treasures. Never know what will turn up...that's the fun! Nice mix of items.

[@anitanorman1208]

Oh my what a blast from my past . so many things in this clip that i had when i was a kid . just wow . so glad i found this channel.

[@wendyvan7823]

Great treasures! Love your hair cut ! Thanks for the entertainment!!

[@sandymccoin3783]

Love old books and different stuff u did good love any thing old christmas

[@lorialsbury2185]

You scored! The old mirror and Red Riding Hood caught my eye. 💜

[@lindalavino1279]

Those church sales r brutal!!!! So much stuff for nothing!!!!! Good stuff too! I told/showed all my friends, now they r going religiously!🤣 You can get the best of everything for nothing!❤❤❤❤

[@kathrynlay7428]

Wow I’ve been in antique malls with less stuff than that. Amazing. Wish I were there. Lol. I’d be crushing it too. Love all your videos. Your intro always makes me smile.

[@PaperandMoose]

Thank you1

[@jcbroomfield1205]

You and Commonwealth Pickers are my favorite. I learn so much from you both! You both seem like good people. Thank you for sharing.

[@PaperandMoose]

Thank you for watching! Commonwealth Picker finds some amazing vintage/retro items... I'm still jealous of his big 80s toys haul!

[@martinaschalk-dietrich3314]

Love your excitment and love to the items. My best wishings from Germany. You are great Renee!!!

[@PaperandMoose]

Thank you Martina!

[@jenandharveyb]

Great haul! Those Golden Books were a major flashback to my childhood. My Gram only had a few, so we read them over and over again!!! The Saggy Baggy Elephant was one of them. Thanks for the memories. ❤

[@marydugan3399]

Love the fall and Halloween section

[@rebeccablakely6659]

Awesome finds!

[@kentuckylady2990]

Little Dot was one of my favorite comics back in the day

[@piperjo99]

Nice find with the Bennington pottery. I have been to the store located in Bennington VT. Very cool. They have been around forever. I once found a set of their brown pottery door knobs. I think I gave them to my brother for his house. Love your videos! You always find such great items!

[@fairyGrandmother]

Great finds! Love the costumes, TFS

[@wheebebop3602]

Love your hair cut. What a great sale! Really like your comfortable, easy way of talking on your vids. Let us know the outcome of selling the Bennington pottery. Do go back. With more boxes turned out you will probably see things you didn't see before. Good luck!

[@tipofthemitt1092]

Hi Rene, best church rummage sale EVER! The OZ books are compatible to now a days Harry Potter you could say, great finds !

[@Eveningsong]

You make an adorable clown:) Such neat stuff you got!

[@susanbehring3401]

I love the church and rummage sales.

[@metteskytt3869]

Love the Hair 👍🏻 Awsome find's 👌🏻👍🏻

[@Kinnesan]

I love the graphics on green sheet music.

[@tattievm8486]

I Like little red riding hood! Love from Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

[@librarianleesa]

I used to collect Little Golden Books and I made great use of Collecting Little Golden Books by Steve Santi. You can get it on Amazon fairly cheaply. It's great for understanding dating and how the books were numbered. Many have been reprinted and this guide book helps with that.

[@PaperandMoose]

Thank you for the reference information! I will have to check it out. Always good to further knowledge that will come in useful when out at sales!

[@retrobebop61]

I’m always looking for Little Golden Books illustrated by Mary Blair! Love Mary Blair!!!

[@PaperandMoose]

@@retrobebop61 Her artwork is classic!

[@marisayoung8670]

Leesa Harmon I wish I had kept my little golden books - so lovely! Thanks Renee.

[@trishallain6503]

Hey Renee, I was going to say you could be joker from a pack of cards, have giant cards taped to your costume. Or a joker to entertain the king with your silliness.

[@carolbrunn7807]

Wish we had that kind of church sale here in Western Kentucky 😭I collect all kind of costumes from thrift shopping. Ive been doing this for years. I have a attic walk in closet full. Lots of friends and family dress up every year from that closet. Love you clown costumes I depending on the size of them you could dress a whole family. Thanks so much for sharing this with me! I love you hauls.

[@PaperandMoose]

You can find some pretty great hand-made costumes from thrifting!

[@crystalmcmahon302]

You got a lot of cool stuff love all of it 😊

[@SherryAnnOfTheWest]

Your fish planter really reminds me of the movie "The Incredible Mr. Limpett."

[@lovemyferals]

OMG, I thought the very same thing!😄

[@MimisTreasureCottage]

Great movie!

[@qtpieb2588]

I was thinking isn’t he from that movie! I gotta watch that one again!

[@robinrobinson5757]

Wow! That's a blast from the past.

[@marya.1650]

The costumes ♥️ Love Little Golden Books. I can't imagine how overwhelming that sale must have been. You and Taco must have been at the same sale! The fish!! I Love that green Bennington Pottery dish!!! That would have a permanent place here. And your 2.00 box of ephemera!! Great morning!! Did you go back?? Have a wonderful weekend!! Happy hunting🎉.

[@PaperandMoose]

I did not go back, didn’t have time in my schedule. Definitely planning on attending this sale next year!

[@cordiscoscorner]

Hi Renee. GREAT day at the giant rummage sale. Looks like you had a blast. Good finds. Be well.

[@marybethdueno4806]

Love the ghost and pumpkin, basket, and mirror

[@normaschneiderolson1805]

Love 😍 love ❤️ love 😻 the new haircut‼️ It is so "YOU", in that it totally becomes you! Also love your videos, its great fun to tag along with you while treasure seeking! I so much appreciate your hard work creating the great entertainment that you provide-thank you‼️‼️

[@PaperandMoose]

Thank you Norma, glad that you enjoy the videos!

[@shellytarbet3677]

Cutest clown ever!! I love dress up!

[@shirleywolford3650]

I enjoyed this video so much , the fish planter reminded me of the movie Mr Limpet with Don Knotts. The old mirror was nice but for some reason mirrors tend to freak me out.. lol. Great finds all together 😊

[@Sarahdipity1111]

@Shirley Wolford! RIGHT, My thoughts exactly! I was like that is Mr. Limpit!!!! I loved that movie! 😍

[@shirleywolford3650]

[@jacquiliddell1811]

You look cute I the costume 👍🏻

[@rickeydonald4756]

Renee, the way you love the holidays, you must have had a wonderful childhood. I just wish I had all the Halloween stuff left from 7 children in my family. We had cloth jumpsuit like costumes (1960s). The elephant was my favorite! Our candy bags were wonderful!

[@PaperandMoose]

Holidays were always a big thing when I was growing up! Often times I still feel like I'm 8 years old, but that makes for a fun life. I wish I would still have my costumes from the 80s. Somehow I kept everything else but those seemed to disappear!

[@rebeccanichols1165]

Really great finds. Love the snow man

[@auntbebbo]

Hi Renee!! My late Mother LOVED vintage paper! I must have inherited that gene. I collect 1940-50’s greeting cards, especially Christmas. I enjoy your videos very much. I live in the Louisville, KY area, and can’t find any sales with vintage stuff! I moved here from IL-and knew my town inside and out and the estate sale people. In fact, I bought the house at an estate sale!!! Looking forward to your next video!!

[@PaperandMoose]

That makes for a great story that you bought your house at an estate sale! The old Christmas greeting cards have such colorful, cute designs and images, they make for a great collection.

[@auntbebbo]

I'd love to trade addresses with you-let me know anything specific you're looking for, and I'd do the same. You would think being 20 miles from an old city like Louisville, I'd have better luck finding old stuff. I have one place I go to, I'll have to ask the owner if he knows any big church type sales.

[@pinadevos]

That is what you call a lot of stuff, must have been overwelming but also much fun to dig tru. Wish we had churchsales like this. 👍

[@pinadevos]

And the prices. 😮

[@LL-sq8se]

Great stuff great video!😁🌟🙋👍

[@stache1954]

You're having way too much fun.

Hi Renee, great finds, wish I could find large sales like that. "The Poky Little Puppy" was one of my favs as a child.

Nurse Nancy was my favorite (from the 1950's). It had a real band-aid on the last page !

My bag will have wheels for sure. Maybe that's your big hunt, the best bag on wheels for flea market and auctions.

That was quite a church sale. Hope you go back and show us more stuff.
