THRIFTED HOME DECOR Finds at Huge Trailer Park YARD SALE

30 GARAGE SALES! | RESELLER VINTAGE | GOLF CART SHOP WITH ME
The shock of getting up at sunrise is the price we pay to be first to shop at this first-ever community-wide garage sale at this huge over-55 development! But can you find antiques in a trailer park? With 30 different sales (including an estate sale and a few moving sales) among a group of seniors, we hope there's a chance we'll find some vintage buys we can flip for a profit.
We start on foot at a friend's house, where a Victorian frame, vintage shakers and a gold dresser box with a surprise start our shopping quest. Next door, a full-on estate sale proffers yesteryear's furniture and tshotchkes, kitchenware and even freebees that all have reseller profit potential (and at prices as little as a quarter apiece!). We pass a lot of good new items in boxes that our non-vintage resellers should come grab as well!
Another friend rides off with stacking chairs in her golf cart, then comes back to whisk Beau the poodle and I around to a moving sale (Hall China teapot for $5), a junk sale (four highway signs at $5/each) and a bunch of other vintage bargains. We run into another "friend" from my book that I haven't seen at a garage sale in years! We also run into a great way to illustrate real versus fake McCoy frogs, and a few other good examples to help us tell vintage from reproductions.
Besides the sheer whimsy of shopping by golf cart in a gated community, the most fun and surprising part is how easy it was to accumulate a fun pile of reseller goodies at garage sale prices...all in one place! Community sales are an awesome way to shop for reseller fare (and we might even keep the triangular 1960s shelf for awhile).
Here's a few of the things we see from our golf cart vantage point:
Hollywood regency box, 1962 Seattle World's Fair spoon, oil painting in Victorian frame, Santa & Mrs. Claus shakers, eggplant shakers, 1960s-70s Tupperware, Metlox coffee pot shakers, 1970s burl clock, 1950s hand mirror, globe, cassette box, yard art and tools, Pfaltzgraff Yorktowne tureen,
1950s poker chips, art glass paperweight, Corning Ware, silver plate, Mt. St. Helens ash glass, Capodimonte flowers, Mickey Mouse Applause teapot, Fenton custard glass bud vase, cloisonne pill box, Wade turtles, lamp work deer, 1960s modern bedroom set, 1960s nesting lamp tables, 1920s music cabinet, 1980s brass table set, 1940s end table, 1960s Beethoven metal statue, Swedish stoneware figure, Zap Car, vinyl records, Tom Clark figures, Royal Albert chintz cake plate, elegant depression glass, 1980s boom boxes, vintage scarves, DeLongpre print, vintage lamps, regulator clock, washboard, Seattle print, Karastan carpets, 1920s stretch glass bowl, costume jewelry, iron garden cart, Betty Crocker recipe file, paperweight vases, etc.

Garage sailing with George and a poodle in a golf cart sounds epic. Epic!!!!

[@judithjanes5738]

The green rectangular Tupperware container was designed to keep celery fresh in the fridge.

[@PK-bh1ww]

I have a huge collection of the Corning Ware Blue Cornflower pattern. At least 50 pcs. (bakeware, casaroles, fry pans small and large, bowls with handles and lids, cake pan, loafs pans, tea pot, ccffee pots etc..) Including the white hot plate to cook in which I do. I use all of it pretty much exclusively. Love it.

[@terilonon3858]

I love how down-to-earth you are! I also appreciate the fact that you don't judge the trailer park-so many people do.

[@rosemarynewman1876]

It's not a trailer park. It's and upscale manufactured home community surrounding a golf course. He shouldn't have called it a trailer park.

[@wizphotogirl]

@@rosemarynewman1876, it has trailers in it! I can see them in the video! You've just shown yourself judging. There are plenty of great trailer parks out there!

[@rosemarynewman1876]

@@wizphotogirl You obviously missed my point if you think I am judging trailer parks. The video starts out by saying people shouldn't be afraid to go into trailer parks and they can find good things to buy there. That sounds pretty judgemental to me. I know there are many great "trailer parks." And most of them are no longer called "trailer parks" and haven't been called that for decades. They are called manufactured homes. And the park he was at is called Belmor Park Golf & Country Club and has a has a website - check it out.

[@nadiacarpenter442]

I understand where she is coming from people do judge by demographics always have always will unfortunately. George is one of a kind for sure

[@karenjohnson7329]

I literally gave away a Rosamor service for 24 (full formal service, including serviceware) to a thrift run for the local women’s shelter. It was my gradmother’s and it killed me to let it go. Nobody else in the family wanted it, and I’ve moved it 4 times in 9 years-and not used it. It was time.

[@wandaarnold7395]

I thought of Danni Ackerman when you got the little turtles!

[@george.carrasco]

Great video George! Thanks for sharing!

The large green Tupperware is celery box,

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Welcome back! I've got a lot more to come

[@marilyndudek3356]

That was really fun. Lots of good stuff. I have green long green Tupperware container and when I bought it (about 50 years ago) it was called a celery keeper and had a grid in the bottom so the celery didn't sit in water. Thanks.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

They had the other piece that did have the grid!

[@KJ-gc8oq]

I have 5 long, green Tupperware containers, all with grid. I inherited them from my mother and i use all of them in my larder fridge.

I found a real McCoy frog at Salvation Army in St. Pete last week. She put it down on the shelf--and I picked it right up! So fun.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

That's great! I notice Salvation Army in Pinellas County has stuff sometimes

[@MimisTreasureCottage]

Those little eggplant S & Ps are adorable. Boom boxes used to have really high resale value. "Quack" You make me smile. A Treasure Craft Elf for 50 cents!!!?? Wow! I like that music cabinet. It's a great crafter's cabinet for paper.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

They sure are! I know there were a lot more things I could've bought. The music cabinet could be great for lots of ephemera, you're right!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

A few people scolded me for that one!

[@martisteele6542]

I love these neighborhood sales, there are usually great things!

[@marciamcwilliams9747]

You missed the 127 yard sale here in Kentucky. But you didn't miss much. The weather was to nasty . It was hot and it rained and rained and rained. It was ruddy. So muddy we didn't even get out of the car most places. I hope next year is better.

[@jostahl394]

Love shopping in Senior neighborhoods! They almost always have great treasures! First time watching your video. Enjoyed it very much as you are so wonderfully informative!❤🙏🇺🇲

[@lillianwilliams5510]

both of the mcCoy looked authentic. it just seems because of the size, it just wasn't as large but look very close and I don't see a great difference.I do love the chintz serving shelf plater

[@tracy85777]

You drove me crazy going so fast through all that! I would've bought so much more but I get that it's all about resale for you. I wish they had garage sales like that here! I'm never moving to Florida. I was there once in the summer and I thought that I was going to die! It's VERY humid and hot here in Arkansas but I never got dry when I was in Florida. I had the worst blisters all over my feet! It was crazy. The humidity is like trying to breathe water there LOL! Glad you got some things you wanted and I loved the yard art your friend got. Happy hunting.

Nice community sale! My favorites were the blue Hull teapot and the Sorrento music box. I'm glad the homeowner mentioned the Swarovski crystal sugar container because I have one just like it I bought at a thrift store but I had no idea it was Swarovski. Little Beau was adorable. Thanks George!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Oh, thank you! Beau is very sweet. I am glad the homeowner had that and you were able to find out something about one of your treasures!

It's so funny, my mom bought small bread loaves and always used it for that so I had no idea!

[@angelsvintagetreasures]

I agree about finding things in trailer parks. Of course, how the park looks gives you an idea of the quality of the items (honestly). I've learned that in the years I've been hunting at yard/garage sales. I was at a community trailer park sale years ago when I found an ashtray from Pizza Haven. I had recently met my now partner and he had shared with me the story of the restaurant (including the time he worked there). I asked the lady how this ashtray had made it from Seattle to Phoenix, Oregon. I loved hearing her story. Its fun how things move around!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Great story! Pizza Haven was the hangout for teens when I was growing up near Bremerton.

Good evening, George! I'd have had to dug through that fishing tackle box. I like the old lures. Were there any old ones in it? I have several $1.00 poker chips from the QE2. I liked that candlestick phone paperweight. It would be nice just as a novelty item. I'd like to have that Jeannie C. Riley "Harper Vally PTA" album. I'd love to have that Seth Thomas regulator clock! There is a clock repairman close to me, so if it needed anything I have somewhere to take it. That stretch glass piece was a pretty blue. I've never owned a piece of stretch glass. I have a couple of the sick call crucifixes. You racked up, George! Those were fantastic buys! That looked like a really fun community sale! Thanks for the take-along!!!!!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I agree about fishing tackle, I love the old wood lures but I haven't found any at a garage sale since Florida months ago. I should really have bought the piece of stretch glass, even Xeno (who's big on selling and less on buying) said he liked that one! The sick call sets have always fascinated me too.
