Never in a million years would I have believed I would enjoy watching someone shop garage sales. This is fun! 😂💙

First time seeing one of your videos, but I wanted to comment on how respectful and carefully you handled every item. Even though they’re getting rid of it, it’s still someone else’s property and you handled everything with great care. I appreciate that and can tell you’re a very sweet person. You just gained a new subscriber.

Yeas ago I allowed people into my parents garage. My dad was a woodworker and he had also owned his own auto repair 50 years prior. I explained that I hadn’t gone through the cabinets yet so please show me what you grab. I saw a woman grab at something while her husband was trying to distract me and she ran out to her truck with whatever it was. I sold him about $60 worth and as he walked away I said Sir your wife not only stole from me but from my 85 year old mom as well. Keep that in mind when you go to list whatever it was she felt necessary to take from me. About an hour later he showed back up. He had in his hand a devise that was over 50 years old that did metric and standard measurements. Handed me $100 and said I’m sorry that happened and it didn’t sit well with me. I looked it up and it was about a $50 item. Guess he felt so guilty he over compensated for his wife being a thief.

It would have been really frustrating having her take back things, but you were so kind and respectful.

Last year my 17 year old niece came to visit my family. She had bought a jacket with her own money. She did not wear the jacket until she arrived to keep it in perfect condition. My daughter took her and all of her cousins to an amusement park. The next day she remembered that she had left the jacket in my daughter's car. My daughter, being very organized with three children of her own, had cleaned her car out and given everything she didn't recognize to the Goodwill. When the mistake was realized my son-in-law and nephew went to every Goodwill in town. They were unsuccessful in finding it. She was heartbroken but tried very hard not to show it. Watching resellers on the YouTube I started checking eBay for her jacket. I found it! I mailed it to her and when she opened the package she was beyond ecstatic! The reason I am writing this to you is to thank you. I just wanted you to know that sometimes you fix broken hearts with all your hard work.

Big blue ikea bags! Makes it so much easier to collect and keep track of and keep folks out of your stash.

Girl I know it was frustrating when she took stuff back. But because you are so friendly and respectful you got to get an early start on the good stuff and she let you go where I’m sure others didn’t get to go. Kindness pays? What great finds.

I bought the Tupperware Servalier canisters in harvest gold back in the early 70’s & so did my mother in law. I still use them. They keep your sugar, flour and cornmeal so good and I like that you can take off and put the lid back on one handed. When my in laws passed & we were cleaning out their house I found and kept hers too. She had tons of Tupperware but a lot of it in the softer plastic had become sticky and I didn’t keep it but those canisters are still great over 50 years later. OMG, hard to believe they’re over 50 years old.

When you went back the second time. Those dark green glass bowls that were next to the dog you picked up, omg! I wish I had those. That color green is. Very vintage. Dark green and amber. Beautiful.

This brought back memories of about 30 years ago when I was a picker/soon to be homeschooler. I only bought for myself- never resold. Thirty years ago that wasn’t “a thing”. We home schooled the five kids. The b/g twins are a dual master’s degree financial analyst and a school teacher and the next one in birth order is a PA Cardiologist. The two youngest are still in college. I stopped being a picker when I found a home based business that exploded on me and I did that for twenty years until my health caused me to need to retire. Fond memories of picking through garage sales, though! My parents still enjoy it!

I REALLY almost get sick to my stomach when I see someone walking away from the pile they're making to look for more stuff. People will steal out of your cart at the thrift store when you turn your back for just a couple seconds, so you KNOW they'll take from your stack at a garage

[LindaIrwin]

I really enjoyed your video. My late husband and I use to frequent yard sales every weekend looking for treasures. He passed away in 2013. Your video brought back lots of fond memories we shared. Thank you!
You were so respectful and thoughtful of her property. You put everything back in the boxes and closed them just as you found them. no one does that. I have had yard sales and people just rummage through it and it's a disaster. They don't respect it. Just because it's a garage sale does not mean it's not valuable merchandise. People should always be considerate and respectful of one's property.
Thank you for doing so and setting an example for others. God bless you. Have a blessed day! I subscribed. I'm 63 now and don't get to go out anymore but I enjoyed watching you find treasures. Best of luck!!! 😊

You are so polite and kind. Really enjoy watching your videos. Thank you for being a very kind Ebayer.

[wandasetzer]

So interesting! You have a lot of energy, good manners, a cheerful demeanor, and know your stuff. I'm going to watch more of your videos, if only for entertainment. If only more yard sale shoppers were like you.

Last Saturday morning I had an estate sale to myself, I showed up to do a drive-by at 7:25 they open at eight, they were standing out in the driveway with some stuff so I stopped and said hey can I come up or should I wait they said come on up, so I had the place to myself for 30 minutes it was unbelievable I got some major profits.

[kariem]

Considering everything she got I personally think she hit the jackpot. Garage sales are just that a garage sale. Its not Walmart or target people. Plus the fact the lady said she wasn't done and its hit or miss.

[Artzandcatz]

I appreciate how polite and kind you are! I’ve viewed other thrifter videos, and one is downright inconsiderate, tossing eyeglasses down, not caring. I unsubscribed, I see you appreciate the other person parting with items from memory lane! Thank you for sharing, I can’t wait to delve into your other videos!

[mothurston]

Well, when you picked up those old TV trays as I used to call them, I tripped out! I had one with Smurfs on it and I had mine when I was about seven years old so that was back in 1981. Pretty cool, if you sell those, I would definitely, buy them from you! Such nostalgia looking through all this stuff with you, thank you for sharing!💯♥️♥️

[kristinorthcutt]

The green plastic bowl with the white lid is also Tupperware. It is a lettuce keeper. My mom had one.

[MaryLBenfield]

I love when you post the actual prices so we can see the reality of how it can be sometimes to buy secondhand. People seem nice but they’ll tell a fib in no time to make a buck.
