    Recycle Repurpose Reuse should be all our Motto’s for living our best lives.

    What a wonderful video. Stewart is a gem. You have a good eye and know how to pull things together from fashion to household decor.

    Linda, when it comes to fashion you can do no wrong! Just like your garden!

    This was SO FUN! I loved the format. And Stewart, I think you gave great fashion advice. Goodwill and other thrift stores (in my area Thrifty Shopper and the Salvation Army) use proceeds to provide much needed services to our community. Occasionally, prices seem high for a particular item, but in general, it's still a bargain. Reuse, recycle and repurpose while helping those in need. Win. Win. I like evening times better for TH-cam live. Looking forward to it!!

      And the reality is there are stories of Goodwill's every where throwing a lot of stuff out. They can't keep up with how much they receive. We're a throwaway culture so I think we're doing a service to the environment!

    I have noticed our Goodwill prices are higher but it doesn’t keep me away. I still think recycling is important. I think about 90% of my clothes are thrifted and I get many compliments on my outfits. Love your thrifting videos,😄👍

    Great point about thrift store prices, people can be so petty and unnecessarily critical. You are being economically, socially and environmentally responsible by creating a market for items that would otherwise end up in the landfill. Cheers to you, yet again, Linda!

    • @youbetcha108
      @youbetcha108 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Agreed. Don’t know why I have heard don’t go to thrift stores bc you are stealing affordable things from others who really need it. No! You are buying and if a family person comes in do you think those places charge them or turn them down ? Nonsense. Linda supports their ability to give needy what they need. Keep donating and keep shopping at these places.

    • @SteveL2012
      @SteveL2012 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@youbetcha108 agreed, and further, I have never been in a thrift store with anything remotely like a shortage of goods. It is also absurd to suggest that a TH-cam channel with 150k subscribers has the power to change markets in a country of 330M people.

    Let me just say, I love to thrift/second hand shop, but I rarely go to rummages…I would rather pay that”finders fee”. If I go into a shop and pay a bit more I’m good with it. My goodwill however is not that great whereas where my daughter lives in NC, hers is great! I love how you OWN your second hand vibe!!! Love it Linda!

    Oh so much fun! I love this video and hope to see more like it. I’m really confused about why anyone would say or basically accuse you or other thrifters of driving prices up. Um hello- every thing has gone up. These stores are putting a lot of resources into getting good items and not just junk to sell. Sometimes i think the terminology “thrift store” isn’t relevant anymore because they have really stepped up their game. Anyway, have a great holiday weekend 🇺🇸

  • @pamelaritch8587
    @pamelaritch8587 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    You found some great apparel at your Goodwill. I once owned an original Diane Von Furstenburg wrap dress circa 1975. If I had kept it I could have resold it today for a pretty penny. Great fun!
    Looking forward to the live Wednesday Walkabout; evening is fine with me.

    My friend and I go to the Goodwill Outlet which is where everything is so reasonable. My favorite comment about something I got there was when a woman in the mall asked me what high end store I got my pants from and I told her they were a high end brand that I got at a low end price! When she found out where, she was amazed!
    Keep up the good work, Linda and Stewart!

    I love that you encourage others to thrift! Your idea of using saucers for indoor potted plants is something I do also! I taught my children we look at 50%+ racks first to stretch the clothing budget and when they were small garage sales for winter coats and jackets. While flea markets were something we spent the whole day shopping for yard things and fishing gear, my hubby hunted for and often found. His hobby was rebuilding reels and then selling those once a year and doing it all over again! Thrifting is fun and responsible. I really enjoyed this today. Thank you Linda.

    Fun. Glad to see your shopping spree. I saved an OP shortcut Terri beachy zip up top circa 1985 which my daughter swiped from a closet. She loves that top and it still looks great! I can’t go to thrift shops. I have no self control ! But I do recycle curbside furniture if I can use it. I love to Re do old pieces. It’s my meditation. That and gardening🌺🌺 New York 7a either time works for me for yt live!

    Diane Von Furstenberg created the wrap dress. Really pretty print and it will make a nice robe. Thinking outside the box. Enjoyed your thrifting spree in Little Dot.

    Great fun. It's difficult to see the construction clearly but I think you might find that a seamstress would have very little difficulty opening the neckline on that striking dress.
