OMG.....Chamblin Bookmine!!!!!! We used to go there all of the time when we lived in Jacksonville. The kids loved wandering around and getting lost......and the smell!!! Book lovers understand what I am talking about.
Ive been in book stores before, but none as big as that one. I love old cookbooks and Martha Stewart books. Another Homer Laughlin platter..👍. Take care.
You are so inspiring. I went on Thriftbooks and ordered the last copy of the Better Homes and Garden Cross Stitch Samplers. Of course. I ordered several more books. Who can resist books.
Knoxville, TN and Chattanooga, TN have McKay's used book stores. They're nothing like what you went to, but lots of books nonetheless. Many like what you purchased. I used to have that cross stitch book.
Good Wills that I've been to down here in Florida are so much bigger & nicer than the ones where I'm from (small Tennessee town) I've shopped the ones in Orlando area when my son lived there, but now he's down right by Tampa. I haven't been to the ones here yet. I like the Salvation Army stores down this way. Ohhh the big chunky ornate frame was gorgeous❤Ohhh my goodness.. that bookstore is unbelievable😮 I'd definitely need to go at opening time & stay till closing, I'm sure i could get lost easily😁 We leave tomorrow to come back home.. its going to break my heart to leave my son and my precious little granddaughter💔 Thanks for sharing.
Hello from Jacksonville! I'm so glad you had the opportunity to visit Chamblin! It's nearby me & I have been going to it since high school. It's a fun place to explore for a few hours. They even have an event during October called Lights Out where all the lights are turned off & you can hunt for books just using flashlights. Took my sons to that event last year & they really enjoyed it! Anywhooo... thanks for sharing this video of my hometown! 😄
I have the great fortune to live nearby, and CHAMBLINS 🍄 is a National Treasure 😇during Halloween they create a hunted house in the back of the shop ! Super Spooky !🦩👻🎃
Enjoyed your video. Who was singing the song “Just Give me a Reason?” I searched and found several different artists but couldn’t find the one you used. It’s beautiful, and I want to buy it !
Oh thank you! I love beautiful music and I try hard to pick music that is comforting to listen to on my channel. This is a small artist and she has an angelic voice! I’m so glad to know others like my music selections. ❤️ Here’s a link to the song: th-cam.com/video/xIkriQ9_e-0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=RO7MJfDUqNVtJ_YI
Thank you for the bookstore recommendation!!!! When we lived in Shreveport there was an amazing, giant bookstore. 2 levels, beautiful old building. I loved it so much.
I’m live in Jax!! I’ve been to every thrift store you can think of and been to that book store. There’s one actually Downtown, which is nice too and they have a café,next time you’re in town you should check it out. Glad you had a fantastic trip !!!!
I live in Jacksonville. Chamblains book mine is a treasure trove !!! After watching other thrift shoppers on You Tube in other states: mainly PA and Oregon, our Goodwills can't compare. But there are other thrift stores and antique shops here that are amazing. Sadly, thrift stores have really raised their prices to an almost retail price or sometimes higher . I still love the treasure hunt though. Yard sales are fun too.
I love everything that Pioneer Woman comes out with. I love how colorful everything is. Loved sharing this adventure with you ❤. Hope you are feeling better. You are so blessed to have a sweet relationship with your daughter-in-law. I have not been as blessed in that area.
Chamblin's is amazing - thank goodness for the invention of cell phones. Before that it would take an hour just to find the other people you came with! Edit: Not that you'd be looking too hard...😄
I live in St Johns. The Goodwill in Mandarin and St Johns are soooo expensive! I moved here 5 years ago after living in NC for 2 years. The NC Goodwill is half the price of Fl.
Love books...daughter is an author of nine. I have the crossstitch book and did the flower one for a church auction a long while back. I hope you do get to experience cook-bake time in kitchen with your grands.
Hi Melissa love all your finds I live in Miami and have traveled to those places you’ve shown I love thrifting as well, I also have one of those wicker heart basket mine it’s just natural color,and what I did was I hung it on the wall as a shelve and put a small ceramic sheep in it and I had it in my youngest daughters room now she’s 34😂 I believe I might still have it in storage,but you could do something like that so that you can always see it not just on Valentines, or as decoration with other baskets on the wall🤷🏼♀️ but anyways thanks for sharing always enjoy your videos, love that you show your trips as well 😊🙏🏻🙋🏼♀️
Hi Melissa Yes we love books. We used to go to Lexington Kentucky for old book thrift stores. Now we mostly find them at estate sales. I especially love old cookbooks. I love Martha Stewart...surprised I dont have some of hers. I do badly miss her magazine. I kept some of hers, especially the Christmas ones. Do you know she was in Sports Illustrated bathing suit edition? I also love books for display..love the gold page ones. I like to buy children's books for the little nieces They are avid readers. Your dog is beautiful.. I for one don't mind him being in your videoes. I wish I liked to travel alone. I don't really enjoy driving. We had a church friend who would drive me to the store and shopping anywhere. I enjoy all of your thrifting❤❤❤
I LOVE Chamblin Book Mine. Go there all the time! My favorite thrift store is the goodwill out at Fernandina Beach. It's a good one! Btw, best dog I ever had the fortune of owning was my much loved Irish. Her name was Brandywine. 🩷🙂
OMG.....Chamblin Bookmine!!!!!! We used to go there all of the time when we lived in Jacksonville. The kids loved wandering around and getting lost......and the smell!!! Book lovers understand what I am talking about.
Yes!!! I always love the smell of books! What a great memory! Thanks for sharing! I’m looking forward to going back next time I’m down there!
It's a great place. We used to go all the time! It's still there
I also remember the smell!! what a treasure Chamberlain Bookmine is!
Ive been in book stores before, but none as big as that one. I love old cookbooks and Martha Stewart books. Another Homer Laughlin platter..👍. Take care.
Amazing wasn’t it?? Thank you for watching!
I’ve heard the thrift stores in Florida are very good especially in certain areas. Thanks for taking us along.
Thanks for watching Pam!
Try Repeate Boutique in Interlachen. Between Gainesville and Palatka. Great prices
You are so inspiring. I went on Thriftbooks and ordered the last copy of the Better Homes and Garden Cross Stitch Samplers. Of course. I ordered several more books. Who can resist books.
Oh what a sweet compliment, Rhonda! Thank you for being here! ❤️
Melissa. Love this and all the books and finds ! Thank you for sharing ! I loved seeing the beach and ocean.
Thank you Penny! ❤️❤️❤️
Yay! I live in Jax., Fl. too! Please list the address of the thrift stores! I love thrifting!
Chamberlain is a maze! I always get lost! Next time you are in Jax look for the antiques shops on Park street, specially Southern Crossings!!
Knoxville, TN and Chattanooga, TN have McKay's used book stores. They're nothing like what you went to, but lots of books nonetheless. Many like what you purchased. I used to have that cross stitch book.
Oh sweet! I’m so excited about the book! And yes we love McKays - especially as homeschoolers we shop there all the time!
Live near there. I love the book store.

I bet it was so hard to leave! ❤️❤️❤️
Chamblins has a second location in downtown JACKSONVILLE, steps away from our main library 😊💝📚💝
The Jax beach goodwill is one of the best ones around. So clean and always has quality stuff

I enjoy the Goodwill book stores in Sarasota, FL.
Nice! Are there Goodwill stores just for books?
I have the great fortune to live nearby, and CHAMBLINS 🍄 is a National Treasure 😇during Halloween they create a hunted house in the back of the shop ! Super Spooky !🦩👻🎃
That Bookmine store is a Gold mine!!! I would get lost for a couple days in there!! I love thrifting books❤
Isn’t it though?! If you love books it’s a must visit! ❤️

Your dog is gorgeous! I love Irish setters.
Thank you! She’s such a great dog and we adore her! ❤️ Do you have one?
I could get lost in the Book Mine store… reading is my favorite pastime❤
Yes! What do you like to read? Do you have a favorite author?
@@Melissa.Ringstaff my favorite author is L.M. Montgomery who wrote Anne of Green Gables amongst others

Thank you Elizabeth! That’s so neat, what fires your daughter write?
Yep I live in Jax. 2 Chamblins here

I’ll have to give it some thought! Thank you for sharing! ❤️

Yes Martha looked amazing!! Thank you for watching Rita and always chatting with me. ❤️
Such a beautiful dog, she can join the video anytime!😊
Oh thank you! ❤️
You must watch the movie “Julie and Julia”
💜
Prices are a little high
That’s exactly why I don’t go to goodwill. Everything is donated but yet they charge an arm and a leg
I live not to far from Jacksonville
Seemed quite pricey
Prices in Jax goodwill are ridiculous, if you want to sell items list them to sell not to look pretty on the shelf!! 🙄
I LOVE Chamblin Book Mine. Go there all the time! My favorite thrift store is the goodwill out at Fernandina Beach. It's a good one! Btw, best dog I ever had the fortune of owning was my much loved Irish. Her name was Brandywine. 🩷🙂
