You guys do make the bins look fun. One suggestion I would have is to use a mesh laundry bag for the backpack; you can add the towels inside the bag to help clean. The reason I would do this is to not break/tear up your machine; all those strings, zippers and bungee cords can cause damage.👍👏
Karen, Your Husband's eyes are so dreamy. You must melt when you look into his eyes. Wow! You two hit the jackpot today. What a great haul. Wishing you two a wonderful Thanksgiving.
I love the bins! Such fun treasure hunting. Some people in my area spend the day at the bins. I have found amazing things to resell. You guys did great!
I think I have every tour and album t-shirt Elton John ever did! Originals! My little brother was a Pianist and a huge Elton John fan. He saw him several times and had all of his albums. He saved all of the t-shirts and sweatshirts and of course he had so many other bands. I have save them but for the love of my brother I cannot sell them. At least not now. It's been 4 years and I just cannot seem to let go . RIP my sweet brother Eric❤
My #1 favorite Elton John song is "Mama Can't Buy You Love." I remember hearing it on the loud speakers at Walmart several years ago. As soon as I got home, I searched, found it and played it over and over.
@hiyellagal I like Pinky. It's probably because my brother has a vocal demo on TH-cam and did such a good job. I'd only heard it a few times prior to that.
This was a fun video! You and Roger were having a great time at the Bins!!! I love the happy fun time y’all have together!!! Thank you for taking us along!! ❤❤
My son is an Eagle Scout. When he achieved Star rank our Troop would buy the Scout a backpack with external frame. He’s now 44 and still uses that backpack! He’s been to Isle Royale National Park several times. You must take your trash with you when you leave. Wolves, moose and great adventures. We are native Michiganders.✋🏼 The dog was a boxer.
Great video! Love your channel. When you show this thrift side at the bins, it's sad to me to see such waste. I'm so overwhelmed with the amount going to the landfills. I appreciate you all the more. Thank you both.❤
Honestly…you guys are the most photogenic couple ever! I love how you start your day together, and enjoy doing exactly the same thing…what a great partnership!!❤️🫶🏻❤️
Never underestimate bins that have been picked over! I have found stacks of cashmere sweaters, St. John, Lilly Pulitzer- all the good things! I also found a Steiff Bear from the 40s that sold for $220 in 3 days. Paid 37 cents!
I watch all your videos. I just wanted to say that both of you are so cute together. It makes me smile. Thank you for the time you put into this great channel !
“You’re the Queen!”. Lol, I love Roger. This video had me laughing so much and it was so fun to see you guys being silly and enjoying each other‘s company. You’re such a cute couple. It was very interesting about the bins because videos I’ve seen from other creators at the bins have been much more disorganized than where you guys were. I’ve never seen bins with specific categories such as holiday, books, etc. And what a fantastic haul y’all found! I will be eyeing a couple of those things when they appear in your store. ❤
Awesome finds! Thank you for the shout out so much!❤ You got me started selling on eBay 4 years ago! Which lead to me finding my first sewing machine. You played a big part so thank you🙏
Love watching your videos. I was very disappointed that you didn’t purchase that beautiful crocheted blanket. The off white one. I made one for a baby blanket years ago. It took at least 40 hours to make one the size of a baby blanket so someone put lots of hours into the one you left behind.
Love the pillows, but a good haul all around. Your Halloween story reminded me that when big kids stole my little boy’s trick or treat bag, people felt so sorry for him they gave him a new bag and much more than he would have had otherwise. Such kindness!
With my anxiety, I can't do the bins. Also, I don't have the temperament to deal with the grabbing and snatching. Although, your bins are roomy, and didn't seem as frantic.
Hi Karen.... Just a little tip ..... I will often use "spray and wash" and let the item sit for a full day before washing. This way, the spray can really do its job in penatrating the stain(s)....works really well.
Hello you two 👋 It looks like you had a good experience at the bins, which is wonderful. I’ve been a bit scared to try it, but will definitely give it a shot someday. Have a beautiful Sunday ❤
I love the bins! I let the aggressive folks go first as they are trying to make a living and I’m just having fun. The workers are so nice and helpful to explain the rules to rookies like me.
I’ve had the best deals from bins. Especially since regular Goodwill is ridiculous. I will say I don’t rely on reselling for a living, but as a fun reseller, it’s great. I really enjoy your videos. You guys,as this is your living, people don’t realize how much work this is. Kudos, love seeing your videos and your beautiful home. Happy Thanksgiving ❤️
The owl pillow is traditional rug hooking made of wool. Needs to be washed in cold water, wrap in towel to get most water out. Lay flat to dry. If you have a wool wash I would use that. FO NOT MACHINE AND ASH OR PUT IN DRYER.
Hi Karen- I used to work at a thrift store that used a water & alcohol spray that we mixed up ourselves to sanitize our pillows and linens. We had to attach a special tag and date it as a state regulation for reselling used linens. You may want to check into this to save you washing and dry cleaning time.
Roger, one of my fave reseller TH-camrs, Locker Nuts (Jack), got 2-3 huge storage units filled with model trains mostly never opened/NIB and other models like planes, etc. You would have loved them. Karen, the cleaning segment of the backpack was great. Cute boxer dog! Love the owl pillow - Karen, another reseller I watch is Thrift Adventure PNW (Amy) and she sells vintage pillows on Chairish and makes a lot on each one (sometimes $100s). Hewlett-Packard is HP (printers, computers, etc.). That was a well-mannered Bins! Love that mandala tablecloth/wall hanging and the Cotton House pillow case! You're the queen! Excellent find of that clarinet. Have a great week!
You guys are the sweetest. Everytime my kids hear me watching y'all's videos my kids say hey mom remember when you met me Roger!? My daughter and I were shopping in the goodwill y'all always go to and it was such a delight to meet Roger indeed! Enjoying all the videos. Also, Walmart has some cool blow molds. We recently bought the nativity holiday time one. It's a nice vintage look for cheap!!!! 🎉 Hope you have a happy thanksgiving 🦃🍽️ 🧡 may God bless y'all
So glad I watched this! An outlet opened up 30 min from me. This confirmed I do not want to go 😂! Looks like so much trash and so many rules haha! I'll stick to estate sales but your video was sure entertaining so thanm you!
Hi Karen and Roger! I like the bins but don't go very often. I like to dig but don't like the aggressive digging when the bin first comes out. I wait until the fray settles and most times I can find something great that was overlooked.
I was at the Middletown Outlet once and a lady next to me said “Do you think this is a real mouse?” 🐁 as she was holding a dead mouse with her bare hands 😮.
In shopping at the bins in the Twin Cities, items like blankets, quilts, larger toys, ice skates & other awkward or heavier items are sold by the piece. Still cheaper than the regular Goodwill & by the piece is cheaper than by weight. Some people drop off items at the Bins & not at a Goodwill store.
Cool Finds! you guys are such a cute and funny couple. Ya'll inspire me to get out and do some treasure hunting myself. Thanks for sharing, I love your videos, so informative, such as how to clean stuff.
If I had the space, I would keep a separate washing machine for items sourced, but that is just me. That Indian print cloth is likely a bed covering although it can be used as a throw, a wall hanging or a tablecloth.
2:39 I hate Fed Ex! If I know a seller is using Fed Ex, I will not buy from them. I have had so many issues with them & their customer service is terrible! Anyway, thought you’d like to know that from a customer perspective. Edit- I love the pillows & the squirrel tile! 🦉🐿️!!
Many of the bin stores have a price list up by the register for heavy items that is cheaper then the per pound price. Also, for items like blankets, quilts and golf clubs, they will just make up a set flat fee price when you get to the cashier and it never goes on the scale.
@@lavenderclothesline I mention it because you said you left an item due to it's weight and some of your viewers who try a bin store might not know there can still be a way to buy those heavier items, for even less then the posted per pound price. 🙂
Karen, I have no idea how you can possibly shop one-handed. You are amazing!
I could shop with my toes at this point 😂😂
@@lavenderclothesline 😂🤣

@hiyellagal I like Pinky. It's probably because my brother has a vocal demo on TH-cam and did such a good job. I'd only heard it a few times prior to that.
@@vlrissolo Betcha your brother will be slamming away on a heavenly piano - giving Elton John a musical greeting when he leaves this life...
“Oh you don’t need that finger. You’ve got nine others.” You two crack me up!😂😂
😂

Another Michigan set here. Isle Royale is beautiful.
Isle Royale is beautiful.
I’m a regular viewer but just have to comment that you are a beautiful couple
I agree so glad they found each other 🎉
Thank you so much!! 💜💜
Wow. Thanks for stopping and showing us how to clean the backpack. That was so helpful...I didn't know the settings.
Great video! Love your channel. When you show this thrift side at the bins, it's sad to me to see such waste. I'm so overwhelmed with the amount going to the landfills. I appreciate you all the more. Thank you both.❤
Some of it gets recycled 😊
Loved the video! I've wondered why you don't go to the Goodwill bins more often. I love going to my bins. It's a form of cheap entertainment for me! 😊
It’s harder to film 😊
Honestly…you guys are the most photogenic couple ever! I love how you start your day together, and enjoy doing exactly the same thing…what a great partnership!!❤️🫶🏻❤️

Karen, an hour in the Bins would send me into intense therapy. You are so brave.
@bereatha1 totally agree lol 😆
I’m a New Yorker 😂
You and Roger always bring a smile to my face when I'm a little down. Thank you for that! 🫶🏻🩷
Did you know that you can ship heavy things thru Grayhound bus? We ship sewing machines that way.
I did not know that!
I bought two side tables, and they sent it through Greyhound freight. It can be pretty economical.
Oh wow! Thank you for sharing that info!
Roger has really gotten comfortable with the camera.
Absolutely, he was sooooo shy at the beginning. And understandably!
I think that is a boxer, from what I saw, could not see it too well.
Hello Karen. You are just so funny. I really enjoy your humor and of course your videos. Say Hi to Roger too. ☺️

The dog appears to be a boxer. Super great and loyal dog bread. My dad raised AKA when I was little. 😊
FedEx is the absolute worst. Roger is right to avoid them when possible. Love you guys. ❤
Good morning from Anchorage, Alaska! Currently a cozy 21 degrees.😁🌷✌
With my anxiety, I can't do the bins. Also, I don't have the temperament to deal with the grabbing and snatching. Although, your bins are roomy, and didn't seem as frantic.
The bins give me the bends. 😆
@lindavandermolen7483 😂
The patriotic welcome flag🥰
My bins are in a bad area so I haven't gone because I fear for my life lol
@brendabatt6874 I fear for my life even in a good area. Like getting my arms pulled out of their sockets over a sweater. 😆
The hole in candy bag😂😂😂
I love your trick or treat story. It was so sad but very funny. I enjoy watching you both!!!
No paper bag for our candy. We used pillow cases. They held a lot of candy!
Hi Karen....

My girlfriend took a tablecloth like you found from India and hung it on the ceiling of her outdoor patio it was beautiful
Bundy clarinet from early 70's! I have my original flute in the same case. It's a "school band" brand - workhorse 😄
😮 I Gasped at the same time at the clarinet 😂 ..out loud too!
I see myself digging lol
Long live the Queen!🤴
😂😂😘
Bin videos make me itch and feel very dirty. lol
I love the bins! I let the aggressive folks go first as they are trying to make a living and I’m just having fun. The workers are so nice and helpful to explain the rules to rookies like me.
👀 The giant table cloth from India !
❤❤❤
Could be great cotton fabric for quilting.
I’ve had the best deals from bins. Especially since regular Goodwill is ridiculous. I will say I don’t rely on reselling for a living, but as a fun reseller, it’s great. I really enjoy your videos. You guys,as this is your living, people don’t realize how much work this is. Kudos, love seeing your videos and your beautiful home. Happy Thanksgiving ❤️
Great find on the Clarinet…rare find. Excellent
Great haul. Because you were filming, I was thinking you were missing out. But you did great.
Boxer dog statue. My parents had the porcelain version of the Boston Terrier. Your mandala is a wall hanging.
Happy Thanksgiving to two of my favorite people!!
Happy holidays! 💜💜💜
I’ve washed many backpacks and cloth cases that way. They turn out so nice. Sometimes have to give them a couple swishes to get it all out.
The Sezane tote bag - Sezane is a high-end French clothing and home goods brand - top quality, very popular!
Clarinets can be recorked and repadded. Bundy’s are a decent brand! I think our entire clarinet section in high school had Bundy’s!
The white cloth with blue birds looks like a hand made Guatemalan table cloth. We had a lot of these textiles in my house growing up.
And yes, loomed.
@@cdeleon6888yes. Older textile with a quetzal, the national bird.
@@kima7414 exactly.
Wow, that's interesting that you must buy everything you put in your cart there. I'm glad that rule isn't in place at my bins!
I love the bins I wish Canada had them!!!! You two got the scoops ...wow you two got great T shirts
They have bins all over nova scotia lol
@ k well lucky you
Not to mention from mid/late October to Mid January the USPS implements their “holiday” postal rates too!!!
The owl pillow is traditional rug hooking made of wool. Needs to be washed in cold water, wrap in towel to get most water out. Lay flat to dry. If you have a wool wash I would use that. FO NOT MACHINE AND ASH OR PUT IN DRYER.
Karen, I think your Winnebago shirt might be popular right now with the amount of Van, Rv'er, truck life channels.
Living in the trucks and stuff.
🤣IDK bout all this, kinda be like shopping while IN a tornado! Nothing's safe!
What you put in your cart, doesn't mean you have to buy. There are putbacks for a reason, another reseller mentioned to me.
""Can't Stop" is a fun game! .played it with my family for many years; wish I had it!
I think it’s so great that you have a partner in crime to work with now. I love that you find items for each other. ❤❤
I love how you teach about how you wash items.
The Halloween story how very sad almost made me cry, little Karen no candy! 🤣😂 I want to send you a bag of candy now! 😂😊
😂 you are so sweet!! 💜💜💜

We had to attach a special tag and date it as a state regulation for reselling used linens. You may want to check into this to save you washing and dry cleaning time.
The alcohol doesn’t wash the item unfortunately 💜
I heard some reseller gets a better rate at her bins. Her employees at her bins know her. I wish I could too.
You have such a calming voice!
Love the Elton John see him in Las Vegas wow what a performer nice find 😊
Captain America needs his tights 😂
Love You guys!💕

Definitely the queen with a still 10 finger king😂 hilorious
😂😂
The tablecloth is beautiful. Can be cut up for fabric projects even if it doesn't come clean
Tablecloth and owl pillow!!🦉👍🏻👍🏻
I think the table cloth is a boho wall hanging. Probably put up with tacs.
Thanks so much on the tips for FedEx and on the backpack appreciate it thank you
So glad I watched this! An outlet opened up 30 min from me. This confirmed I do not want to go 😂! Looks like so much trash and so many rules haha! I'll stick to estate sales but your video was sure entertaining so thanm you!
I played the clarinet in the marching band in High School lol. 😊
Even if that clarinet doesn’t work or can’t be fixed, some people make lamps out of them

Toy dog looked like a boxer.
What a great haul! Such fun watching you and Roger!❤️🇨🇦

Roger, Fed Ex did the same to me when I sent out a golf club. I had the exact size too. I won’t ship anything Fed Ex anymore.
Just fabulous!

looking cozy in the car, Hi from The Netherlands
Never know what you’re going to find! Anything is possible. I could probably do that but we don’t have bins in Dallas. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
That's funny! I watch another reseller like Karen and she resides in Dallas and shops the bins 3-4 times per week. She averages $5-7K per month.
We have 3 in Houston . I would think Dallas would have a few !!
