I remember when I first began shopping at Thrift stores, my husband was upset with me because we both had good jobs. I had a very nice wardrobe, compliments of Thrift stores. I have never been a person who cared about "Labels", buying expensive clothing. I was the one always at a clearance rack in clothing stores. When I finally got him to come with me, he was hooked. When you donated to the Salvation Army, they would give you a coupon, spend $25.00 get $10.00 off. He got hoodies, nice shirts, both long and short sleeve, shorts, jackets, etc. Dan, the door to the white cabinet is sitting on top.
We have a St Vincent de Paul here in San Digeo. They help everyone in need. Plus they have some of the best stuff that you don't really need but will buy anyway!!! Thanks Danno..... always love it when you show us fun videos!! Hi Jess!
I found a nice picture at a thrift store here, had expensive matting, glass and framing worth way more than the $20 I paid. Got it home, realized it was not a print but original signed painting. There was a tag on the back from a high end gallery in Washington DC. Researched the artist online, the prints were going for hundreds of dollars so an original was a great find.
I found a painting once at an antique store for $80. I didn't buy it because I knew I would get yelled at. I realized it was probably done during the American Impressionist era and worth thousands. I went back to get it. It was gone!
Great trip today. If I were starting out today, yes, I would furnish my home from thrift stores. As it is, since I have retired, I have not been to any malls. I enjoy the thrift stores more. I find everything that I need for my home and to clothe myself at thrift stores. I wish that I had realized how great they were earlier in my life. My problem is that I often buy too much at thrift stores because the price is so “good”. TY for taking us there, Danno!
We love going to our Habitat Restore Thrift Store. Especially Thursdays...military discount day! I'd have totally gotten that red flashlight! lol I think the nice silver dish was a chaffing dish. You can keep something warm in it with a candle or steno underneath.
I will still occasionally visit Sal Army or Goodwill but they have both become increasingly expensive, especially considering the merchandise is donated to them! I've even seen items from the Dollar stores that are priced twice as much or more. Kinda nervy. 😕 Also, since Internet selling has become big business, I've noticed the inventory now leans towards cheap and junkier merchandise. Very few items worth much of anything. I recently read somewhere that the managers sift through incoming donations and keep items for themselves or hold back to sell on the websites. 😮💨
Yes the vintage treasures are rare these days. I heard employees have to wait a certain amount of time after date on item to purchase after on the floor. Don’t know about managers. But I became aware that the goodwill has antique dealers who help them identify and price and probably weed out some very valuable items. The goodwill sells on line as well as on eBay for books etc.
I just donated to Goodwill. They had a large sign in their donation center for employees to pull brand name items to be sent to their website. The quality on the floor is Walmart or less for twice the price of new at Walmart.
I have never found anything good at the bins I shop in Wisconsin. It seems that they take everything from all the Goodwills in WI that didn't sell after two months and bring them to the bin store. I wasn't impressed. But maybe it's different by you.
at st v they pick 2 color tags, for the week ie red and yellow so one color is 1.49 and other is half price. I buy shirts 1.49, jeans 3.99. if say the art picture says 4-y , y is yellow so if that is one of the color tag sale it is half price.
People might want to investigate where these places are donating to and supporting . goodwill and red cross and many other are just like target and many other business .
To be honest, when you are donating your stuff to Thrift Stores, it's not donating, but getting a tax deduction for getting rid of your junk. So you get a tax donation and do not have to pay the local dump fees.
They are too high priced for the really poor and everything they receive is free to them. They throw a lot of things in the trash if they don't get the prices they want. They are raising the prices because more of the middle class are having to shop there and they have have more money to spend then the truly poor. It is so very sad!
My nephew manages a St. Vincent De Paul store. If a person is in need they will give them a voucher for items like clothes, furniture and they even have new mattresses for the beds if their house was in a fire. They will also use the money they make off the store to give cash and provide groceries to people. They provide so much for the community.
St Vincent de Paul, is the International Catholic Charity which helps the homeless and poor. They provide clothes and furniture to those who have lost their items to get back to normal. We don't have their stores in UK, but you can donate to local warehouse SVDP locations. What a nice change it made to cover a thrift store. Thank you Danno this was great.💗💗👵🏴🌹🌹🌹
This would be a good place to go when you and Jess get your house. Lots of reasonable decor. When you first in a house you are so broke from buying it you don't have much for decorating.
In my area in the Eastern Upper Peninsula Michigan we have a resale shop that's run by 5 local churches and Everything is donated and no set price .. donation.They also assistant locals with emergency situations. Workers are volunteers.
Our Goodwill in W. TN has 50% off on the color of the ticket, Blue was last week, and Jeans are $6.99, half off if they were blue. Lots of nearly new baby clothes and toys. We have new fabric, if it suits your needs, for making charity quilts or bibs for nursing homes. Saves driving 2 hrs to Hobby Lobby or Joannes. Flat sheets make great backs for quilts. But has gotten rather expensive on some items. Shoes I never look at, no one has size 5 except Amazon. I order sew on fancy embroidery flowers and put them down 1 leg of my jeans. Fancy them up without being gaudy ugly. Salvation Army closed during the C cough. Turned into a Dialysis business. Don't forget Animal Shelters if looking for a pet. Just be sure they have a good reputation, and give shots, and spay/neuter and chip.
My mind has a thing about wanting to organize similar items together, so disorganized shelves make me really uncomfortable. I had come across a platter with a beautiful rose in the center sitting in a home decor section. Later on, I was passing a section with dish sets and saw the same pattern as the platter, so I got the platter and put it with the matching dishes. I also came across some Red Hat Society items in different areas and I grouped them together on one shelf. It's not easy being me.
Thank you Dano for including this in your vlogs. Here in North Texas we have a grocery store Town Talk - they source food and some items that might otherwise go elsewhere. Careful shopping brings wonderful bargains and good use of ones money. America has or a long time been the land of plenty. so much waste. I personally would like to change that no matter what. thank you again!
Nice change of pace. Check out the others in your area too. Our Salvation Army has a half price sale every Wednesday. T-shirts are also on sale at 50 cents each. Other thrift stores also have daily sales. Our local Goodwill has most of the shoes for $5.99 every day. Looking forward to more of these thrifting videos.
I like that $4.00 hand painted picture of a house. I like the Grandma Moses type paintings that aren't perfect. They have a charm all their own. I love seeing how excited you are in St. Vinny's. I've been shopping resale and rummage sales since I was ten and I'm 63! It never get's old. I could never afford new and that's OK. I always find what I need in the way of clothes, shoes, coats, housewares and furniture. Thrift shopping is my way of life. Welcome aboard Danno!
I'm here in New Jersey. The only thing I bought consistently from a thrift store (Unique Thrift) was Sag Harbor (or similar brand) long-sleeve shirts in a rainbow of colors for work. Usually no more than $5.00. Polyester with a touch of Spandex. In the winter, I would wear a turtleneck top underneath. From dryer to hanger, no ironing. The funny thing is I never saw those shirts in regular stores.
I just went to the thrift store yesterday. I got 5 blankets for my daughter. 2 of them were for a king bed , 2 queen and a full. $30 for all. I got 6 silicone mats for baking for $5, brand new. I look for brand new items for gifts. Last year I got winter coats for $2 each. They were all brand name. I bought 6, gave some away. They have books for children 10/$1. Hardback books for .50. I find fabric, brand new boots and shoes,The most that I paid was $9.I love the older sheets with real cotton. I love them over carefully and buy them. Check your electronic items carefully, I ask to plug them in an outlet. I have found quality older items, like Revere Wear pans, iron skillets. It’s nice for me and I am glad to donate my items to them.
I used the glassware with stems to make candles in for Christmas presents last year and to keep in case the power goes out, We had to use them last time we lost power. And juice glasses, I look for half-price ones, Hub is good at dropping them and breaking them.
@@AdventureswithDanno Right in Jess' creative wheelhouse. I used a combo of soy pellets I ordered from Amazon along with the wicks, I wrapped the extra wick around sicks from the $ Tree to hold them straight to cool and used unscented Goodwill candles for color. Excess is stored to make more.
@@AdventureswithDanno They screen each Vet, and they help. We donated a lot of household and furniture when we downsized. They pick it up, tax deductable too.
Here in Michigan, we have Veterans thrift stores. The last Tuesday of every month, the whole store is 50% off. Check them out if you have one near you 😊
Danno, I heard another TH-cam creator at a Goodwill store, say that if you ta lk thru the video over the copywrite music in a store TH-cam does not have an issue with it. In case you run into that situation again. Thanks for all you do.
Danno, thank you for doing this video. It was great. There's nothing like a good treasure hunt. Plus, everybody wins. You can donate items if you are downsizing, provides much needed employment for people and a valuable service to the community. I love it!
I love thrift store shopping! I don’t know where a St. Vincent is around me, but we have Goodwill and Salvation Army! I bought a 350.00 purse for 15.00, and 100.00 MK ankle boots for 10.00 at goodwill!
My grandson needs work pants definitely going to check our St. Vincent's DePaul's out. I use to buy clothes for my grandkids when they were little. I like to look at the purses. Just love thrift stores. I got a baby bed at Goodwill very nice one and bed frame.
Good morning, Danno & Jess, my brother bought an old M&M guy from our Goodwill, for a 1.00, and it turned out to be worth 100.00 on Ebay. What a find! Thanks for taking us thrift shopping, I enjoyed it.😄
Great video! Thanks for taking us along. I was waiting for you to mention the roll of toilet paper 🧻 sitting on the shelf with the lamps! 😂 Or was it an actual lampshade? They may have clothing sales during the week. Ask about them. One of our stores (no longer here) used to have a "kitchen sale" every year the first week in November. Everything was $.25. It was stuff that had been sitting on the shelves for a year and they wanted it gone for inventory. Things like dishes, glassware, cooking utensils, kitchen towels, etc. You could find some nice, cheap Christmas gifts.
I like to buy my cats some pretty or cute plates to eat on 😂. And of course they get a plate for the different holidays. I also buy cross stitch embroidery books and can sometimes find good craft supplies. Thank you for showing us the thrift store. I also found a really cool big Cincinnati Reds mug and a Reds championship glass and I don’t even watch them but love the mug 😂.
When buying lamps, check the cords for fraying or signs of chewing from pets or rodents (shorts). Spark arcs over one of these shorts, you have a fire.
Lots of shoes people wear once or twice. The special occasion shoes. They sit in closets for a while because women are usually particularly what goes with what. A big no no are slippers. Careful with sport shoes, but young people "don't like" a lot of shoes. If shoes in general look uncomfortable, they probably are. More expensive shoes are better made. Better balance, better materials, more comfortable. Boots is hit or miss. Generally, there are very few shoes you can't wash, and most of those can be washed in a washing machine. Generally, if you're not planning on getting walking shoes that you're going to wear every day, or slippers ( I consider them underclothes), lots of shoes are usually barely worn, so simply no time to mold them. Also, can always add your own insoles.
Last year I bought a bracelet that was in a bin listed at 3/$1.00 and I took it to my jewelry store and he gave me $95.00 for it. In small print on the inside of the bracelet it said K14 instead of 14K so people probably passed it up but when the owner of the jewelry store tested it with his machine, it was indeed 14K. My other best deal of my life was 20 years ago at a rummage sale. It was the last day of the sale and I spotted a small silver serving tray. She wanted to get rid of it so she let me have it for $1. I sold it at a jeweler for $150.00.
Great video. I looked online and I there are no St. Vincent de Paul in the city where I live . There are some in surrounding towns . My husband and I will definitely be checking out this thrift store. Your St. Vincent de Paul is awesome! Finding that Publix shirt was funny especially to me because that’s a major grocery store in my area . Danno you’re so thoughtful buying gifts for your Mom & Jessica. Thanks for taking us along on your treasure hunt !
That's strange. I wonder why they do that? Ours will put a Y, R, B, O, etc. It stands for a color. Every week starting on Mondays a different color is 50% off.
Be very careful people with buying used shoes!! Toe jam big time. Hey, my dear friend would get brand NEW designer dresses and NEW shoes in thrift stores for $1.00! Shoes - $.50 cents!!! ALL THE TIME. Tags on new blouses - a quarter to 75 cents!!! This thrift store is EXPENSIVE!!
Super-Danno, you are cracking me up! I believe the "church thing" is a chafing dish😅. I had fun at the thrift shop with you. Thanks for this field trip!
St.Vincent's in Bardstown, KY run 'bag sales". You get all the clothes you can cram into a grocery bag for $5. The one in Elizabethtown ,KY has more expensive clothes and they have antiques and collectibles. There are other, single-stores for charities. I like the Hosperus (Hospice) Thrift also in Elizabethtown. The Denver area had all sorts of charity thrifts.
Thank you Danno,for the tour of the St.Vincent Store.They had a lot of nice items there and prices were very reasonable l felt.You did an awesome job showing different categories and sections there.😊l love getting cookbooks at the thrift stores.l collect all kinds of them.especially the old ones.
I looked up the nearest one to me and it’s only one hour away and we’re going Friday. Thanks for telling us about them and I’m excited. Very good video. Thanks for sharing with us. Love 💕 and Hugs. ❤❤❤

I noticed that, too
It's good to shop thrift or all these new perfect items go to landfill.
My husband was the same way. Haha. Once I got him to go into Goodwill he was hooked. Now I have to drag him out of any thrift store.
@@fayefrady4266 Too Funny!!
Lol, your "church collection plate" is a silver playted chaffing dish for a buffet table. 😂. But fun finds. Always an Adventure.😊
Maybe for church potlucks? 🤣🤣🤣

Cracked me up calling a chaffing dish a collection plate from the church!!
🤣🤣🤣That was funny!
I loved that this store hung the jeans and pants SIDEWAYS brilliant ,that way you can read the inside lables 😎
I thought that too! 👍
We love going to our Habitat Restore Thrift Store. Especially Thursdays...military discount day!
I'd have totally gotten that red flashlight! lol
I think the nice silver dish was a chaffing dish. You can keep something warm in it with a candle or steno underneath.
Habitat is one of our favorites too. We always find something good.
Another place to donate usable furniture is the Alpha Omega House which helps Veterans who had addiction issues but now are 'Clean' get housing.
I went to Community Aid today. I got a long winter coat for 12.50. I couldn't find one that fit at regular stores. Quite the find!

Totally agree, our Goodwill is expensive with the shelves and racks heaping to spilling over. You'd think that a lower price would sell more items
@@shirleybader8124 I don't shop at GOODWILL they are corrupt!! They pocket the money!!

Your St. Vincent de Paul is the nicest I've seen, and with great prices.
Love this shopping trip, wish I was there..😊
Good morning Danno and Jess!
Good morning
Have you been to the goodwill bins? I go to the one in dayton would love to see a video of one in Cincinnati
I have never found anything good at the bins I shop in Wisconsin. It seems that they take everything from all the Goodwills in WI that didn't sell after two months and bring them to the bin store. I wasn't impressed. But maybe it's different by you.
Love the tour . Just never know what you will find ❤. Super Man great shirt
Lol. Pool cover
That was fun
There is a sign when you first walk in the store with what's on sale that day. So that 4.99 shirt might be sold for 2.50 if it's on sale that day.
at st v they pick 2 color tags, for the week ie red and yellow so one color is 1.49 and other is half price. I buy shirts 1.49, jeans 3.99. if say the art picture says 4-y , y is yellow so if that is one of the color tag sale it is half price.
Nice! 👍
....Twice as Nice is great. Hoodies and jeans and gym pants dirt cheap and like new. Shoes too.
Mishawaka Indiana goodwill
Men's and women's shirts are $8
Be careful buying furniture and clothing because of bedbugs. I wash the clothes in hot water when I get home.
st v does have a place to plug things in to try. i got a kitchenaid blender new with instructions...for $10 therre
BE CARFUL MY MOTHER IN-LAW BROUGHT A NEW COUCH FROM THRIFT STORE IT HAD BED BUG'S

I can't get onboard with their mission statement, my beliefs are different.
Thrift store are a good place to shop but some are going up just like everything now days
Yes they are. That's why here in Colorado I go to ARC on Saturdays for 50% off & then again on Tuesdays for seniors!
Goodwill is outrageous!

I also buy cross stitch embroidery books and can sometimes find good craft supplies. Thank you for showing us the thrift store. I also found a really cool big Cincinnati Reds mug and a Reds championship glass and I don’t even watch them but love the mug 😂.
I collect Lighthouses too.
When buying lamps, check the cords for fraying or signs of chewing from pets or rodents (shorts). Spark arcs over one of these shorts, you have a fire.
It's never wise to buy used shoes because they're already molded to the pre owner's feet and it's not a good policy
Lots of shoes people wear once or twice. The special occasion shoes. They sit in closets for a while because women are usually particularly what goes with what. A big no no are slippers. Careful with sport shoes, but young people "don't like" a lot of shoes. If shoes in general look uncomfortable, they probably are. More expensive shoes are better made. Better balance, better materials, more comfortable. Boots is hit or miss. Generally, there are very few shoes you can't wash, and most of those can be washed in a washing machine. Generally, if you're not planning on getting walking shoes that you're going to wear every day, or slippers ( I consider them underclothes), lots of shoes are usually barely worn, so simply no time to mold them. Also, can always add your own insoles.
Danno, really enjoyed this vid. Hope you return again. Tks. Karla in Cali.
I love shopping at my St Vincent store. TFS your store 😊
😃👍
Andromeda Strain was the best Michael Crichton book
Great video 😃. Hope you will do more of these. I'm sure you were not able to cover even half. Thanks 👍
Yay, the thrift store!
I won't buy items unless I know the price of them beforehand.
You did a great job going through the store. I've seen thrift store shop with me videos and you nailed it!
I used to go to the one on Reading Road, a lot of great collectibles found there.
I loved this video! Please do this again sometime with Jess.
Last year I bought a bracelet that was in a bin listed at 3/$1.00 and I took it to my jewelry store and he gave me $95.00 for it. In small print on the inside of the bracelet it said K14 instead of 14K so people probably passed it up but when the owner of the jewelry store tested it with his machine, it was indeed 14K. My other best deal of my life was 20 years ago at a rummage sale. It was the last day of the sale and I spotted a small silver serving tray. She wanted to get rid of it so she let me have it for $1. I sold it at a jeweler for $150.00.
That's awesome!!
Good Wednesday Hump Day Morning Everyone.... It's Horribly Foggy here in Wisconsin..
It is here in Arkansas also
It was foggy in Appeton too. At least it's not -10 with -30 windchill!
Remove door and add baskets for stuff.
I love thrift shopping!
Danno have you seen the ad Flashfood. It is close dated food that many grocery store participate in.
I've mentioned it to him 2-3 times. I've been doing it for about 3 months. Me and my neighbor split
Great idea - thanks for something totally different - prayers for strength to all from Mt Pocono PA
love shopping like this
put your seeds in there
Wow great place .
Great video. I looked online and I there are no St. Vincent de Paul in the city where I live . There are some in surrounding towns . My husband and I will definitely be checking out this thrift store. Your St. Vincent de Paul is awesome! Finding that Publix shirt was funny especially to me because that’s a major grocery store in my area . Danno you’re so thoughtful buying gifts for your Mom & Jessica. Thanks for taking us along on your treasure hunt !
I'm glad Danno didn't buy any of those grocery shirts or he'd have their customers swearing at him for the high prices!🤣
The letter's on the price is the workers initials who priced it
That's strange. I wonder why they do that? Ours will put a Y, R, B, O, etc. It stands for a color. Every week starting on Mondays a different color is 50% off.
I love shopping at thrift stores. Awesome job Danno 👍🏻👍🏻
Would have loved to known the price of the sewing machine! ❤
Enjoyed the video. Thank you!
Be very careful people with buying used shoes!! Toe jam big time. Hey, my dear friend would get brand NEW designer dresses and NEW shoes in thrift stores for $1.00! Shoes - $.50 cents!!! ALL THE TIME. Tags on new blouses - a quarter to 75 cents!!! This thrift store is EXPENSIVE!!
👍
awesome
Super-Danno, you are cracking me up! I believe the "church thing" is a chafing dish😅. I had fun at the thrift shop with you. Thanks for this field trip!
The cherry mahogany tv cabinet usually starts at about 800 new. It should be easy to find replacement doors.
St.Vincent's in Bardstown, KY run 'bag sales". You get all the clothes you can cram into a grocery bag for $5. The one in Elizabethtown ,KY has more expensive clothes and they have antiques and collectibles.
There are other, single-stores for charities. I like the Hosperus (Hospice) Thrift also in Elizabethtown. The Denver area had all sorts of charity thrifts.
Nothing like turning humans into walking FREE advertising billboards.
Thank you Danno,for the tour of the St.Vincent Store.They had a lot of nice items there and prices were very reasonable l felt.You did an awesome job showing different categories and sections there.😊l love getting cookbooks at the thrift stores.l collect all kinds of them.especially the old ones.
I looked up the nearest one to me and it’s only one hour away and we’re going Friday. Thanks for telling us about them and I’m excited.
Very good video. Thanks for sharing with us.
Love 💕 and Hugs. ❤❤❤

Uh oh, hope they don't get overrun with eBay resellers which drive the prices up 😢
