Wow Jami! You win the packing award on this trip! You out did yourself! There wasn’t room for a toothpick more. Gosh, PA has the BEST thrifting!
There really wasn’t lol. Somehow I always buy just enough junk 😂😂
Girl, you dont mess around, you are awesome.
Jami, I believe the Fenton white glass bowl is an epergne. The "holes" hold horn-shaped vases with ends that fit into the holes and are held in place with special rubber inserts. They have frilly ends at the top of the vases. If you look it up, you'll see what I mean. 😊 Nice finds❣🦋
In NEOhio , the Goodwills are building their own buildings. Then the prices seem to be a little higher. Still worth a look see though.
cobalt blue pitcher is a Shirley Temple pitcher.
Welcome to Pennsylvania .... BLESSED....
Thrilled to see you were here in Pgh.! CJ is the best, and that was the Hot Metal bridge you were on. Love watching you for all the tips, enthusiasm and inspiration!
Hot metal!
If you visit out east I will be happy to show you all the good junking near me. :-). Love to see all your treasures!
Super ENJOYED this video. I love everything especially the , metal salvage, and those porcelain knobs. I try to junk when I go out of town too even if it’s just one thing. I haven’t flown and junked yet, but my dream trip is Paris and I WILL THRIFT 🤸🏿♀️
Oooh. The Paris Thrifting was amazing
I live about an hour north of Pittsburgh, Love Construction Junction! Haven’t been there for a while, thanks for the reminder!
That shop! So much great stuff
Those were some great fines I can’t believe he put them back home in the suitcase that was so funny
Very cool finds. I’m gonna start doing that instead of the salt and pepper shakers, magnets, etc….
OH, Jami, Oh my goodness, you are just like me!!!!! traveling, junking and packing. Love you so!
Really fun video and great travel thrifting tips,
Did you say you were in Portersville, PA? I'm like 15-20 minutes away from there and 50 miles NW of Pittsburgh in New Castle, PA. I've never heard you mention picking up any Shenango China which at one time was made here in town. I hope you enjoyed our little part of PA. Bonnie Smith
Loved it!
I bought an entire bag like that of porcelain knobs for $2 at the Restore.
That’s awesome. We have since used or sold all we bought I hope I can find some more ❤️. Porcelain knobs are so good.
I’ve soooo wanted to go to a salvage store! Love the porcelain pulls!
I could fill up a whole trailer of milk glass in 1 day! It's Everywhere in Abundance!!
Here too! I'm in Indiana.
Here too in MI!
Your milk glass bowl holds candles! Came out early 70’s!
Florists used them for centerpieces 😊
NM Goodwill has gotten rid of all sales days and double/tripled prices.
Is that an excavator I see through the kitchen door? Oops...see the note!
Fun finds, how about thrifting at the 127 Yard Sale, which runs from August 5-8 this year, it is an annual event The route spans 6 states (Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama) and is 690 miles long
It's time for buying trip. I'm in Ohio and you would be thrilled with the stuff we can't sell here so it's super cheap, but you sell it like crazy out there.
Same in Wisconsin. Glassware and furniture are very hard to sell. You have to almost give it away, it's sad. Believe it or not, paper, anything made of paper(ephemera) is selling like hotcakes! I work part time in an antique mall in Oshkosh, WI. Jami & Zeb let me know when/if you come to the mid-west...I'll hook you up!
I think I have that exact chair.
Great tips! LOVE this video!
"Some people buy t-shirts. I buy junk!"
ME TOO!!!! You're my kinda peeps! 🥰
I’m glad you did this! I always wonder how to manage Thrifting when I’m flying. Great tips!!!
Jami...so you love Pennsylvania? You were only HOURS FROM ME !!! It is too bad New York did not have Goodwills like that ! New York CITY ..yes.. but upstate NO ☹️! Yes Ohio is fabulous to shop in. I watch a lady from Ohio on You Tube and she gets amazing stuff .
Oh those porcelain knobs... can’t wait to see what you do! So many great things !
I have to tell you Jami....I have been searching for Vintage French Green Canning Jars... oh my...the SHIPPING FROM FRANCE cost more than the jars...! Most jars are between $30-40 and the shipping is in the $50’s...☹️☹️ a BIG boo ! Boy are they gorgeous though!
Woo hoo to the pool getting started !!!
Glad you and your Mom are back save and sound 💛🙏🙏💛
LOL you were 40minutes from me! The bridge is Hot Metal Bridge. When we go to the dr we cross that one. Good ortho dr.
That’s what it’s called. I couldn’t remember the name
You should go to Springfield Ohio Extravaganza! It is twice a year. May & September. It is honestly the best flea market ever. It is the Midwest's Roundtop
When we lived in Maryland , we shopped in Pennsylvania all the time. That is where Martha and I went to an auction and got carried away buying turkey chicks and a mother bantam hen and her chicks. We came home with almost 30 poultry.Dad said we weren’t allowed to go again. 🤣🤣 It was Spring and the tulips were blooming EVERYWHERE ! So unforgettable! I can picture you in the Airport making you brown bundle. Too bad you couldn’t have filmed THAT! He he!
The small cobalt blue pitcher is a Shirley Temple pitcher by Hazel Atlas. The picture of Shirley has worn off. I have 1 just like it and I 💜 LOVE it. My favorite find thrifting while traveling is an OLD cast iron door stop that I found while visiting my sister in Washington State almost 25 years ago. My how time flies‼️🙉
Love your junking videos. I find great stuff junking in Pennsylvania. I live in Kentucky. My son lives in Pennsylvania. I always go thrifting when I’m there. ❤️❤️❤️
When my sister lived in New York, my mom and I were visiting and junked from a street corner vendor lot right downtown. A cool old trunk, smaller than ones we usually find. , but found an amazing round coffee grinder plus many more smalls. . I did what you did , I packed things, with in things and lots of paper. My dad helped me cut up cardboard boxes we found in a dumpster, we duct taped it all over the trunk, but left the end so we could slide it out for SW to see. Then we checked it....and taped it back up and Voila....everything made it home to Texas. That’s been about 20 yrs ago. Then on a quick SW trip to Dallas, for clothes shopping with our son, ( he likes clothes and we didn’t have any outlet stores close) he saved his money..... found the coolest old Pressed chalk mirror, from a tavern. SW let us carry it on and into the over head bin perfectly! I TOTALLY GET YOU!!! It’s so fun to find stuff in other places.
Jami is a real sweetheart. Zeb, too. Ever since I found them through Debi, I appreciate and enjoy watching and listening to them every chance I get. They are my Saturday evening's treat. Thank you, guys! Much love to you and the kids from your fan Sam (me). 💗
We found a Halloween Charlie Brown in a vampire costume that dances and plays music!
2 bucks in a Goodwill in Austin, TX
Love it, going to New Orleans in the Fall with my Mom, planning on hitting up some thrift shops and would love to find architectural salvage to bring home. Thanks for not making me feel so weird!! :)
Great junk!!!! Love the Hazel Atlas Ritz blue little pitcher! I have one but mine is smaller than yours!! I'm glad y'all had a safe trip!!
You are indeed a Thrifting Master!….Jami glad you found so much Good deals!…..Godbless y’all abundantly and May He keep you safe!
Oh…I just broke my glass tray inside my silver butter dish. I love these.
Finally bought a Seltzer bottle from you , and now you come back with more good junk!!! hmmm!!!!🤔👍😊
I love Pennsylvania!! They do have great vintage junk i drove back with 3 old trunks stuffed full of junk .. Such beautiful country
Hot Metal Bridge was the bridge name! I live in the suburbs of Pittsburgh....love all the great junk I find. ❤
I junked in upstate NY and had a blast. We lived there for 11 months then went back to Phx. The people in NY never move they stay in the same house forever. The estate sales were awesome. I also went to Brinfield, Stormville, and Elephant's trunk.
I had so many milk glass pieces I think I gave them all to a Catholic church to sell in Hopewell Pa. when we moved. I also had a few gold and olive green pieces too. You have to go to Lancaster next time and Volant Pa. (Amish country)... Sugar Creek Ohio too.
Wow I was shocked to hear you was in Pittsburgh Pa. I live an hours away in Ohio. Ohio does have awesome thrift stores. There’s a store about 7 mins away called thrift pickers and that place is packed with good finds. Thanks for shearing your tips. Love your channel
I've thrifted in Pittsburg, PA too. Lots of fun and I sent stuff home thru "inner fooice mail"! (I worked in corporate America and was there on business for 2 weeks. I sent plates in with the stuff I used while teaching classes.)
PA is great for junking and thrifting. The further East you go the more expensive things get. Every state or country I go to I always go picking and I always bring an extra suitcase!
My job took me on the back roads in Pennsylvania, there were barn sales and roadside sales and free items! One big disappointment was a clerks desk of chestnut wood for $25 but I couldn’t get it in my little car and they would not hold it, I wish I had just found a uHaul! I found a drop leaf cottage table for free! Great idea on large almost empty suitcase! Blessed and safe days!
If I had to pick one thing I miss in the US it is cheap thrifting. The thrifting in Copenhagen has been fun but I don't feel like I'm getting a bargain.
The Fenton milk glass bowl is actually for candles and flowers. At the time (60’s & 70’s) there were slender tapers that fit the small perimeter holds and larger candles fit in the center, then flowers were arranged around the candles. I have one of two that were on the table for my sister’s wedding in 1972.
Great finds! You would love Mo. Junk! There is so much cool, cool, cool milk glass pieces here. Many unusual pieces. I have the coolest square cake plate stand, in milk glass. There are so many patterns. Architectural pieces as well. I had a freind that tore down houses most of his life. He had building after building of treasures. It was like visiting a time capsule. But to get them out of the building was almost impossible. I think he sold it as one collective price for all. It was a gold mine. But like all gold hard to get to. The buildings where stacked all the way to the top of the rafters one piece on top of another. It was worth seeing thou. There are lots of antique or junk shops around here where you can see all the antiques inside, but they have just been abonden for some reason. It's strange.. Antiques in this area in prices I would say are at an all time low in price.
"Some people buy t-shirts i buy junk when i travel"😂me too!!! Love it!! Good haul
We always go junkin while away!💕 my favorite find was an old chocolate counter top candy case/ cabinet with original green glass ,I still have it 😀
Lived in Cleveland before we retired to SC and loved going antiquing in Pittsburgh. Also a great food town but junking was the best!!
Your video was well timed. I'm planning a trip and just found out I can take 2 checked bags instead of the one I thought I could take. 🛫
Great haul! Can’t believe you packed all that in your suitcase 🤣👏👏👏
Wow Jami, when you thrift, you do thrift, lol never expected all that in the suitcase, lol. Great job. God Bless Glad you and Mom are home safe.
When you get the chance to come to Ohio I will take you to all the great junking places!!!!! So happy to see you and your mom made it home safe. Take care
Im heading to Tijuana Mexico in a couple weeks for weight loss surgery. These are great tips. I hope to get some shopping in when I'm there
Take a measuring tape to make sure the size will be approved for the airplane? Congratulations on the pool!!!
Beautiful finds awesome packing Jami ❤️❤️
I can't wait to go on vacation now!!!!
Wow you packed a lot in that big case 👍🏻👍🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Jamie what was that in your door window floating by at 15:31 in the video? A ghost? LOL!
Talk about a tax deductible business trip!!😆😆😆👍🏽
My treadle sewing machine that my dad got for me for $5 in 8th grade. It has all the attachments and still works !
Our thrift stores (in Meridian Idaho) have gone stupid with their pricing.
I do the exact same thing, no T-shirts or souveniers, just junk! Great finds!
Who sings your back ground music? Great choice.
You did well. It's tricky to pack for your return grip
So valuable!! Totally took notes 🙋♀️🌺🌴
Greyhound bus would have taken your trunk.
When I was in Paris, I did the nested suitcase hack. I also brought some Lock n Lock nesting containers. I put my finds in them wrapped and cushioned in my dirty clothes. Everything arrived alive and unbroken. The advantage of those containers was that if something had happened, the pieces/contents would have been contained and not spilling all over my other belongings.
Always good to keep stuff wrapped and separated. I have also used dirty close as padding. This time I had bubble wrap. But it’s good to use whatever you have access too ❤️
come to my house and go thrifting. All would be free to you.
I love finding old linen or silverware, especially serving pieces.
😮💝 wow!! You found some great stuff!
Yes, you will have to drive to PA with your trailer.
I always go thrifting when I am on vacation
🇨🇦. Hey! Don’t forget to put lids on upside down if possible before taping to the bottom part of sets. There is WAY more protection from chipping and cracking. Great hauls in Pennsylvania AND Utah this week. Well done Ray Family! ❤️❤️❤️ 🇨🇦
Yes also so great. I put them upside down and tape them ❤️❤️❤️
I've picked up embroidery tablecloths and those antique wooden long spools in Oregon every time I go. I love it. I'm going to take another suitcase next time I go. Thanks for the tips.
Awe.... I'm from PA. I lived 30 mi. North of Pittsburgh. I'm from the Beaver Country area. It looks like you had a good time. So glad you came to visit.
It’s a beautiful state!
If you go back to Pittsburgh you MUST visit the Grand Concourse. It was a train station that was turned into a restaurant. The photos on the website don’t do it justice. It is exquisite architecture and hand laid tile floors, etc. Also, Pennsy has a 100 mile yard sale every year. Did it in 2018. Met amazing people and had a blast. Came home with a car load!
I keep hearing of this 100 mile yard sale!
Jami is a thrifting genius, great job 🤗💕
Jami I agree with you, Pennsylvania is beautiful, rolling green hills and lovely farms and beautiful old homes! Driving through the countryside from Michigan all the way to New Jersey was just beautiful! Lots of hiking trails too!
That drive sounds wonderful
Wow you found some great things!
JAMI I live 2 1/2 hours from Pittsburgh!! You need to come to Ohio! I'll take you to all my honey pots!!! Or the Yearly "worlds longest garage sale" that goes thru the whole state of Ohio!
Yes 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Don’t come to Texas if you want good deals on vintage junk! I have the hardest time finding inventory. I’m hoping to take a trip to Central IL soon and I know the prices are pretty good there. Even CA is better than TX for prices! Fun video - loved it! ♥️
We found that. But we did get enough junk in round top to make it worth our trip. We just had to search a ton.
I love looking in thrift stores when I travel
Good job I live in South Jersey 2 1/2 hours from Philadelphia Pennsylvania
Can you give us the address of those jump in places
Savers has also gotten redunculous!
Oh my word Jami!!!😆😆😆 You are too much!😆. Junkers unite!! 😆😆💗
💪💪
Thanks for sharing. Such fun!!
In Virginia I found an old clear vase full of vintage marbles for $6. Sold in my booth for $25.
Oh I love that!
It was The Hot Iron Bridge.
My goodness that sounds like fun! I have brought thrifted Johnson Bros., soft yellow salad bowls all the way from the other side of Canada. Quebec has some great antique and thrift shops. I got four of them and sat both plane rides home with them in my carry on, between my ankles. That was 15 years ago, I use them all the time. I am not one for souvenirs either...special momentos for me.
A tea cup yellow roses. 36 years ago.
Never junked on vacay, but I will this year. We are going to DC in July.
I hope you find great stuff!
You scored big time Jami!
Oh, my husband will not love your suggestion to junk while out of town!
Lol tell him sorry for me 😂😂🙌🏻
Loved your excitement!
