I hate to vacuum but the floors r questionable. N the junkie look. As a business owner I know how hard it is to keep it presentable but it’s a must. The look of the store will determine the customer quality u draw.
Always put at least one good item in a grab bag. In my jewellery grab bags I always put a small or non expensive sterling silver ring or ear rings that haven't sold. People love it because they never lose.
It’s crazy what customers (idiots) do with products. This also happens in charity shops too. I have also spotted clothing displays with sample items to stop the above opening packages. There is always one. The worst ones are the ones that need to get on the bus first. This often happens especially if there is a wheelchair and they want to get on first. There are too many idiots out there.
Yippee, loving these videos, gurl! Watching now... People can just be so sloppy. I would be thrilled to be able to shop there! People be sayin "Sweet be stalking Lindey's store!"🤣😂
It’s like if it’s in a bin, it isn’t worth much, so it implies permission to be careless. Don’t take it personally, Lindey. It’s the business. I hope customers don’t rip open the junk bags.
that is horrible though and wastes their income and increases theft. Similar to someone stealing the toliet paper or throwing rolls around in the bathroom.
Lindey, I dont know if you've already tried this, but maybe put a roll of packaging tape in your cart while you're cleaning out the bins so that you can repair item boxes as you go??
Customers will perceive the items the way they see it being treated by the retailer. If boxed or multi pieced items started on a shelf or hung up they will be treated with more respect than if it is it just heaped together with everything. Yes it is would take more organization but that would convert to more sales, less damage and conceivably some higher price points.
i think i would love to do this kind of job. i have bad bad ocd gonna try some mystery bags at my yardsale this weekend instead of doing the free pile at the end of the yardsale why not..
How does your system work? what if someone picks an item up from a $3 bin and tells the cashier that they got it from the $1 bin? My local bin store has recently installed cameras at the end of each row. I recommend doing that, if you catch someone destroying stuff or opening boxes where they should not be, ban them.
of course the customers destroy stuff, you're selling stuff that's at the end of its' retail life, presented in a big messy bin like the Goodwill does with the otherwise unsellable stuff just before it goes to a landfill (or overseas!). It's maddening but that's your demographic, Lindey and it's just the way many customers let loose in a bargain store are going to behave. Probably happens at Macy's too, just not as often. Another downside to brick and mortar, sorry you have to deal with it!
We call them junk bags so that people buying them have realistic expectations. We have learned that people would rather be pleasantly surprised rather than expecting something better and being disappointed
Instead of bins where it doesn't look like it's valuable, how about shelves (like thrift store) and put the multiple items in the bins so everything looks nice & neat (like the HBA items in the background)? Might cut down on the handling of things that are not of interest just to dig to find something of interest to that customer? Just a thought.

Our local bin store has a new rule. Anyone caught opening boxes is required to purchase that box.
I would call the "Junk Bags" "Mystery Bags". It's more alluring and doesn't imply that the items in them are junk. 😊
The amount of damage is crazy. People are savages.
100% having a bin store has shown me how destructive people can be 😭

I was thinking the exact same thing.

I love your positive energy. Thank you.

15:17 i think i found rhe missing hand massage stick from ealier empty box lok
You're a special human with an amazing work ethic. The first item you held up may be used with a Cpap machine.
Love ya girly! You guys are great!!
I think craft themed junk bags are a great idea!! It's too bad that people are so thoughtless and rude.
The fabric or craft junk bags sound like a great idea . You could call them fabric junk bag or craft junk bags. ;) useful idea.

Great deals!!
Holiday junk bags, crafters junk bags. Any category specific junk bag should do well.
Have you considered putting up signs stating "Please do not open boxes/packaging? If you have any questions/need help please ask."
i think i would love to do this kind of job. i have bad bad ocd gonna try some mystery bags at my yardsale this weekend instead of doing the free pile at the end of the yardsale why not..

Very good question
Take A Picture Of The Back Of The Clock And Tape It To The Box Next To The Clock
You should hire a cleaning company to clean the store nightly.
I'm sure she doesn't want to spend the extra money on something she and her husband can do even if it's not a pleasant job.
Uhm...she is the cleaning company!
Blessings 😊😊

So doing it this way I think instead of a bin store I think is a better option
hope it works out, seems kind of labor intensive. interesting.
Hi sis ppl.junk is ppl treasure 😊
Lindey, I would love to open my own bin store. Any information you could pass on?? Thanks in advance
Thats so.sad 😢 ppl have me respect
put a sign display do not touch
Important question: are the lemon squeezers called Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezies? 😆
😂😂
At such low prices the volume of sales needed is high.
Why not call it Blowout Bags instead of junk
I was thinking the same.
