The “lightweight wood “ was Florentine from Italy 1960s

I can't believe how loud it is there. I'd have a nervous breakdown with all that chaos. Kudos to you.

Yes, I agree that the experience can be overwhelming and it's hard when you are trying to do things "properly" as requested and others seem to be just blatantly flaunting the new rules or too clueless to follow them. I don't do well when it's loud and crowded either, even before the arrows and masks began. And those shelves were so over-packed that it looked chaotic. I commend you for making it through without bolting and running screaming from the store, lol.

Nothing bothers me more than inconsideration while shopping publicly!... except maybe idiotic drivers that apparently can't read!

Great job today on the “voice-over.” I loved it! It was really enjoyable to not hear the music, and only hear your voice explaining the items you picked up. 👍

I know it takes more time, but I love your voice-over work!

I totally understand, I feel better when someone is with me too!

You should come to Austria (Europe). Thrift stores are full of 40', 50', 60's and 70's stuff and nobody wants it. It's not in fashion here. You would flip out by all the stuff in the stores.

I like your voice overs! The overcompinsating truck comment cracked me up! Thanks for taking my mind off of things everyday♥️

Over stimulated is how I feel every time I thrift shop!

When I shop I have the ability to zone everything and everyone out. I’m on a mission. I was hoping you’d find the mama duck and I loved the swan!❤️

have to say i LOVE the voice overs :D i find them much better than the music over lay :D really enjoyed the video

Yes I like the voice overs...the noise and banging of items....🤯 Chocolate pot for $3, nice find!!!

I'm like you when I go out, it never bothered me before, people, but with this pandemic people act like nothing happened. I live in cottage country so we are over run with cottagers from Toronto and they are rude, go down the wrong aisles and have the nerve, in my home town, to give me the stink eye! Huh! I get so shaken up I can't wait to get out and go home! Anyway, keep going Jocelyn and I'll stop rambling! Lol I just really feel for you!

The purple glass piece is an amphora jug. Probably made for display or vase. It should have a stand if it was meant to hold any liquid.

I went to my local goodwill for the first time in months the other day, and it was definitely overwhelming! I wish that bee/flower bag was in my local store. I totally would have snatched that up for one of my friends.

If you buy Russel Wright for daily use look for his Iroquoi line. American Modern (the chartreuse dish) is prone to crazing and chipping. The Iroquois line has great side pieces!

I love old boxes, big and little. I would buy some of what you saw. I need to get out and shop! That chocolate pot you found is gorgeous.

Nobody is paying attention to the arrows where I live. In fact I did not notice the arrows till I was ready to leave. They are in all the stores even Wal-Mart.

The thing you thought was a lamp is a candle stick. The piece of metal that moved around is used for popping out the left over candle. You push it up from underneath and it dislodges any left over wax.

I totally flipped over that cobalt bowl! 😳👀 I love that you share your real stuff like things that make you anxious, situations that make you uncomfortable, things we all deal with but think we are alone! Thank you!!

Love the buy of the day for me....the chocolate pot!!! Love it!

Great. I love the name. Banna Box Antiques.

I try to stay away from shopping my eyes and brain just want to buy a lot of stuff I no not need. But they are good finds.

What a great name for your new shop, I love it!

I just ordered my shirt. I'm so excited. I love the name, and the design and the awesome colors. Thanks for taking us shopping with you. Now we can take you shopping with us, in our new shirts.

This is the goodwill I go to. Yeah it's pretty crazy in there most days and the organization could use work. It was really nice seeing though what you picked out and didn't get! I picked up some of the same pieces and put them back down lol.

Loved the little child antique plates!! Great find and I will be waiting to see them come up on eBay. I am a new follower of yours and thoroughly enjoy your daily videos. Thanks!!

The crab crock at 14:02 looks interesting! There was also a planter earlier in the white section with caterpillars and other insects on it.

3:13 that is beautiful you could use that for your powder. It looks like it would be made in French. I am trying to find one that looks antique or vintage.

The purple bottle is what is known as a potion bottle. They usually come with a rack thingee to hold them upright. I love the way things are displayed by color. Neat idea.

When I'm in a crowded, noisey environment I get claustrophobic. My anxiety and stress levels go through the roof. Even at family events I tend to retreat to a corner and stay quiet.

Oh, my! I don’t know how you stayed in there so long! Just the little of what you let us listen to almost put me in a big ole panic attack!

That pie plate is collectable..I use to love to look for these but hard to find anymore...You didn't even look at it but should have.

That was so nice the incomplete japanese wood house even without the drawers. Nice eye Jocelyn ❤ The voice over is very nice, i like it.

Ordered my "BANANA BOX" 🍌 📦 shirt. Super excited for you guys, maybe I will be able to visit sometime too! Thanks Jocelyn for giving me 100's of hours of entertainment.

Thanks so much for your ❤️ & sacrifice. I can feel the anxiety. Yikes. Loved the voice over. That noise, people talking, & the chaotic shelves. Whoa. Too much for me. I appreciate your hanging in. Wow we zowie!! It definitely can be OVERWHELMING!!!!

what is that?

At my Goodwill the stickers are usually on the bottom usually covering any identification. So I peel part of the sticker to see where it was made. Certainly not to exchange it for a lower priced .

This Goodwill is so very different than mine. We don't have arrows on the floor so it's two way traffic everywhere. This store is much neater and more organized than where I shop. I don't shop to resell but I have a lot of fun. I always check out the clothing too.

I loved the Russel Wright dish so much I had to look it up. I'd never heard of it before. I found that platter for sale for $55USD on another website! Wow. Good score.

Hi! Love you and your family! I keep learning so much from you! I found a Roseville Ramsbottom piece that I would have passed up normally, but saw it because of your videos! :)

Is it not for a candle and the metal thing underneath pushes the last dregs of the candle out???

Congratulations to you on making it through the store. I wouldnt have been able to do that. You got some good stuff. Have a good day !

Oh your Goodwill beats my local Goodwills six ways to Sunday. Your voiceover is totally on point. I almost like it better than the running commentary. I want several of the things you picked up.

I love watching you shop. I have learned a lot and you have helped me remember things from growing up. I thank you. You also make me laugh as as it is good to know that someone else has anxiety issues over going the wrong way against the arrows, people stopping in the middle of the isles and generally not paying attention to the other people in the world. You are always thinking of others and how your actions are affecting those around you. You are very considerate....I really admire that about you. You also have this way of saying exactly what my inside voice of humor is saying....”that truck is definitely over compensating for something”.😉😉 Keep doing what you are doing Jocelyn, we love it! Ciao!

Hello, from KENTUCKY!!! Love to watch you shop. Sometimes I like to pick something on the shelf before you do!!! Have a great day!!!

I am sorry you had to stress like that. I am a senior and I go through the same thing with people going the wrong direction in the isles, it is annoying to have to do that but if it is slowing down this virus I will do what is needed. and I do wear a mask when I go out.

I went out shopping at 3 good wills, prices a little high to make up for them being closed. I went looking for different things this time. Give it a little more time, when they will have full shelfs.

If I was going to a goodwill right now I would be in a electric wheelchair so I wouldn't be able to deal with the wrong way people. These wheelchairs are big makes it hard to get around in tight places. So many places I want to go aren't set up for wheelchairs. I like your voice over a lot better than the noise. I can hear what you are saying.

Your nail polish is very unique. I am swan collector too!!!

Designer bags at thrift stores are not always knock off‘s. I just got tired of some coach bags one time and donated three of them. Don’t know if they ever made it to the floor but they were real and in great condition.

Going shopping with you is like going for a country drive in the evening with my father. And stopping the truck to pick up frogs and move them out of the way; ocassionally bringing one home. You are a grate teacher.💌

Frogs?? Really? ....😳

Darn it. I’m just finally getting around to catching up on my KZread channels and missed this shirt campaign. Home you make it available again.

Our Goodwill was quiet, with very few people, but after 15 minutes I was so stressed I felt like I was going to have a panic attack, and had to leave. It's just the anxiety of being too close to people now, and the loudness of yours would have made me frantic. Thank you Joce for all of your efforts, I couldn't have stood it for 5 seconds. You found so many nice things too, far better than our low inventoried store. So for my own peace of mind I think I will just enjoy your shopping and not put myself through such stress until things improve. In a few minutes my hubby is taking me for a drive up into the mountains. Hopefully I will get to see something like last time, which was a mother deer and her newborn fawn, just casually standing on the side of the road. We didn't see but two cars all day and it was wonderful. The spring flowers are in bloom, the birds are singing in the tree's, and life is good. I hope you have a God blessed day!

I understand your frustration with the noise and the people. I would have been out of there a long time ago. But it isn't my living,so I also understand why you stuck it out.

I love the cream and green pitcher with flowers❤️❤️

Just found your channel, loved it! I feel the same way about the ARROWS!!! come on people please follow the arrows!

Shopping has become so much more stressful!

That green frosted candlewick design lidded candy compote was nice at 10:45.

New subbie I don’t know how I stumbled upon your channel but I’m glad I love thrifting and trying to find good things I love the floral things you find and the pink glasswares

I totally understand, when the music is so loud, I get nervous and get out quick.

Hey @16:20 you might want to add Italian Florentine wood tray to your repertoire. They are light, but they're so useful for kitchen to bedroom (tea, soup, sandwich) the perfect tray 😍 not sure if that one was Florentine. But they all are light which makes them so useful. Some of them have beautiful designs. You can Google. 💙💚🇮🇹

Twice I heard the store announcement about staying home if you're not feeling well. But, I didn't hear anything said about following the arrows. The store staff should be asking shoppers to follow the arrows or leave if they're not willing to. It's their responsibility to keep their shoppers safe.

I agree Marie!

I saw you pick up the marigold carnival glass tumbler and I am saying, Get it Get it like you can hear me. I love this glass.

I know what you mean, shopping anywhere is so stressful right now. Some thrift stores have everything clean and organized, but some are like this one and it's complete kaos!!! Take good care of yourself out there.

Too funny Jocelyn! The first thing you reach for, the restaurant ware, I just purchased a set of coffee cups and saucers made by steelite England for 2 bucks. They are the same company that makes our Tim Hortons cups. So whatever I sell, I'm sure I'll make something? More than I paid anyway.

Saw this cartoon saying i knew i must have road rage when my little kid yelled pick a lane from the grocery cart at the store. Can get frustrating!!

Greetings! The pretty aqua thing could be a candlestick with a push up mechanism. I have a lot of older brass candlesticks with that.

I thought it would make a pretty candle stick. I haven't seen what you are describing before, it makes sense. Have an awesome day!

I love it when I can hear the background noise!!! It makes me feel like I’m shopping with you :). All that excitement goes away with a voiceover. But I do understand that with the music sometimes you must do the voiceover.

I liked that a couple of spots your voice-over exactly matched your hand motions from the original comments. Love the shop name! Good to see you pick up a couple of non-glass/pottery items. Even the “unknown” lamp? part. 😀

Your voice over is so much easier to listen to --- thank you.

Hi Jocelyn. Loved the green pot and the floral jug. Marie

I don’t know if you’ve tried this, but what I do when I have to research something (mostly my porcelain pieces), I use the reverse google image search. I downloaded the google app and use the lens feature. It analyzes the subject and will produce previous results similar or the same. Sometimes it’ll give me results that are totally different than what it is, but it’s helped me discover a lot more about my pieces rather than me just googling random words. Google knows more if it can see what you’re searching. I’ve been able to go straight to eBay listings just by taking a picture.

I agree with most others - voice overs are MUCH better than noise and racket. I went to our Goodwill yesterday and they had nothing but a bunch of junk. I am so jealous! Yours is great!

Totally understand the uncomfortable shopping experience . Just deep breaths and enjoy my dear.

That set of 3 yellow cookware was nice looks high-end

Wish I could follow you at every store, I’d learn sooooo much! Nice video, i need to do more like you, don’t know or not sure..put it back 🤪

I had the same anxiety at my Goodwill. Crowded, noisy and rude people. But I got a nice small haul. I was picky too.

The purple glass was a heart shaped glass flask. It a popular pirate accessory at renfares! The finger holds usually have a leather strap that allows you to tie it to your grab! Love your videos!!

Went to our Goodwill a few days ago and it was wall to wall clothes. The area of “stuff” besides clothes is now gone and all of those items are on shelves above the clothing racks. It was sad because they hang all clothes according to color. Not size or even style so the whole trip was a bust. Walked myself to death for very little return. Other thrift stores were bare. Not a great day out but hoping for a restock soon. It was fun going along with YOU though! 🥰

Every time I’m in Goodwill the music is always too loud. Your doing great on the voiceovers though. Great video.

Couldn't wait to get to my local Goodwill today. Someone must watch your channel. I couldn't believe the jump in prices. If something had dust on it, and was even thought to be old, the price was insane. No chance for resell here. So sad.

Love the name of your shop!!! Great shirt design! I noticed you wearing it in another video and was wondering about it. I am not on facebook so I like when you give updates on youtube. I have anxiety issues when people don't follow guidelines too!! Thanks for posting!

Love the name of your store!! 😎💙 I hope it's a huge success for y'all. Just ordered my shirt. Maybe after opening there could be coffee cups or travel mugs with your logo too? Just a thought.

Thank you for shopping for us. Sorry about the inconsiderate people. That causes me anxiety too. I love the name of your shop and I just ordered a shirt. You rock!

Love your videos, keep them coming. Stay safe x

I enjoy your videos. I am so glad I’m not the only one that gets anxious about the arrows. It makes me anxious too. No consideration for others. Hope the rest of your day went well.

I actually loved the voice over. Sometimes background sounds can be distracting and make it hard to hear you. Nice haul

I was curious how you package to resell? I looked, didn't see a video on that. I would imagine as many items are fragile that it takes a lot of wrapping in bubble wrap etc.

Arkansas never closed their thrift stores and Goodwill had to advertise that they were open an reminded us we need to be shopping there to continue to help people find jobs.

I understand your frustration with people going the wrong way down the aisles. Same issue here. Shopping with you is fun. I spotted 2 things I wanted that weren't vintage. A Petunia pickle bottom diaper bag on a shelf and a dog food dish made in a puzzle to slow down dogs when they eat. Both spendy items but not what you sell.

You passed a dish I think it was corning ware with the blue cornflower pattern. I picked up a few pieces of that style for around $25 and sold them for $80. I really love the idea of what you do but I find it very tiring . If I were younger I would absolutely do this. Happy hunting to you!

I hope that my goodwill never starts sorting by color! Those shelves were driving me crazy. A pack of paper next to a tea pot? And the mess. Between the disheveled shelves, the ignorant people and the noise ... I would have lasted about 5 minutes. You did great and no worries about missing stuff.
