    Hi Renee. $5 bucks for this unit was the right move. You didn't lose much on the unit. You did get your money back on the ring 💍. But some of the clothes can be sold and the rest to donate. God Bless on this amazing and crazy unit. Have an amazing weekend Renee. HUGS 🤗 my friend. Maria. 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👍👍💜💗💖💕💙

    Renee, great locker for $5. The jewelry definitely paid for the unit & then some. You were under the treasure hunting gods today. Most of your boxes actually contain their items intact. The jewelry, the watch, etc. So awesome finds for $5 plus it was a clean, odorless unit to boot. Thanks for sharing & continue success. Have a great weekend, Renee!

Nice bit of Swab..Swoz…Swavor…Souz - shiny crystal baubles! Very nice. More evidence of Columbia's finest - not to dwell on that. A smartwatch you can use in the gym - what's not to love about it all? Well done Renee!

    I would expect as you become a more experienced buyer, you will buy more expensive units. I know you're limited by not having a big truck, but there is money to be made if pay up. Even if a unit is bad, you can at least get enough KZread views to somewhat offset the cost. I don't say bigger, just better. A 5 x 5 with really good items would suit you well. Somebody might bid against you, but if you see good items you'd probably be safe going up to $100 or $150.

    It was a low weight ring, but I’ll take $80 any day! I also now have a multi-tool flashlight for both future storage units & cleanouts. Flashlight & a pocket knife wrapped in one! Speaking of cleanouts, checked on a possible job today but nothing too promising. A newer home with mostly everything removed from it, just one room & a kitchen that really needs items removed. Plus lots of furniture 😬 Tony has some other leads though on other jobs, so we shall about them! We are in for another round of snow here, so looks like another wash-out for a weekend flea market day. Spring will come around eventually! Hope that you have a great weekend!

    Nice unit - learn new things with each locker and make money at the same time! Not sure if you've done it deliberately, but I think you've made a good move to have these storage unit videos more frequently. Seems like your # of subscribers has grown more quickly since you've been doing more of these. Just my impression. 'Course you know the history ones are my favorite - but they don't pay the bills. And the way you "reveal" these units is captivating - building anticipation. Glad you received good money for the ring - hope the tent, watch & UV light bring profit as well (I guess it's all profit after the ring). Hope the snow has melted up your way and that you have a terrific weekend! (No elevator? That's just mean 🤨).

    People enjoy watching storage unit reveals, so if I’m able to purchase one at a decent price, why not! There were many units available at this in-person auction, but prices went fairly high with I think the highest selling locker going for a little over $2,500. That’s a pretty big gamble, but for that winning bidder they thought it was worth it. Or perhaps they already have a buyer for the washer, dryer, & refrigerator that was right up front in the unit. Another unit was filled with salon equipment & that sold for $650. Perfect for someone that is planning on opening or selling to a salon, but a pass for me. I actually have my eyes on another unit that is coming up in the next few weeks, so we shall see how that goes! Snow is melting a big here but now tonight they are calling for another storm with more snow. We’ll see what the weather brings!

    Little units won't make you a fortune... But they do have some rewards. A $50 dollar unit a few weeks showing about a dozen wooden wine crates (Maybe selling around $10 each) would double my money, BUT I found two $50 gift cards, a $100 dollar bill and about $20 in singles. And just like this unit... a little 5x5 cleaned out with 1 easy trip.

    Exactly! While it's not making millions, it is profitable in smaller ways and much easier to clean out than a 10x20 loaded with plywood furniture, a broken refrigerator, a stack of tires, and a big screen TV. You might find a couple of pennies in the couch cushions in those units, but otherwise, a 5x5 is your better gamble!
