I wanted to give you guys a break down on how I source in the thrift store. How I decide where to go, what time to go and what sections to hit once I'm inside.
Do you guys have systems for how you source?
thanks for watching!

I watch a lot of these type of videos, and I have to say that you are my favorite reseller you tuber. So humble and down-to-earth and relatable. Thank you so much for putting out quality videos every single time. I learned so much from you and never feel intimidated. The way you explain everything and show us makes everything less confusing and doable. So thank you from the bottom of my heart.

When i was in high school, i'd stay up all night watching creepy videos and stuff. I can tell i'm getting older because it's now thrifting videos
DRYSOL!!!! I swear you’ll be SO grateful that you gave it a try. It’s so good. It helps with odour and perspiration. You put it on at night and wash off in the morning. You don’t need to put on anything after that. It’s crazy how well it works!! I put it on 2 nights in a row then maybe once a week for 3 weeks then repeat. I can wear a sweater and sit in a sauna and I will NOT have sweaty pits. If you struggle I promise, promises, promise you’ll love this stuff. Only crappy thing is it makes my underarms itchy the nights I put it on. I have super sensitive skin so.... but I found if I shower, air dry and wait a couple hours before I put on then it’s not so bad. Cheers. Oh and you’re welcome ;)

I love your shows. Regarding deodorant , the stuff that works best for me is bark from either a maple or birch tree. The main problem is the big sizes of bark that make my pits look weird. Also , keeping the bark stuck to my pits is a problem: superglue works best , but hey, it's superglue. It is much better than a staplegun or nail gun !!! Keep up the great work .
Goodwill bins are hit and miss here as well we will find out again tomorrow. We will see what we can find on probably the last sourcing day of the year 2019 for us.....We will catch up on the replay. Keep on picking Rob & Lisa.
Quilts and Hand made quilted blankets are Great and well as certain Sheets. The larger the better. Look for
Yes!! I just ordered my Lume bar soap, deodorant after watching a captivating ad on Facebook as well. I've been using it for about 2 weeks and it is amazing!! I have a 15 year old son who uses it as well and I can tell you is the best products we have ever used for getting rid of body odor.

I own a pair of the kobe 9 highs and your pair looks very legit, also there’s a very small market for high quality nike basketball shoes (not including retros or very limited color ways) Great video i definitely learned a lot!
Thanks for the thrift shopping tips,, will use them. Just starting out at reselling and I sometimes get totally confused.
Man, I LOVE the glass case. Recently got an awesome lens on a roached out Nikon film camera for $10. Ipod nano final generation for $25. It's endless!
I was recommended back when I was 19 years old to shave my pits to help with oder and sweat. The deodorant is on the skin and not the hair. I'm 47 and to this day I'm clean and dry and oder free. Love your content and good advice 👌
Thanks a lot for explaining how to look up sneaker information on Google. That was extremely helpful. I’m glad I watched this video again. I missed that tidbit the first time I watched this video.
Hey Josh, I was in in that Goodwill today and scored pretty big. Found a tablet case at the retail store priced at $3.97. Opened it up to find a a Verizon 4G Elipsis 8 practically new. The lady at checkout was amazed it was on the floor and even acted a little angry that I was getting a deal. Also found a frozen video camera new in package for .97. Then had a little success at the bins.
Thanks!! Just hit up the glass case and a triple score👍
Thanks for the great info. As usual another great video Keep up the great work
I am a 1st time viewer. You have great manners👌 I will suscribe. Congratulations on those shoes!
Wow! Awesome shoe find. I love my combo Goodwill Store/Bins location. I usually spend a day there it's so big. It used to be a Target.
Try Certain Dry Roll on from Walmart. Normally on top shelf as specialty. It is uh-mazing it works for odor and perspiration.
I Appreciate the Honesty man not everybody talk about the bad.
That adjustable weight bench you passed up looked like the bow flex adjustable. If so they go for like 300 bucks new
The retail price on that tea is 12-15, it’s good stuff! That’s the brand served in Barnes & Noble Cafe.
That is the nicest, most organized GW, I've ever seen!!
Just sold a glass case find Christmas morning! A pair of goat hair ski boots I paid 39.99 for sold for 225!! Whoo hoo! Good luck!

Found Lume about 3 months ago. Super awesome product.
I must commend you on putting out quality content. Looking forward to learning more this year. With odor, you would benefit in learn about your bodies pH. I would experiment once you know if you are more alkaline or acidic. You enjoy dark green leafy vegetables? Eat green...make green!
Lume is awesome. It really works.
Great video as always! Nice find with the Kobe 9’s! Hope you had a great Christmas!
Great score on the shoes .... I'll be waiting to see what you got for those!
I found same shoes in white at Salvation Army. Sold for $100 in profit on Poshmark
As much as I like the game, the process of finding flips and making money, i'm real damn excited about Lume because of you hahaha. My wife always gives me crap about putting deodorant right before bed and again right when I wake up and the idea that I might not have to do that is kinda mind blowing. I've been doing that and most of what you described since I was twelve, and i'm thirty. So i'm real excited to try this stick.

Don't you love to go on Sundays? LOL Great to see another SC person doing retail resale. Sending you lots of luck! Don't know what part of the state you're in, but hope I see you at a store one day! :)
I hope you get a good return on those shoes 😊😊 WOW, what a fine!

I have a few stores I can hit on rotation couple times a week. I like how you go thru the whole store except the clothes, then another quick walkthru. Good method to hit multiple stores in one day, clothes seem to stay the same more than the other goods, I only run thru clothes on the day sale changes so I can catch the new stuff by color of tag.... not even looking for the discount, looking for the new color tagged clothes of the week
Hey Josh you continue to give us great material. I like this video, super tips. Thanks.
You have amazing goodwills. I have 3 in my area and everything on their shelves looks like it was taken out of the trash. I’m gonna have to travel to some higher income areas and hit their thrift stores.

Nice walkthrough. I also typically pass the glass case without even looking but have to admit that once in a blue moon theres something worth grabbing. 🤷🏻🤦
Your right. It’s a hit or miss
Great story thanks! Will look into Lume.
Those are nice Kobes bro good find. I would value them around 120-150. The $300 sale looked to be new in box. Never liked that high top model but they put some great color ways on it.
Those shoes are beautiful. I love our bins, problem is they are over 3 miles away. However, my daughter lives very close to it so it's all good there. Love your videos.
You should definitely try Certain Dri. Use it at night before bed.
I've given up on games from the GW. Ours went from 99 cents to $4.99 now and unless it's a really good game I won't bother unless it's 40-50% off day. In fact, I don't even bother to go now unless it's a discount day because they've gone crazy with their prices lately. And yes I do know that they are not there to serve resellers. Lol. But I'm not paying $5 or even 2.50 for a game that I can only get $10 or less for.
Great video! I have to start looking in the glass case :)
Awesome video! I subbed! Have a terrific day!
Great stuff. The local GW stores need to take a page from the northern stores, I can see how much tidier and organized they are compared to the ones here.
P-foot, P-butt! Lol

I don't know if you will see this, but just a tip: don't sell used or possibly used car seats, it's actually illegal. You're not even supposed to use them for more than 1 child (crazy I know) They also have expiration dates printed on them now. Just FYI. I don't have kids, but have lots of nieces and nephews.
Nice shoes! What did you end up selling them for? I’m kinda going back and watching all your videos. I’m hooked on you and Hailie.💕
Nice job Hairy.
I have the same luck with the glass case at Goodwill here I have bought 3-4 items in 6 years but the ones I did buy made me a profit of $17- $38 each, selling at $32- $50.

@phillip perkins I was speaking on being able to possibly get a better deal on merchandise by buying more, like a truck load. I was offering because most people can;t buy or don't want to, or even need a whole truck load. I am sorry you took offense to this offer because it was my way of wanting to help get the best possible deal on merchandise for us both. If he were interested in buying pallets and he wasn't at that time for this was 8 months ago. I believe in building business relationships, and have let him know if he ever needs anything, even a box to let me know I am close by.

Hello. Great vids. Quick fact I saw from this video is that you picked up an Erin bear beanie baby new in the package and there were two of them. If those were the original ones with the flaws then they are worth up two $2k. It must be the one with the flaws from the factory. Do a search to find out. Also don’t forget to educate yourself on WOMANS shoes and handbag. The bins also require hours there to find good stuff.

Beanie babies are not worth anything. I've had the one with errors (it had the wrong date printed and it was missing the chest patch). It was the only one like it online. It sat and sat and sat and sat. Beanie babies are used to launder money on Ebay. They are not worth anything.
Will differently make sure I look at the glass case. Normally pass by it.
