My Husband was walking through the room as your prelude to your videos was playing and he said “wow what a cute young couple” I said they are definitely young at heart. He looked at me kind of puzzled and then said I didn’t mean young as in their 20’s but they are definitely a lot younger than we are. I asked him how old he thought you guys were and he said maybe 40.And I told him we are younger than they are, I am 56 and he is 50,And he said , NO WAY!!!They look like Ken and Barbie! I agree. Your energy ,positivity and joy are inspiring.

WOW! I wish I lived in USA. Here in Sweden the prices in thrift stores is really high! It’s very popular to shop secondhand today. I remember 1979. Hardly anybody went to thrift stores, and the items was so cheap, so I bought a lot. But now, after all, the money goes to good causes. Thank you for letting us almost shopping😊

I think Goodwill are known for only giving a tiny fraction to charity - pretty cheeky considering people donate for free but then again it’s a business so…fair enough!

Fabulous finds, Karen! If this was a grand opening at my GW, here's how it'd go down: Regional mgr to workers "I want every Magnalite, Monet, & Murano piece front and center on the shelves! Full bins of Cutco utensils! I don't want to see anything with damage!!" Me shopping the shelves 2 days later and every day after: "Wonder if anyone would want an angel with half a wing, a bag of plastic sporks from Taco Bell or a box of broken ceramic figurines?" 🤓

Where does all this stuff come from? It never ceases to amaze me how much stuff Americans purchase and then discard. But after the resellers get finished, the neighborhood folks will be asking why are the shelves in this store so empty? lol

@@tinaindina7032 For example...without mentioning names, I observed a reseller scoop up approximately 15 pairs of new shoes of the same brand and size which comprised all that was available at a local thrift store. I also observed another reseller snatch up about 20 brand new bras at a church rummage sale. Neither of these resellers left even one for the possibility that a customer who might be in need of a good bargain would have the opportunity to purchase the item.

If you really want to cringe Andrea, go shopping at a GW when they "clear the shelves". They take rolling bins and remove and smash all the breakables and take to the landfills. Idk why people have it so backwards. I think you have to be a reseller to understand. I've been doing it for 10 years. If you want more eye-opening experiences, go dumpster diving at an Old Navy. You'll find bags and bags of NEW clothing with tags and every piece is slashed with a razor to prevent others from using it. Nothing surprises me anymore.

This store is unbelievable...You are soooo lucky to have access to good inventory...

What a fun day! Loved your haul ! Bet the manager of Goodwill never heard of someone finding their soulmate at the Goodwill!!! What a find!!! You guys are the best!

I have that same Wagner roaster sitting on my kitchen table. I found it a few weeks ago at my favorite thrift store. I think I saw it on Kayla's channel too. I was standing looking at other kitchen items when the thrift store employee put it down next to me and it was all I could do to contain myself! I was chanting in my head "I know what this is, I know what this is!"😂 Now I have to decide if I'm going to keep it or if it will be my 1st flip.

Enjoy your week! .......Blessings to you! 😊

Karen, that Grand Opening was tame compared to the 3 Goodwill Grand Openings I have been to in the Washington, DC area. The lines were around the building and there were no spaces left in the parking lot. Only the first people got carts. I had to drag 4 IKEA bags around the store. The check out lines were woven in and out of the aisles around the store. We had to be breaking fire codes to have so many people in the building. It was not possible to get in every aisle. I am truly not exaggerating. It was totally different from your experience. Fun video! Lori

Hello Roger and Karen! Always fun to go treasure hunting with you. (Karen, you always compliment Roger, know wonder he loves you!)

I have a soft spot in my heart for anything by Maurice Utrillo. Growing up in the '60s, my mother had a Utrillo print of a street scene on the wall in the living room of our apartment. He was famous for his street scenes. Your print looks like an especially good one, with a nice frame. A Google image search should tell you the title and where it is. He usually painted scenes of Montmartre (Paris).

Wow, great haul for both you and Roger. So enjoy your videos. Good luck replacing the your right arm (Lisa)

What hauls by you and Roger! I thought of Kayla too when I saw that roaster. Definitely a BOLO. Roger found some amazing games there!

That’s a Goodwill Super Store! Eisles and eiles of great merch! Love! Go out and get what’s yours girl! Kim

What a deal on the Cricut machine! Great haul!

GE Karen - Did you ever venture up to "The Boutique at the Rink" for cancer in Bethlehem? It runs from Tuesday to Saturday after Memorial Day? Thursday and Friday are 1/2 price days and Saturday is fill a bag for $10. I volunteer for it. Have a nice rest of your day.

I grew up on farm outside Sidney, Ohio where Magnalite was produced. Alot of people owned it. Takes me "home" whenever I see it.❤

Lucky you with all the well stocked Goodwill stores! I've never seen anything like you have in Pa in my local GW's in Md.

Hey you're hitting my chicken!😂😂😂
