Triple Threat Shops 3 Thrift Stores for Antiques & Vintage!

We're with two thrifting pros today in the north end of Cincinnati, Ohio, and we're combing three stores for bargains on old school merchandise! Jocelyn ‪@CrazyLampLady‬ , Sandi from Instagram's @MyFlippinVanLife and I are on a fun excursion to find antique and vintage bargains...who will find the coolest thing?
We start at Goodwill, where we're pleasantly surprised to find great low prices on some cute vintage stuff! A 1950s dog planter for $1, a Disney thermos for $1, Fontanini Italian angels for $2/each...the goods are cute and the prices unbeatable! They even left the jewelry and furniture in this Goodwill, so there's lots more variety than some of their ilk elsewhere. We give a few tips on things to avoid buying and why, then head to the counter to pay.
Next, we head down to the Valley Thrift we saw on our way to an antique mall earlier in the day...it's the third and final one of the three in this chain of voluminous Ohio thrift stores that we're getting to explore! Ties and jewelry were big winners for me at the last Valley Thrift, so I head to the counter with a fun Ralph Marlin 1980s designer tie and score a couple of fun costume jewelry pieces (Coro thermoset, anyone?) as they're restocking the case! Sandi gets in on some of the jewelry action, while Jocelyn discovers cut crystal and a couple of cute 1950s-60s kitschy kitchenware items.
It's just a hop, skip and a jump to St. Vincent de Paul thrfit shop, located just next door! This place is so packed that it's hard to keep organized, but there's bargains in the mix. We manage to pull out a spice set and more costume jewelry...this is a fun shopping date that we hate to see end!

    Etsy defines vintage as 20 years ago, but I disagree! Lots of things made 20 years ago are still being made today, including fake Murano glass, certain Disney items, etc. I am selective about newer Disney, I acknowledge there's a market but I prefer selling items made at least a generation prior to the current generation

    That's true, and it wasn't done lightly because I am a big advocate for free speech! However, free speech is not one-way speech. The person being discussed should actually be part of the conversation, especially when they also can be reached through their own channel's comment section. A back-and-forth thread in my channel's comments about things that pertain to someone else's channel is not the appropriate venue. I hope the people who felt emblodened to speak on my channel about another KZreadr understand that the proper place to address their concerns would be on that person's channel instead.

    Why shop at Goodwill? They are notoriously known for not supporting the poor in their community. You need to You Tube and see the greed they support. Watch Goodwill refuse to give a pair of shoes to a homeless, older woman when a police officer asked them for help. Sham on them and shamenon you for supporting them.

    You are entitled to feel as you wish about them, but not every goodwill in every district acts badly. There are some I won’t shop due to shenanigans, but some are helping people and so I don’t paint them all with the same brush. I also figure that since I donate more when I make Moore money, anything I prize more than them gives ME a chance to help people and donate where I feel is doing the best job.

    I saw the video you are referring to. The interesting thing about Goodwill is that people have a pre-conception that they are there to give things away or sell things inexpensively to underprivileged people. That is not what their non-profit does. Their mission is to offer job opportunities in the communities. Every non-profit has their own mission. On the other hand, Salvation Army Thrift stores development their services based on the needs of the community and some do give items away. I think being critical of a non-profits goals/mission is interesting. There are non-profits whose mission is to spay and neuter pets, raise money for fire departments, etc. This is similar to getting upset with them for not rescuing a monkey or donating to a school. Their mission is their mission, which is employment opportunities. Goodwill is not for donating items to the homeless. That being said I’m not a huge fan of the organization.

    I’m not sure about every Goodwill nationwide, but my brother-in-law worked for Louisville Goodwill. He has a banking background and gave financial advice/financial planning free of charge through Goodwill so people could rent or buy housing, etc. He also worked with their car program, helping people get special auto financing so they could get themselves to better paying jobs. He was paid a moderate salary from a grant that Goodwill Inc. applied for and received. The money from the stores mostly went to pay their employees, I believe.

    @jms4128 Thank you for your thoughtful and reasoned response! I agree that different thrift stores have different aims, and people should contribute to and buy from those that match their ideals. There are certainly enough from which to choose. I'm not a huge fan of the organizaiton either, and I will not donate merchandise to them in several of their markets because I don't agree with how they handle it...so I take it down the street to someone else.

    @missbeccabee This is the thing, Goodwill is managed regionally and it is not the same organization everywhere! I know they do good in some places with some programs.
