Almost Missed It! | Try These GOODWILL THRIFTING Alternatives

THRIFTING ANTIQUES & VINTAGE | Consignments for Your Habitat | SHOP WITH ME

Goodwill can be so great!--but when it's not, we find other places to find antiques and vintage our collectors enjoy, at thrift store prices to boot! We visit a few thrifting alternatives you're likely to find in any metro area in this video. Can we find cool collectibles and hot deals?

We start at a big consignment store, where antique and vintage cabinet and tabletop items often used in their displays of quality resale furniture. Consignment stores usually price above wholesale at first, but prices drop monthly, so we look for the dates on the tag to find the discounted bargains! We come out with a simple advertising ashtray that turns out to be worth $20-25, and a set of really groovy 1970s orange stools that are a better deal than the last set we got at the flea market!

Then it's on to Habitat for Humanity, the thrift store arm of the now famous home building charity that has shops coast-to-coast. Recently, they've expanded beyond furniture and building supplies, carrying a variety of household and kitchen items that generally include antique and vintage pieces, sometimes priced as low as 50 cents! MCM cookie jars, Dresden Lace dancers and a set of 1969 Fiesta Ware with a pattern (really!) are finds for us.

We try a funky junk store along the route, realizing that it is a true dig that will require a lot more digging to make profitable for us vintage resellers. A Coke tray from 1950 catches our eye, along with taxidermy, brass torches, even Hillary Beer! We'll have to come back to this one to see what trickles through, it's a big pile that appears to heap higher regularly. Next time, maybe we'll pick up those wonderful church candelabra we can't fit in the car today!
