Check for meetup groups in your area, your library can help you find them, to see if there are other retirees getting together for fun, there are ALL kinds of activities. The public library is pretty entertaining too, and a source of local information. You should enjoy your retirement, you worked for it!
I don't know if I'm the only one but I've missed your chatty haul videos so much! I love the shopping videos too, but these are my favorite! Because the reason I watch your videos is your knowledge and personality! And yes, my absolute favorite is when you go down the rabbit hole!💗 Got my drink, here we go!!🎉
Don't enjoy the videos when you're not in store shopping and especially when you're pulling items to mail. I feel you can do that when you're not shopping. Just saying.
I’m sure we can all agree we are glad she has a little bit of everything for everyone. I support her content so I will watch what she hands me 😊 love it all!
Of course it’s no problem Karen. The “buyer” was quoted 200 by UPS but it ended up being 300. 🤣🤣It was worth it. Love my dishes.!!! thank you ROGER for taking them to UPS for me!!
Oh my, I want your Coach purse and the little dresser!!!!! Wonderful haul. Beautifully presented. Love listening to you, so keep up the chatter!!! Love all your videos. Shows just how hard you work, and how much you love what you do.
I am certain your yellow ceramic bread basket is from William Sonoma. It is exactly like mine which is burgundy. You place it in the oven to heat up and then it keeps your bread and rolls warm during dinner.
That deer candleholder from India would look amazing on a small battery-operated turntable, reflecting the deer prancing all over the room. We knew that was your booth Valentines day haul...LOL. I do have a ceramic bread basket...they can be oven-heated for 5-10 minutes and help to keep rolls warm.
Thank you for sharing your business life with us. I wholeheartedly enjoy being with you while you shop at Goodwill. There is no one else on eBay as good as you.
Would you ever do a short shipping video? I know they aren’t for everyone, but I know you are probably the best, most careful shipper out there. I’m so curious about your process.
You work so hard and are so pleasant and informative and honest (just my impressions, but I think I'm right) that I'm thrilled to hear you are successful at what you do.
Whale watching: My daughter hosts whale watching tours from smaller boats (about 40’ sized) in the waters off Puerto Vallarta, but also surfs those same waters. She relates a story about being out on her board, when it started to move sideways, against the normal flow and a bit later one of the whales broached alongside her. She has taken some beautiful photos from the boats as she has guided her tour groups over the years.
I visited an amish village once and the family that was selling things told us that the baskets they had for sale were made by their children--it was what they got to do in their free time! So, if they were good and got their work done, they got to make baskets.
I have had since the 80s the matching bookends of the owl on a branch wall hanging that you picked up. It's definitely from the 70s and it has all sorts of matching items that can be found. Love it! First time I posted so I want to say thank you for all the hard work that you then share with us. It doesn't go unnoticed and unappreciated. I look forward to every one of your videos
Hi, when buying any salesmen sample or furniture in general always make sure it has dovetailing front and back of side of drawer. These are the higher quality pieces and more sought after. I've seen beautifully made miniature pieces of furniture that had dovetailing throughout and these are the pieces you want to buy.
Wow! What a great haul! I love wicker/rattan furniture, shelves & trays. That little table is wonderful! I also love the red Coach purse & the salesmen dresser is absolutely amazing. I enjoy all of your videos because I enjoy your personality & I feel like I’m hanging out with a friend. I think you do a great job making videos for everyone to enjoy. Thanks, Karen. 💕
The "critter bag" was so fun! I love things like that. It's like finding a treasure chest. The bowl is travertine, I believe. There are different types, but the kind I put in my bathroom also had clear areas that look almost like clear cooked rice. Thank you for your videos. Your warmth and kindness shine through as does Roger's and your love for each other. ❤
Such a great time I had today watching you Karen. Love the bunny Roger bought you and the bunny tea pot is adorable. So many beautiful things to see. Thanks Karen.
I love all your videos. I never thought I would be interested in clothing but since I have learned so much about brands from you, I am expecting to do very well reselling clothing! and so easy to ship! Thank you, Karen!
Ferragamo has a home in the New York Hudson Valley area. One of my former students (now a grown man & pastor 😊!) was his personal assistant, decorator, nanny, chef and more for many years. It was Rob's job to have the house ready when he visited and to maintain it when the family was away.
GREAT haul, Karen! I really love the things you were able to score at 50% off! Something about your listing for "The Thinker" brass bookends made my brain twang! 😮 (Note: I did not actually register this info before... so I'm learning, too! 😊) "The verb “cast” is considered irregular, meaning it simply doesn’t follow the standard rule of adding the suffix “-ed” to form the past tense. So, instead, “cast” just stays the same in the past and present tenses, whether you’re using it in the simple past or past participle. Just remember that “cast” is the word you use for all forms and tenses. It can be a verb, as well as a noun, and you should shy away from ever using “casted” in any sense." Good to know!
Karen, you guys NEED a cat, TWO! Two will keep each other company while you're out. Definitely start with kittens. They bring so much laughter in your life. I wouldn't recommend long hair because of fur balls and shedding but 2 kitten rescues NEED YOU!... if you've never had an indoor kitty, you don't know what you're missing❤❤❤... now back to your video. I so enjoy them👍
Sometimes, people don't want to buy things from a house with cats(allergies). I don't have this problem 😁. We occasionally take in the odd homeless kitty cat 🐱 🐈 😺 😻 😽
@@lisahaney9019 just think of all of the homes with cats who donate to GW? Unless it is a piece of cat merchandise, there's no telling where it came from. I doubt those folks would buy thrifted anything, you know?
I love ALL types of your videos. You work so hard to accomplish all that you do! I love the rabbit that Roger found for you. Congratulations on your continued CZcams success!
Re the brass bunnies: The brass animals from Korea tend to have more whimsical type features and smoother lines and the ones from India tend to be more textured and realistic looking.
Hi, Karen! The pig is cute but being a cat and dog person myself, I love those :> The gold ceramic cat looks like he's been set free after a long winter - boy, won't that be all of us ;> The bear (meant to look woodgrain) seems like she's been listening to some sad-girl music.
I was so excited to see that you had made a new haul video in your dining room! I have been missing these videos so much. They are definitely my favorite videos that you make. I also love the added segment of seeing you pull your shipping. It’s always fun to see what others are selling in real time. Thank you so much for your channel and all the hard work you put in to it. You’re much appreciated.
Congrats on your CZcams earnings, deservedly so. The mini chest of drawers is what’s called an apprentice piece and you’re right it would make a lovely jewelry chest. The scratches could be disguised with a little beeswax. I googled Clarence Itmeyer but couldn’t find any info.
I love all of your videos. My favorites are the flea market (LOVE Roots!), yard sales, and hauls. Your GW stores are amazing, and I am interested in seeing the items you find. Thanks so much for your great content. Congrats on your accomplishments. ❤️
Great video .. and really great haul. I would suggest selling the peach lucite candle and the wood sconce separate. They seem to be two very different styles and I think you’d make more profit if sold separately.
I just love watching your videos. You have such a calming voice while shopping. You and Roger are just adorable together. Do we love a good picker, YES WE DO!!! ❤
Love the lidded TP basket. Plastic miniature animals make good toppers for canisters when spray painted same color as the canister. I would use the dresser salesman sample as a jewelry box, lining with velvet.
The lucite candle from Solvang, Ca should bring you top dollar. It’s a tourist destination on the central coast. Lots of small shops with pricy souvenirs. Very fun excursion.
Karen, I have that same whale tail/splash photo. I got it for my 25th birthday and you know I am older than you so, maybe there are a few out there or maybe you got lucky and got an original. Wouldn't that be fantastic!! Back to you to finish watching
Hi Karen, I really enjoyed your thrift haul. FYI, the beautiful lucite candle is from Solvang, CA a beautiful Danish village and popular tourist destination north of Santa Barbara.
I love you and your husband together as you explained the similarity of being resellers…Truly a divine union 🥰 and bonus you both are a very attractive unit 😊
I just bought a yellow ceramic looped bowl like the one you showed! Mine is round with a braided rim from Espana. Not sure if I'm selling or keeping. Right now I'm enjoying it myself. 😊 I love when you take us with you into the store. I'm in PA also but our Goodwills in the Pittsburgh area are not nearly as full as yours, so I have a little east PA envy. Lol
I'm retired and one day is very like another but I am always aware of Wednesdays and Sundays because I look forward to your videos. Thanks.

She’s kind and not braggish
I agree love these videos more ❤
I love her shipping, shopping, and hauls. Really enjoy the variety.
Had me giggling when you said with such enthusiasm "He is one of the best pigs I have ever found." He is pretty cute!! 😍
The rabbit is precious.... Roger gets extra 👏 for that 😊
Sweet Karen. You are an inspiration to us all. You deserve all the success in the world.
You must have the best Goodwills around you. I went in one of ours yesterday and it was really all junk....I never see good finds like you do !
I agree 100%. The Goodwills and thrift stores near me never have such nice things.
Of course it’s no problem Karen. The “buyer” was quoted 200 by UPS but it ended up being 300. 🤣🤣It was worth it. Love my dishes.!!! thank you ROGER for taking them to UPS for me!!
😂 you must love those dishes!
@@mariaroldan4200yes! They are vintage & very collectible!
The bunny teapot is adorable.

Apparently Jonas Gingrich and his family sell Amish Baskets that are quite well known.
Beautiful basket 🧺
I am certain your yellow ceramic bread basket is from William Sonoma. It is exactly like mine which is burgundy. You place it in the oven to heat up and then it keeps your bread and rolls warm during dinner.
Love your taste in your selections. All the animals were great, especially the Roger Rabbit...lol! Great video
😂😂😂lol! Cute!
Great video. I DO enjoy your clothing haul videos. Please continue to do them! Thanks
Karen, I really like how you are careful about your buy-in-price. And of course, you always pick quality items.

I second that.
I have that same gold kitty. My mom gave me the set for Christmas in the late 70s. The others kitty is sitting with its sweet face looking up.
Love watching you pull shipping and would love to see you package the items!
I would love packing videos, too.
I like to watch whatever you want to show us. Home, yard, shipping, flea market................! Thank u ❤ Kathlene
Exactly!!! ❤
You work so hard and are so pleasant and informative and honest (just my impressions, but I think I'm right) that I'm thrilled to hear you are successful at what you do.
I absolutely love the green rabbit!!! Omg 😱 so adorable and the vibe is just cozy
I am so glad you are doing great on this platform. I really enjoyed your videos so thank you
Karen, we love your chattiness! 😊

Gingerich baskets are Amish baskets beautiful find!
I love the tall basket, rabbits and that little bureau. You always find great items
I love all your videos. I never thought I would be interested in clothing but since I have learned so much about brands from you, I am expecting to do very well reselling clothing! and so easy to ship! Thank you, Karen!
Your store is amazing! So happy for you and Roger
These are my second favorite style of videos! The first is when she pulls merch that sold!
That little.wood dresser is a child's dresser. I refinish furniture. Sometimes there is a top for it, that is for a small towel. They're adorable
I appreciate your videos. I so enjoy seeing what you buy, listening to your conversation and hearing you laugh. Thank you for sharing with us all.
The basket is for toliet paper.
Love the brass cone shape candle holder.
Yes! Isn't that the BEST!

They are like an antidepressant!!!! Such joy!😺

We occasionally take in the odd homeless kitty cat 🐱 🐈 😺 😻 😽
As a fellow kitty LOVER with 3 of my own....I agree 1000% they definitely need TWO- one for her and one for Roger! 🐈⬛🐈⬛😻

The wood owl is Cryptomeria: it's cut, carved and flame-burned to get the effect, then varnished(usually). That one is worth about $25-$32.
1970's
I like your thrift videos, your haul videos, your yard sale videos etc etc et al.🤓
Re the brass bunnies: The brass animals from Korea tend to have more whimsical type features and smoother lines and the ones from India tend to be more textured and realistic looking.
The pig! The cat! I''m going to the thrift tomorrow! Great videos Karen as always
You should keep that small chest of drawers! Fits your decor! Love it! Love the rabbits and cats!❤
Love cats. Just sold one for $124!
It's a, "Roger Rabbit".

My sisters and I love love love the haul!
A different kind of video😊 than Good will. Thank you!
My favorite videos are your hauls and yard sales!
Yay!! A haul!! I have missed your haul videos!! I love all of your videos but your hauls are the best!!
~Tammy
A thrifting road trip to go whale watching would be so fun🌞 Went many yrs ago in MA & I think about it often.
So glad that you & Roger now have a booth! It opens up lovely options for your thrifting! ❤
I love the home hauls you used to do. Thanks
Your finds are the greatest.
I agree
I love the haul videos! I’ve missed them and all your knowledge. ❤
I know you will sell that owl 🦉 very quickly.
He is gorgeous!
I’m a huge collector of them !
Hi from Australia 🙂 Karen the elastic with the Bow and Bunny Token around the Pigs neck, is from an Aldi Choceur CHOCOLATE Easter Bunny, lol.
That is wonderful! Thank you for the information. It makes the little pig even more adorable
OMGoodness.....grabbing my tea. My favorite videos.....woo hoo

Karen loved all your great buys! I am happy to watch any video you are nice enough to create for us.
I love these it’s almost like an educational tutorial ❤
I really love the hauls that you show Karen. I enjoy the thrifting also! Thanks for all your hard work you do for CZcams and us!❤️
Your tall green rabbit is fabulous.
I just love watching your videos. You have such a calming voice while shopping. You and Roger are just adorable together. Do we love a good picker, YES WE DO!!! ❤
Karen, I had that exact same cardinal wall sconce for a wedding gift in 1982. Good vintage find!
The sconce is supposed to have a globe on it.
Love the lidded TP basket. Plastic miniature animals make good toppers for canisters when spray painted same color as the canister. I would use the dresser salesman sample as a jewelry box, lining with velvet.
Karen that was a haul of all hauls!!! I tip my hat to u!!!💞💞🙃💞💞
Thank you Karen❤ Love your videos~hauls & thrifting. So glad that you are doing so well on your CZcams channel!!
A pig with a necklace and then a cat with a necklace. Must be the latest trend in the animal kingdom. Ha, ha! 😊
I love the tall basket and the rabbit is beautiful 🥰
I love the doll for napkins or hankies wonderful to learn awesome items you and yours always find!!
I have always Loved your Haul videos! So happy to have a new one❤
I have been whale watching here in beautiful BC we saw babies breaching with mama.....a spiritual experience!!!!! Love your eye for art.
I loved the haul video. A very nice change from the inside of the Goodwill.

Is the long basket for collecting long stemmed wild flowers or the like? Would also be cute for TP! ❤
Pulling shipping is my favorite video. Such a great visual of your organizational skills.
