10:30 I would have taken the baby changing table and DIY it to a bar
Oooh, that's a great idea! I'm wondering if that might help sell the next one that we get... because it's only a matter of time before we do
Sell the weights to quilters or sewers. Great for holding fabric in place while cutting patterns.
Thank you! I definitely would not have thought about that. Actually, I don't think I even realized that they use them. How nice, I really love hearing good new ideas!
Wow! You came across a lot of good items!
It makes it so fun to do, too! (when there are so many good things out there)
The wooden baby bed organizer is a good item for someone who can use it in their storage area to stack items on. Also, the thrift store sells wine glasses for $8 each, especially during the holidays so that is a good find.
That's a good idea! That really helps when I'm trying to figure out whether or not I can sell something... and for what uses
Not garbage picking it's treasure hunting
I have to agree with that!
Xactly!! I call it curb shoppin!
How fun
Looks like some great finds, and a fun day!! I hope everything pays big for you guys. Take care.
Thank you! It has all been selling surprisingly well, so far
Really enjoyed watching the curbside hunt. How fun!! And all Free! So many great finds. Loved the chairs you fixed up for your patio.
Thank you!!! It is so nice to hear. I was really wanting to know if anyone would enjoy this. Especially since we haven't shown this type of treasure hunt before
@@FlippinTheMitten Wonder if you heard of checking out college clean out days. College kids throw out all kinds of great items at end of year.
Ytuber: breafkast does every year
Of course, if it’s allowed in your area.
That does come up sometimes, but it keeps getting forgotten about. We know someone that sees the aftermath of college clean out days -they have mentioned it to us and we have been reminded here in the comments, but still haven't managed to put it on the agenda. So, thank you again for mentioning that! I think I would love picking/treasure hunting at college clean out time
Spring cleaning and moving brings great treasures.
It sure does! I just love when this day shows up!
I just found your channel and I love it! I love the fact that you are together doing the treasure hunting! Keep up the great work!
I'm so glad you found our channel! Thank you so much for those nice words, too!!! It really brightens both of our day to read it
Awesome video thanks ❤
Thank you so much!!! This comment just really brightened my day!
I was garbage picking last week and found 2 boxes of CDs with Bands like Rammstein, Cannibals Corpse,Slayer,Metallica,Korn,
Marilyn Manson .....sold them for over 800€😂😂😂😂😂and kept the ones I liked
That's an awesome find! I love those valuable items that are smaller in size, too
@@FlippinTheMitten That's what I thought😉
The camera needs to point down alittle more 😊
I agree. We tried a different camera mount in this video than we ever have. We were both a little disappointed in some of the footage (we actually lost some that was not good enough) ...; we won't use that one again!
I live right accrocc the Mississippi River from Rock Island County. I'm in Davenport Iowa.
I did this some 50 years ago. Trash pickin', I mean treasure hunting the more affluent neighborhoods. I always said they had more money than brains, lol.
Lol, it does make you wonder when you see all that good stuff
This was a great picking haul!
There were so many good things out there!
I used to live in Rock Island County.
We call this McMansions!
I love it, lol. It's been a long time since I've heard that one, thank you
I would love to find those really old TV, dresser, radio, record player combo sets ( i am an 80s baby so IDK 1950/60/70s ?) we want to do a vintage living room maybe even bedroom-ish.
Those are so cool, I love those! We found an old console record player/radio in a video about 5 months ago and it's still one of my favorite finds all year
Nice job y'all 👍🤓👍
Thank you!!!!!!!
Nice
Thank you! That comment is nice, too!!!!!!
Wish I could jump through the screen and be there with you lol!!!
Lol, that's awesome! Bulk pickup day really is so fun
With those college books that you got check your local college they have a bookstore you can sell them to this and make some money off of it students are always looking for books like that or you can put it online marketplace.
Thank you! The college bookstore is such a good idea. We do normally sell online, but to just take them in somewhere what an amazing quick flip idea!
Well done to you both finding so much stuff. It really does amaze me how people just throw things away like they do, but that is to your benefit. Looking forward to the up and coming storage unit videos and good luck with your flea market 😊
Thank you! It really amazes me, too. We went back the following weekend and just as much was being thrown out. The items are so nice, also. They have been selling very well!
Fellow in Michigander are here. I was wondering if you still have that blue plate with mi on it? Looks like traverse City was stared on it. If you do I would like to but it from you. ❤
Hi, fellow Michigander! I think we do still have it, but we may have it in storage at the flea market. I'll check this weekend and tell you if I find it
Picker patade
It really was! There were moments that the whole block was lined with vehicles picking
Grab the wood it's expensive
I do hate to leave it behind! We left behind a few things that I wish we hadn't, lol
Do you ever run across❤ cheerleading stuff. We recycle All-Star, Youth and school cheer uniforms for Athletes in need and would buy those items
We actually do, sometimes. I really like what you do! It would be so nice to get some things to you! I just subscribed to you, so that I can find you again if we get something. If you ever see any of the things that you can use in a video and I haven't remembered yet, please remind me in a comment and we'll figure out how to get them to you!
@@FlippinTheMitten fantastic thank you I know uniforms a lot of people can't use so they don't get picked up but anything with rhinestones with the team names on them are All Star uniforms normally if there's one piece there there's the other and I will buy it you don't have to give it to us we really need old uniforms tell athletes and I'm trying to look at every platform happy picking
I didn't realize that about the ones with rhinestones. We do see a lot of items in this business and I will definitely keep my eye out!
@@FlippinTheMitten thank you you probably won't find any ever again since I asked 🤣just wish you would have known sooner that way you could of picked up the other ones so many get thrown away and the individual ones like those get used for individual routine .look up all star cheer uniforms:-) if you're curious what they look like.happy pickins I also pick locally and recycle I love it
I agree, I think a lot do get thrown away. I know what you mean about not seeing them again, lol. I bet, or hope at least that we'll see some again!
😎🎉☺️
Thank you for your nice comments!
