- EXPLORING THE REALITY OF THE AMERICAN YARD SALE EXPERIENCE
Another weekend means that I once again embark on a hunt into the unknown looking for vintage toys and other pop culture collectibles. Some days you walk into one yard sale or garage sale and find something beyond your wildest dreams. Other times, you explore 20 different sales and barely scrape together a decent haul reflective of your time. Most days, however, are like this! Yard sale / garage sale ride along!

I feel like a lot of your viewers watch your videos regardless of if there is a big hit. Your content and mainly yourself is why we keep coming back for more
Literally. It could be a 20 minute video of talking about nothing, and I'd be like "Hell yeah, new Froggy video."
When you’re as rad as he is, everything is 🔥
agreed
Exactly how I feel too
awesome recognises awesome froggy rules 😁✌️🇬🇧😎
Nothing is more uncomfortable then walking up to a yardsale, having some fun interaction with the person running it, then upon looking at what is for sale know within 10 seconds there is nothing there for you and having to do the awkward "welp, thanks! have a good day" and getting out of there as quick as possible. I always feel bad.
glad i’m not the only one, yard sales around my town aren’t that great so i always watched froggys videos to cope😂
I always end up at least buying something cheap lol
This is original froggy, and I'm here for it. Always release these
Glad you liked it!
@FroggyFlips man, you could post a ten hour video of you swapping "I appreciate yous" to each other, and I'd lap it up. Ha ha.
Thanks for the reminder that yard sales may not always be "bangers", but they are always FUN!
It's sad to know the greatest days to be a kid and for toy releases are long gone. Kids aren't even the same anymore, its all about the Ipad now. We all live in the past and appreciate your "In my day" stories!
True but noticed there a lot of young cats who collecting modern toys esp modern Transformers who getting big on social media and will keep the art alive. Plus these channels R seen world wide will influence peo in the future. Not to mention the money aspect for buying N resales.
You'll own or have nothing and like it.
I love yard sales and thrifting. 😊
It’s a lot of fun!
@@FroggyFlipsYou never know what you'll find. That's the intriguing thing. Keep up the great videos. 👍
i thought u said trafficking 🤣
Vids like these are my favorites and here is why:
For a european guy watching these religiously I dont necessarily watch any videos for any specific toy or score but more for the scene itself. The shots of peoples neat driveways and different setups of stands the chatter and the cozy porches etc basicly everything is gold for me. The outdoor sales are my favs for sure! Reminds me of my childhood watching movies dreaming about living large in the States hah - please keep these type of videos Froggy the whole vibe is what I am here for ! Many greetings from Denmark
I live here in the states but love what you do about these vids. Maybe just seeing how other people live. Or seeing all the things they have for sale. Plus I'm a huge yard sale/thrifter. I hear that it isn't as common in Europe
Me too..from England 😂
yup, i agree. from london. we have similar stuff but less quantity
I don't know about everyone else, but I didn't start following this channel for the "wow factor" I started following to watch a dude walk around yard sales! :) it doesn't always have to be wow my good man, we will watch either way. Also, Broadsides and Boarding Parties is an absolute classic.
The thrill of the hunt is the only thing that truly matters. Yes, it's great to find top shelf pieces, but that's not going to happen every time. Plus, like you said, it forces you to become creative and look down other avenues.
Kids today truly are missing out on the fun activities we had in the 80's and 90's. Going to eat at pizza hut then a stop at blockbuster on the way home was the greatest thing ever.
Thanks for the upload Anthony and keep up the great work 👍
I miss these videos! I'm a collector and I sale from time to time, I think for me its the Hunt. I love digging through stuff and regardless of they are dirty I just want to give it a home! Nice job Anthony!
Gosh, you're right, I'd probably take my kids to a retro style pizza place, complete with arcade machines and soda in a pitcher super gladly. Now that I'm the same age as an old person I get nostalgia so hard. That smell of the pizza cooking and the loud beeps of the x-men/simpsons/turtles game in the corner where a couple of kids were being just a little too loud, I miss it.
Awesome video! Its the obscure items like that pitcher that are my favorite to collect. Things that are not to expensive but have incredible nostalgia connected to them. Thank you for your videos. Take care.
ANTHONY!! JUST LIKE THE GOOD OLD DAY'S!!! PLEASE KEEP THEM COMING!!! CAN'T WAIT 4 YOUR NEXT ONE!!! THANK YOU 4 ALL THE GOODNESS!!!❤😂😂🙏🫶🤣👍❤️🐸
Thanks man!
I still love watching, no matter how quiet. Im in the uk an i love everything Americano, i watch the bins too. We never see the real usa when i was growing up. ❤❤❤❤❤ im only upset you didnt get kermit. Although Gonzo is my boy😊
My pizza experience in the Memphis TN area, was Shakey’s Pizza with red and white tablecloths and 8 millimeter film movie nights 😅
And yes, I remember when it was special to eat at Pizza Hut. Like a real sit down restaurant. It was pretty much the go to place for kids to go on a date in my small hometown - Attica, IN.
We used to have a Noble Roman's as well and remember having our birthday parties there. They allowed us in the back to make our own pizzas and there was a viewing area where your family and friends can watch through a large window. Brings back a lot of great memories!
Man, what a great time!
@@FroggyFlips indeed, that experience along with many others no longer exist today so we have to keep the memories alive as long as we can!
I see new groggy… I click… I like… before the clip starts 😊
Anthony we are viewers because we Luv Ya! You don't always have to find the coolest items for us to want to watch.
I have such fond memories from dining at Pizza Hut restaurants. From Book-It and making our own personal pan pizzas to the TMNT/Pizza Hut partnership and playing Turtles in Time in the restaurant arcade to the first time ever tasting a red chili flake by putting exactly one flake on my tongue lol. Nostalgia overload and I miss it!
Yes Book-It! I meant to mention that one!!
We have some great Pizza King's in Lafayette! Especially the one on 18th and Veteran's. Still has that old experience we had as kids. You order through a little speaker with a button, a train brings the drinks around through a tunnel in the wall that goes back to the kitchen, and you can watch TV in your own little private booths using a Quarter every 15 minutes. We still love it!
Dude, what?! That sounds awesome!
I don't mind the somewhat more mundane hunts at yard sales. Part of the enjoyment is just seeing what people have, your interactions with people, and just wandering around outside (vicariously, of course). My favorite item would be this 15:00 Rocketeer puzzle just because of the art. Creator Dave Stevens' work is really hot right now (albeit mostly his good girl art), and although I don't think he designed that, it's still a cool illustration. Definitely worth a buck.
Yard sales and estate sales were my childhood. Going with my grandparents, and getting 5 bucks for the day to spend on what I wanted. When the 5 bucks was gone, that was it, and I found some good stuff always. These vids bring me back and make me miss those days. I can smell the garages and the old stuff for sale, and the Midwest grass and humidity. Love it all.
We like the downs as well as the ups! Like is a balance and we’re with you for the journey!
I don’t care about a big hit. I just love seeing the hunt. Seeing what could be out there is what I love. Obviously I want you to get great stuff, I just love the hunt of it all. Keep posting these Froggy!
I totally forgot about the Pizza Hut experience. So much has changed since we were kids. Toys in the Corn Flakes, the Toy soldier you got at the dentist, the free show bags at the state show. Thanks for taking us along on this hunt for small treasures.
The video of yard sales are more random, for me it’s relaxing and intriguing to watch, more like this is very welcome
It's all about the journey, "big" or "small" finds are part of yardsales....keep the videos coming Froggy
I loved this video still. Reminds me of your old videos when I first started following you. Always happy when a new froggy vid pops up. Much love from the across the pond 🇬🇧
I'm glad you posted the video and showed the reality that not every yardsale is a succes. Relatable!
I miss your old videos of just trawling through yard sales. Doesn't matter at all if there is a big find. Please keep uploading videos like this!
The second garage sale you passed over lamb chop? Very iconic character.
I’ll admit…I KIND of regretted that 😂
@@FroggyFlips lamb chop and Charlie horse!
oh damn
One might think that this is not the best vid to watch after a long break but I enjoyed it. Thank you, we need to appreciate chill and kind dudes like you.
So happy to see you at yardsales again
Keeping the videos relatable is important. Having mediocre days is definitely relatable.
D'you know what? Even on a "nothing-special" yard sale, you can make a story out of it and keep us entertained. You never disappoint. Great watch
froggy youre so humble. letting us all know how tiny average yardsales are I would have never guessed if it wasn't for your channel.
I remember the Noble Roman's Monster from when I used to live in Indianapolis in the early 90s! At the restaurants, a guy would dress up as the monster and walk around to everyones' table and scream, "Did you order a monster!?" Oh, the memories!
Excellent yard/garage sale video 🐸 Anthony..😍😮 Love the Noble Romans monster pitcher and I agree with pizza place's not having the nostalgia like they used to..😢 The VHS haul was pretty sweet..🎉 Take care buddy..👍❤🔥🤙
For sure, man! They’re missing such an opportunity!
@@FroggyFlips can't afford to pay youthful restaurant staff any longer ($15/hour minimum wage)
It’s all about the treasure hunt. Thanks for sharing your experiences
Seeing your video post makes my day!! Thanks bro 👊
Well thanks!
I totally get what you mean about pizza nights man. We had a local Noble Romans and we would have Birthday parties there and all the kids got to go back and make their own personal pizzas. Good times mate!
Please keep doing videos like this too. They are refreshing and a great introduction for someone who is starting out to get started. Plus it makes the big scores more exciting.
That Noble Romans pitcher looks like it is a DEKA Footsie pitcher. We had the one with the smiley face when I was a kid. One of my greatest childhood memories.
It is a Deka!
Yes! The juke box…salad bars…..pitchers of soda! ❤
We all love froggy we don’t care as long as you put a video up. You are amazing
I love that you showed this, Im so happy that Garage sale season is back on for you. Seeing the big splashy items is cool but just seeing the slice of middle America garage sale is awesome you never know if you are going to get worn out stacks of VHSs, board games missing half the pieces, and melted tupperware lids or a stack of 20 pound blocks of gold wrapped in tin foil marked $2 or best offer.
Anthony you always surprise me my brother ✌️🙌
I really like and appreciate that at no time have I ever seen you try to low-ball a seller. You pay what they ask and are always respectful. I see some shameless behavior by many of the most popular CZcams Resellers but you never behave that way. Thank you for being above that and for your integrity.
Awesome, Froggy. I'm glad you posted this video. Any hunt is always an adventure.
We all Love that you are Always on the grind. The hard work you put into life is truly remarkable. Love ya Anthony!
Froggy I gotta say. You don’t need no special jaw dropping moment ever. We come to just watch anyway. Post as much as you can. Haha.
When I go garage saling or hit an estate sale, I enjoy the people’s stories as much as the finds. If I can walk away with a new story, it’s still a win.
Thank you for this video even the ones without great items it's still fun to watch the hunting. As to the yellow monster cup I was very curious about it when you picked it up. Thanks for letting us in on the cup.
To be honest, it has the opposite effect on me where finding some crazy awesome thing every time gets boring to me. I started watching for the cool yard sale experiences and your awesome personality about it, and they'll always be my favourite kind of Froggy video. Of course, getting the big views with a crazy find is somewhat important, but videos like this are still fun to watch!
Nice haul, loved the vhs collection and yep, definitely looking forward to Beetlejuice 2!
Totally! Can’t wait!
I’m so glad you posted this vlog. I have so many memories of family time spent in a Pizza Hut. Also, Captain Kangaroo was part of the morning getting ready for school. Thanks again
It’s always cool seeing you find something amazing, but honestly I just enjoy watching you on the hunt. 🎉
This is actually good because people probably think you go to places and find real good stuff all the time sometimes you just have to keep on going to find that real good thing
When I was a kid, i got to enjoy that dine in pizza hut experience you're talking about. Looking back, ill always appreciate it.
Froggy Flips….I know how you felt about releasing this video but “it’s the thrill of the hunt” and makes it fun to watch what you might find👍🏻
Anybody who yard sales and thrifts know you strike out more times then not. It the thrill of the hunt. Love the content🎉
One of my favorite vids in a while. Classic froggy video. The hunt is great!
This average day was pretty cool and entertaining. You are one of the best channels for toys and yard sales.
I'm glad you shared this. It gets SO discouraging to hunt and hunt, and not find anything when we watch CZcams and every find is legendary. Thanks for reminding us that it's not always sunshine and roses.
Love all the videos, but have to say I’ve missed these types of good ole yard sale videos. You made me nostalgic for watching you hunt for nostalgia 🤯…well played sir, well played!!!
Whatever you put out here, we're gonna watch! Just keep em coming!
Your videos can make my bad day turn good so easily . Thanks Mr frog ❤️
The "WOW" factor is you my friend. Don´t worry about what you find.
Thank you for keeping it real...! Always enjoy everything you post
that is still totally fun to watch. the sound of the rummage is nice on the ears
Love watching you hunt at yard sales to see what else you buy as an alternative to toy shows. It’s interesting thankyou.
Your average day looks pretty good to me.The people are so polite and friendly.Well done on finding the two Reaction Alien figures.
even it doesn't contain any "WoW factor" as long as you posted it, it's still worth to watch 👌👌👌🙏
It was an episode about the grind.
Appreciate the honesty, it's great to show everyone all aspects of the hunt.
its good to see that it's not all rare toy finds and interesting oddities, there's a certain grind to what you do also. keep it up Anthony.....
Oh it’s a grind for sure!
Thank you so much for keeping it real, it feels as if some streamers these days do whatever's necessary to get the views rather than keeping it honest with their viewers… again. Thank you so much.
I enjoyed it quite a bit. I'm glad you decided to release this one.
Thanks for sharing.
It is what it is.
I still like yard sale videos like this better than convention videos. Thanks Froggy
As a family we went to Godfathers pizza memories I will never forget . Seeing Captain kangaroo again brings back memories as well I happen to be talking about this show with friend the other day . Great video I really enjoyed it . Thank you .
Man, love The Black Hole puzzle and the Captain Kangaroo one also...fun finds!
Love these “grind” videos!! Thanks Anthony!
This is a great video, don’t know this dude or the channel but it’s nice to see someone not extreme haggling and looking up price to see how much they sell for. This is a breath of fresh air
I love the blur switch to the next…..action packed
Any froggy flips video is a good video and enjoyable to watch and what great puzzles gremlins being my favourite 😎🇬🇧✌️
Hey Anthony, this type of video is just fine. Very enjoyable
You nailed it about the old pizza places...many good times as a kid
ven the lesser pieces are fun to find.. Thanks for sharing with us.. Nostalgia rings all of our chimes..
I grew up in the hometown of Pizza Hut, and agree 100% on missing the old school set up. Salad bar, personal pan, Book It, and sit down/table arcade games. Good days.
Love the Black Hole puzzle. First thing I watched when I got Disney+. From the day the service was announced I was waiting to revisit that movie from my childhood.
Thx! I've missed these videos. Old school Froggy video vibe.
Anthony keeps it real. Love it.
My brother worked at Noble Romans when he was going to Butler. It was in Broadripple, which was a very cool community. Loved it.
That fright night 1 and 2 vhs score was pretty awesome!
The game was a nice score. Never heard of it before. Love the pitcher. Definitely worthwhile nostalgia.
Really love that gremlins puzzle
I don’t collect toys or anything but I do love to watch your video. I’m here for the content, regardless if you find something or nothing
Also a huge Prince fan, saw him in concert and probably the most amazing show ever.
