I LOVE the witch with the cauldron figurine😍
Maybe I’ll add it to my next giveaway... stay tuned!
I like the semi lit up pumpkin even if you can't fix it. Looks like something you could make if you found the right material.
+cyberi4a I almost think it looks better unlit. It's very reflective!
You know that I love the babies in the pumpkin 🎃👶👶🎃 I sent you another message on Instagram. I have bought lots office things for Halloween at thrift stores, I can always find something for Fall but most of the thrift stores I go to only put out Halloween when stores do but they always have a Christmas section-my fave thrift store does anyway. People are always amazed at the cool stuff I find for so cheap.
Love the urns!! I have the giant pumpkin. Have always used the regular small white bulb and it works great at night.
+Shirley Hawkins I just got my third!
the thrift shops here finally are putting out all Halloween- one had tons of costumes, they had 2 early 90's trendmasters pumpkins i picked up the other day- i can't wait till they all have it out and yes you're right you hvae to dedicate alot of time to go to these places to get good finds
+FordFalcon1962nBlue I get so used to hitting the Goodwills - they always put it out year round - that I neglect the general thrift stores. But now I'm going to go check them out!
The jars look really awesome, but the one thing that worries me about them is that they're the kind of glass that might shatter into dust if poked the wrong way ( and having broken many glasses in my life....that is the worst kind of shatter.)
If you have a Savers check it out. Really good prices there at least in CA
Those ugly babies in the pumpkin are too funny 🤣
I ended up giving those away to an ugly baby collector!
The witch I have the lifesize one by Gemmy you put normal tap water in it and it lights up red and mists its really cool
+Holiday Monster Guy That sounds awesome!
The best time to find Halloween stuff at Goodwill is actually in spring and summer when people clean their attics and garages.
Yes!
That’s why I go year round!
Ceramic witch would make a great candy bowl for candy corns, or some bug/lizard themed candy.
+Brandi Sikora love the big idea!!
+TheBestThings Bug idea... haha
Love the apothecary jars!! My goodness good finds!
+Allthings Pink It's the thrill of the hunt that keeps me at it!
Me too!! I love the hunt and a good find/bargain.
oooh I love that Evil Queen poster!!!
I miss her! She caused too much glare though...
Is it possible to light up the blow molds without electricity. I'm only asking because I don't know how well a power strip will handle a whole row of them.
Excellent question in don’t know the answer to... off hand I think you could wedge a battery powered flashlight in the back
We LOVE decorating for Fall/Halloween -- favorite time of the year!
+National Dispatch LLC Thanks, National Dispatch LLC! Now I know who who will be my go-to company the next time I need to ship my cars! ;)
Great haul! Last year, I found quite a few of the blow mold light sets at Value Village for about $2 a piece... still in great condition.... so don't forget to check out the electrical section!
+Alicia Vogt great tip!
I just picked up an older ghost holding a pumpkin blow mold with the light socket thingy for $4 tonight at GW!!
+Alicia Vogt awesome! And lucky!
Love the Evil Queen poster on the wall
You’re checking out the vault videos!
@@HappyHaunting Yep, I'm trying to beat the Elite Four in Pokemon Ultra Moon by leveling up my team, but it's very time consuming so I figured I'd have a marathon of your Halloween Haul videos in the process. CZcams is selecting the order for me so it's funny how the videos are jumping back and forth between 2017 and 2018.
That tag looks like it came from the thrift store Savers. If so it's my favorite thrift store but unfortunately the one by me closed. If so that is why the Halloween decorations are out all the time. Other thrift store's should do the same.
I pretty much just shop the goodwills even though I keep saying thrift stores...
Great finds again. We have a drop off center next to my store, so I have the ladies that work there looking for Halloween stuff gorgeous me. So far nothing..but here's hoping!
+Susan Burris I love it when people keep an eye out for things for me! I also collect Clue games and anytime there's a new one in stores, I get a flurry of messages!
TheBestThings...I know what you mean. I collect vintage cookware. .Pyrex. .Fireking. .etc..and all my friends and family are always on the look out for me!
ya know anything you wanna throw my way well, I wouldn't say no! love the blow pumpkin!!
+Edie Bluntzer shipping a box that size would cost waaaaay more than I paid for it! Haha
I would place some purple battery operated lights inside the urns. Would give another element of creepiness to them.
+Don White I tried that in one of my other videos! I wasn't sure if I liked it or not... I will try again when I place them out.
GOODWILL? I love that witch!! 🎃🎃 Out of all places lol.. You never know! "Pin the 'Donkey'??'?? " I love it you can never go wrong!! Don't stretch! Stchremmmmmm they're hurting lol 👻 Lol!! Those fruits falling!! The head always barely fits in their!! At 14:05 you will always overlook something never fails.. Lol.
I had one of those and then it didn't work so I took it out and put new lights it was a Christmas one but always check cuz it's always a loose bulb
Good tip!
Nice finds ! I like the candy bowl
+Cole Walker Thanks!
WOW that candy bowl was worth $25 back then PRITY COOL 😁
+HalloweenCrazy ! Well, maybe the better ones! This one has the price listed at $12.99.
Oh 😶
I have quite the collection from the thrift store for all holidays. I was curious to see if eBay had your cat and jack-o'-lantern lamp listed. Someone does and it's going for almost $40! I really like the witch I think she is a nice peace. Oh my gosh those babies in the Jack O'Lantern pumpkin thing are pretty weird. Very creepy for Halloween. Do you think you'll reuse your Apothecary jars after Halloween for something else? I have never seen those chords at the Dollar Tree. I have a village for almost every holiday except for New Year's and St Patrick's Day. Those cords burn out so fast . faster than the light bulb. I guess it's the rotating switch that brakes.
+Emily Carnes $40 for the cat, eh? Nice! But I won't sell it because it has that sort of charm the vintage items have that's so lacking in modern products. I'll probably repurpose the apothecary jars for Christmas by filling them with pine cones or ornaments. Then they'll go in storage til next year. I found a new home for the pumpkin babies already! Someone was very excited about it on Instagram, so I offered to send it to her. I really did just buy it for the video. Haha.
Lil coffin since u like candy jars...u can fill up with candy for prizes for kids
+Rebecca Denney Excellent plan!
Wow how fun looks like you got a lot of great goodies I'm sure you'll be able to fix the pumpkin and get the lights working and I'm so excited to see what you do with the big gumball machine thanks for sharing love the video
+Big Mama Now if only I could find a Picasso in the painting aisle, I'd be really happy with goodwill. One day...
TheBestThings yeah like my neighbor did three years ago found some collectible coin he paid five bucks and it was worth 50 grand I know if we could all be so lucky ha ha
+Big Mama Really, wow! You can bet I google the artists names on every legit looking painting I see there! I've found a few vases worth a couple hundred but that's about it really.
Interesting haul, I love seeing the things you find. A few notes: The pumpkin babies are terrifying and yet I kind of love them too. I love the witch and the black cat, awesome jar find. $11 seems expensive for goodwill but then again they probably retailed for like $30+ they're pretty big and I LOVE the ghouls you're putting inside, they look awesome! It's a shame the giant pumpkin doesn't fully light up, but it would still make a neat visual decoration with the sun catching it in the daytime. :)
+CosmicGrove I agree about the light up pumpkin. I bought him mostly because he was there. I kind of think if I do put him somewhere, he doesn't need to light up...
You could always put a little spotlight or one of those color changing ones on him too. That reflective surface is workable! :)
+CosmicGrove good idea! I have a whole bunch of those fire and ice lights I got on clearance last year. ($2/each!)
I think the fugly naked babies in the pumpkin is my fave! I can totally relate to buying things because they're just the ugliest thing ever. I feel like if it's something that's just so ridonkulously ugly no one else will buy it I am practically compelled to buy it. I feel like if I don't buy it & give it a good home it would end up in a landfill it's so ugly!!
+RogerClyne IsAGod ugly things need love too!
+Eye Of Satan ;)
Ice cube molds for the coffins
Interesting idea. Though I’m pretty sure they’re in a landfill somewhere now...
I think you should put the ugly baby pumpkin in the Headless Horseman's hand....LOL
+cyberi4a ;)
Buying stuff from the dollar store is cheaper than the stuff you pay for at thrift stores. That's the truth!!!
+virgen fj You see a lot of stuff at the thrift stores you can tel came from the dollar store!
Amazing finds! I love the candy bowl
+Mix My Games It wasn't something I would have thought I'd want... but now that I found a bargain, it's much more appealing!
Those are mini whoopee cushions and the powder on them is corn starch!
+Chase The Face That's good to know. What is the point of the corn starch? Is that to keep it from drying out?
I think it's supposed to keep the latex or rubber from sticking together. When you blow it up and moisture gets inside the cornstarch absorbs the moisture.
+Chase The Face Good to know!
I love everything! Great haul /Rachel
Thanks. I already have much better stuff for next time!
I don't know, I kind of like the cauldron witch. She reminds me of the stuff my grandparents have for halloween. Also, she kind of gives off a Hansel and Gretel witch vibe, like "nice old lady, lol sike I'm gonna eat you"
Yum yum!
Awesome green candy bowl find!
Its a gemmy product from 2010
+dd_richart1 Im surprised the batteries still work!
TheBestThings I have one that is already opened. Since I am a collector primarily, perhaps we could swap someday if you wanted, since you are also in ga
+dd_richart1 what specifically do you collect?
+dd_richart1 I've already found a new home for my ugly baby pumpkin! Haha. I'm always open to trade. ;)
Wow great finds. I could never find good Halloween things.
+Sylvia Perez Never say never!
I just found you and just fell in love hahah I love it!
+De valsoney Oh go on! :P
I found the same witch at a other Goodwill
New sub, love this. TFS!
+Allthings Pink Welcome!
I adore the cat and pumpkin !!
+Annette Collins Vintage charm!
I can't ever find Halloween at our thrift stores, always plenty of Christmas though! I guess the people in Atlanta refuse to let go of their Halloween goodies haha.
+Sarah Loves Or maybe it's some snatching them all up before you get there! I'm in Marietta. Mwahahahahaha!
TheBestThings hahaha it is probably you then! I'm in Duluth so I check around the stores over here and in the buckhead area and can't find anything. But man if you're ever looking for some weird but I'm sure expensive Christmas things they have them year around. It's about to be yard sale season again and I'm going to have to keep an eye out...maybe they're too lazy to make it to the donation centers LOL!
+Sarah Loves yeah, I do come across mountains of dusty old broken Christmas junk that you just know just came out of some recently deceased person's home...
Nice finds!
Thanks!
Put goggle eyes on your skeletons too!!

Welcome! Thanks for watching... I usually go to two separate goodwill stores near me and have noticed that one is the “cheap” one and one is the “expensive” one. Haha.
Great haul! Can u please leave a link for that light fixer machine? I desperately need it for the upcoming Halloween and Christmas seasons! Much appreciated, thanks.
+Matthew Riccio I will put a link in the description momentarily!
+Matthew Riccio Done. If you use my link, I'll get a commission and it doesn't cost you any more. ;)
If I were you, I would use that glass container with the plastic apples and put in some water with green and yellow food coloring to look like poison and add the fake apples and possibly paint them to look like the poison apples from Snow White.
Good idea!
@@HappyHaunting You're talking to someone who turned an ordinary Pepsi display and turned it into a Halloween display using Halloween garland on the sides, spider webs to decorate the shelves, and put the Reese's candy boxes on each shelf. Then, I made Snickers treat boxes using the plastic Valentine's Day boxes that looked like Chinese takeout containers, put in some foam hearts and plastic rose petals, and put one of every flavor Snickers bar we had as a Valentine's Day suggestion treat for our Snickers contest. Most recently, for our Eatz cookie contest in July, I made cookie bags with bags with hearts all over and plain blue bags. I printed out the tags online and the heart bags I wrote Eatz to Your Heart's Content and the blue bags had Eatz Will Melt Your Blues Away.
That is so cool im really excited too go to the dollar store and get some more halloween decorations 🎃
+Holiday Monster Guy They have good stuff this year!
TheBestThings Definetley I may also get some halloween stickers and a few light decorations at the dollar store I may go to my thrift store again soon and see what they got in the back area and on there shelves for halloween 🎃
Wow you got some great things 😊👍
+Mystic Moon Not enough!
TheBestThings lol 😂 it's never enough
One month to go.
+Anarchist86ed my countdown sign can only go up to 39 days... so it's not close enough!
awesome haul
+JIMMY'S VHS ADDICTION Thirdt stores have the best Halloween stuff!
I have that hand candy bowl
+Gemmy Master Animatronics I didn't want one until I got it and now I think it's pretty awesome!
TheBestThings ya they are, you should keep it the color it is, the purple one is pretty uncommon because it's just a unusual color for a skeleton, most are obviously witch hands and standard white skeleton hand with black or grey bowls
+Gemmy Master Animatronics I guess I never thought there'd be people out there that collect this sort of thing! Clearly I was wrong!
TheBestThings oh ya it's a popular community and thing for animated items now.
jobeanvideos yep, lol
HI MICHAEL, WHEN YOU PLACED YOUR LARGE GUMBALL MACHINE ON THE TABLE, IT LOOKED LIKE IT HAD A PUMPKIN FACE FROM THE LIGHT UP PUMPKIN THAT WAS BEHIND IT. YOU COULD CUT OUT BLACK TAPE AND MAKE A PUMPKIN FACE ON THE GLOBE. FILL THE MACHINE WITH EYEBALLS AND ONE BLODDY RED EYEBALL. PUT IT OUT AT YOUR PARTY AND WHOEVER GETS THE BLODDY EYEBALL, WINS THE WHOOPIE CUSHIONS. 🎃🎃🎃
+Jackie M. Haha. It's like you know me too well! I originally bought those orange gum balls to make a pumpkin head out of the large machine, but I came up with a better idea. Stay tuned!
Love your finds, but hard to see how they look with your camera so far away! Maybe move the camera closer!
+Kristi Courtney I'll see what I can do!
+Kristi Courtney Also, I do upload the videos in 4K so they look good on big screens... watching on small devices like phones would be a challenge...
Why did you rip the candy bowl box???
+dd_richart1 I don't think I ripped it. I'll have to check. The tab to open it was on the side. (But I didn't think I'd be keeping it!)
TheBestThings If you don't want the box for yours I will gladly take it, as long as you didn't damage it too much
+dd_richart1 I just checked. It's in perfect condition! The top of the box has a bit of creasing... if you want it that much...
+dd_richart1 it has instructions too.
I meant (of nice) not office lol
+Stephanie Loves Fall Haha. I was wondering what sort of office supplies I'd want from the Goodwill!
Lets chew some gum lol
+DOPEDOUTD3MPZ Stay tuned for my next video (tomorrow)! You'll be blown away!
