    First off, everyone needs a bin full of gloves if the price is right. Second, when Thom said how much food do you need, you should've said "You kept finding donuts, I didnt" 😂🤣

    Just paused the video to say how much I hate books sorted by colour!! It’s so stupid. It tells me you don’t actually read books you just have them for the aesthetic.
    But great video Mel! Thanks so much for sharing 😊

    • @backfromburnout

      Agree. I think it’s someone who has OCD who sorts them like this. They look pretty but it’s so hard to see what you’re looking for.

    • @backfromburnout
      @backfromburnout  Před měsícem +3

      I hate having to ask how much every book I’m interested in is. I have margins to meet and I like to calculate them in my head. My favourite stores are the ones who just do a flat rate pricing. Paperbacks one price. Hardcovers another. Makes it so much easier for me to shop and those are the stores I spend the most money in on a continuous basis.

    15:25 "You gotta be joking." He took the words right out of my mouth. I swear. I love a thrift store, but there was no thrift in that store! Dang!
    There is a local library bookstore who overprices their books. One day I saw a book in there and I knew I could sell it for $14-$15. I looked it up for comps. I thought to myself, "I'll bet they're going to have it priced right at $15." But no! They had it priced for $35! And not only that, but they'd written that price in INK, ruining the otherwise okay condition book. Couldn't erase that $35. Even if I wanted to pay $35 for a $15 book. Some places are just crazy.
    14:33 That IS distracting! Wow. I couldn't deal with that.

    I've never seen color coordinated books on shelves. It makes me feel that people don't know the alphabet or care for books and reading. I am very oriented to colors, but appropriately in fabrics for quilts and such.

    • @backfromburnout
      @backfromburnout  Před měsícem +1

      I think colour coding books is often done by people with OCD who like things done a specific way and order. I find it hard to scan the books with my eyes when the colours are all the same like that. I can see it looks pretty on the shelf like a rainbow display but I think it would possibly hurt the stores sales.

      No I don’t think we were in western suburbs this trip. Thom drives so I don’t pay much attention to locations we go to lol. I’m happy to be a passenger princess 😂

    That Lifeline had to have been taking the piss with those book prices. That's brand new at the bookshop pricing, shameless.

      Expensive area of Sydney to live with expensive prices to match.

    When I do a google search for tip shops I don’t see any in Sydney apart from places to dump your rubbish 🙄

      We have tip shops in Canberra also and they’re great.
