    "My" bins was only ten miles from my home. Then it closed. There is one thirty miles away and I went once. I was not impressed. The bins I go to now is 62.5 miles away, on the PA turnpike. It is run very efficiently and they rotate one row (there are four rows) every forty minutes. I quickly realized that I should take my lunch and stay through two rotations. That is a long day for a 74yo man although it has gotten easier since I have been doing it for six months now. I go twice a week. I get enough stuff that I can list four things everyday. After they rotate the fourth row and I have gone through it, I pay and then I eat the lunch I have made in my car. Then after I eat and catch my breath I go back in for the first afternoon rotation. Then after the rotation of the fourth row it is time to go home. The closing of my bins has worked out better than I expected.

    A few months ago I mentioned to you how I didn’t really care for my local bins…..most items were less than desirable. You encouraged me to give it a chance and go back. Well….I may be turning into a “bins” girl!!! I haven’t found any backlist items, but I have found some really good bread and butter items and several items for various family members. My bins prices are very reasonable: $2.49 for up to 25 lbs and $1.79 for over 25 lbs. Sorry, I’m not rubbing it in, but you do seem to find some really good/better name brand items. Our bins is super chill….the t-shirt bros are there, but they’re super quick and go back to their corner :-). So far, no great linens at the bins, but I have found some great linens on my thrift route. Goodwill is by far the most over priced thrift in my area (North Alabama).

    • @TheGratefulQueen
      @TheGratefulQueen  Місяць тому +3

      I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!! I hope everyone reads this and learns from you. You gave it a 2nd chance and it was better. I was at the bins yesterday and it was pretty bad. If that had been the 1st time I went, I would have said never again. Some days are just like that. I usually tell people to give it a few times and then decide. Proud of you xoQ

The t-shirt bros caused a bit of drama last Sunday by not following protocol, but at least their search is usually VERY QUICK 😀 I still haven’t found any special or fancy BOLO’s, but I hit the mother load on some really good LRL items and a couple of items for the family ☺️ BTW, I found a Pottery Barn twin sheet set for $1.50 (with my senior discount) yesterday at my local thrift. 💃

    Great haul! I tried the stain treating formula and I accidentally bleached a pair of pink mother jeans. I was so sad. I ended up soaking the jeans in bleach and they came out off white with no bleach spots. I sold them cheaper but the buyer left me 5 star rating. Fingers crossed for your Clare V sweatshirt!

      I remember that saga with the Mother jeans. That is exactly what I did with those Z Cavaricci pants. I just soaked them in bleach and it worked! Sold those for $59. I wish I knew which items were going to react that way to the formula. I haven't figured it out yet. The formula is a miracle when It does work right tho. xo Q
