I love your reminder to donate to a local organization! I hate donating to Goodwill just so they can make money and their prices are so high for a person in need to go there. I have found a local charity that lets people in need just go in and get what they need, without paying anything!!!
Not to mention the abysmal rate GoodWill pays employees. Totally agree 💯 %
That’s awesome, I love that!! What an amazing local charity!
I agree...there are much better places to donate then goodwill 👍
My husband and I used to volunteer at a church that had a free clothing ministry in their basement. It felt so good to help people find what they needed for their family. Or to direct a fire victim to the church to help them replace clothing for their family. Ruth
I was given a tour of a goodwill warehouse years ago. Some of the work they’re doing is incredible. It isn’t just about inexpensive home goods. Most of their employees are disadvantaged or disabled. The facility had a mechanics garage in the back who would perform free services on employee vehicles like oil changes and tire rotations so these employees could have reliable transportation. Just one example that truly impressed me. There were over 100 workers in that facility whose needs were all taken into account. In rural Pennsylvania, these opportunities just don’t exist anywhere else locally.
I recently got 2 lamps from goodwill and made them over. I just painted the base gold and covered the lampshades with material to match my decor. They weren't exact matches for each other, but since they were going on nightstands, they just needed to be close. And the really perfect thing is they both had a drawstring switch, which is what I was really looking for. I spent like $18 total to make over 2 lamps!! ❤❤
Wow I love that! What great finds!!
Yes put it in your cart and then do a cart purge just before checking out! I do this to really make sure I want it, too give it a second look too check for damage and to stay within my thrifting budget!
Great idea!!
I do the same. I spend my time walking around giving myself time to see if I REALLY want something or if the impulse has worn off. Then also when I have everything together I can make those tough decisions. Maybe I find something similar I like better. Or like something more once I find other things that can go with it. I'd rather grab it, change my mind and put it back than decide I actually do want something only to find it's gone.
@@Jennilynne Absolutely! That's a great way to think about it!
I have to rant. Went to a Goodwill about an hour away from my house. They had dollar tree products for $3. I was absolutely blown away with their outrageous prices.
As always. Awesome video Whit.
Sometimes they are so crazy with their prices, I’m sorry yours is expensive! I hope you can find a cheaper place 🤞🤞
Ready for Spring!! I love opening the windows for fresh air! I also love seeing the perennials start popping through the soil and watching the wildlife return!! God's beautiful creation is amazing!!!
The thing I like most about spring is the return of the hummingbirds. We always put out two feeders and watching the little birds always makes me smile! 🥰
Same here!
U have gr8 vision..u make over plain items..to look fresh and modern! Thankyou for your cleaning tips!
Whitney, you always make my Thursdays so much better. After teaching high schoolers all day, you help rest my brain.
Aww I love that, Amber! I'm so glad I can provide you some relief with my videos!!
I have been a thrifter my entire life. More than the first half out of necessity. The second half and counting because knowing how much the most expensive local thrift store charges in comparison to even dollar general and target makes it a no brainer. All of your tips are valid and you present them in an appealing way. 😊 The only thing that I would add is always check places in the store that are good hiding places. Employees hide stuff for someone else to come purchase . Especially if the store prohibits them from shopping there on days that they work. Customers often hide things with certain colored tags and come back to purchase on the day that color is discounted the most. Clothing hanging on circular racks, along the walls or in aisles back to back and close together make good hiding spots. Inside containers and boxes, that are not popular or searched for (who can resist a reasonably priced picnic basket?)on the tip top shelf are good places. Nooks and crannies that have things like a mirror or standalone bookcase partially in front of them never fail to have a fantastic score. Sometimes things are hidden in plain sight such as in the middle of an aisle that has mostly unwanted items like random photo albums or dusty glasses and common cases that you see in a quick glance as you are walking by. If you actually go down the aisle and pay attention you will see things that kind of blend in behind and next to the boring things. Bonus tips: (1) if the item you are considering has a tag with a color not shown on the board advertising discounts it might be taken from your cart when your back is turned. (2) no matter how In expensive something is if you do not know what purpose it will serve when you purchased it 95% of the time it will become wasted money. You kind of mentioned this. It’s a lesson that takes a lot of people a long time to learn and some people never learn. Thinking things like so and do might want this and I can find a use for this and even worse this is too good of a bargain to not buy usually end with that item collecting dust at your house, being re-donated or thrown away. If you buy something like that once a week because it’s only $5 in a couple of years that’s rent, a car note or a mini vacation. Happy thrifting !
I love thrifting, especially when I see items from different eras. For me, spring is all about growing flowers. They just make me happy!
So true!
I wash stuffed animals and decorator pillows in the washer on the gentle cycle.Hasn't failed me yet.
I wash them on normal cycle including our build a bear collection 🫶
You are so true. Always look for every season. Sometimes when you least expect it, you'll find a true treasure!
Absolutely!
Love all your content!
Regarding pillows and stuffed animals- I simply wash pillows, cover and insert, in hot, soapy water in my washing machine, then dry on hot in the dryer. Some colors, like red, might not tolerate the hot water, nor would delicate fabrics, but I've had great success and feel confident in the cleanliness after.
Stuffed animals, unless they are the decor type with many materials, I wash in warm water, with sanitizing soap, then AIR tumble in the dryer. (Putting the stuffies in pillow cases to protect them, wash and dry.) Avoid high temps in the dryer, which will often melt the fur.
Ha! I'm glad to know that our goodwill isn't the only one that upcharges DT items🤦🏽♀️
Nope it’s everyone 😬🙃
I love the scarf hack. I like using thrifted pillows on my front porch. Sometimes I need to recover them, but usually I can find pillows in the color scheme of the moment.
Great tip!
SPRING! The return of purple martins and hummingbirds! All of the spring blossoms (my absolute favorites)! Celebrating Easter! It doesn’t get much better than all that!!!!! Thanks for the great video.
There was a long/narrow basket that I liked and kept seeing at my savers…it was $3 and was a little dirty but baskets that aren’t painted or dyed are really easy to wash and dry outside on a sunny day. Brought it home, cleaned it up and it’s one of my favorite baskets, totally worth the effort.
Glad you found a gem like that!! It’s the best part of thrifting!
I always look forward to your videos because I love them so very much. You never disappoint. I have to admit, I usually skip these kinds of videos unless my favorite creators put them out. Even then I tend to either like and fast forward straight through or skim watch. This is only because having grown up poor I have been thrifting, bargain shopping, trash day nabbing, garage/yard/rummage sale shopping, curb side finding, auction going and so on since I was a very little girl. I am grateful for all that I learned from my family members in that regard. I have to say I have seen so many videos about thrifting now but I feel like yours covered so much and it really kept my interest. It was packed full of great information. Excellent job Whitney! 🎉⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👏🏼
I love spring for all sorts of reasons. Opening the windows, hummingbirds returning, flowers blooming, warmer weather to sit on the porch 😊
Yes to the open windows! That’s the BEST 🪟
Happy Easter!✝️ I love Spring because of the warmer, but not hot weather! I’m most looking forward to more cookouts with family and time spent outdoors!
Thank you for this! I’ve been trying to get into thrifting, but I always walk away disappointed lol. The thing I’m most looking forward to is the warmer weather! I’m tired of being cold 😂😂
Thank you for this. I usually don’t watch the thrifting videos because I get frustrated that I can’t get the same or similar items at my thrift stores.This was extremely helpful & hopefully it will improve my “thrifting game “.😊
You are so welcome! I totally get that, happy to hear this style of video is helpful!
I so loved this video Whit! I’ve been thrifting and going to garage sales all my life! I love the hunt too! Lol I’ve been lucky most of the time. Your tips are spot on! Thanks for taking us along! ❤👍😊
I’m so ready for nice weather!! I miss wearing my sandals and putting my feet in the sand😄 I love the summer season the sun is good for your body!!!😂❤Great video!
Me too!! I’m 10000% a sandals girl, can’t wait!
@@Whiskeyandwhitit can’t come soon enough 😂
Yes I love thrifting, I love to find canvas prints big and small to redo into something for my decor
Thanks for your positive energy and great advice. I’m a teacher and just had spring break (always looking forward to spring lol) I cleaned out the basement and took 2 trips to goodwill with donations. Such a good feeling ( like shedding 5 lbs 😂) ❤
You go girl!! 📦 that always feels so good!! 👏🏼
Your comment about expectations changes everything! Thank you 🤯 and I am looking forward to warmer weather so we can play outside without jackets!! Hurry up Spring! 🌸
I’m looking forward to warm weather so I can enjoy being outside!
Same here! I’m so ready for warmer temps!!

I like Spring because it thrills my soul to see the little flowers peeking through the ground and the shrubs and trees budding out.
Loved this video. My friend and I have been thrifting more than 40 years. When we don't find anything we just laugh and say look how much money we saved. Another thing to consider is if they have discounts-seniors. Certain stores have certain days. Also on my fridge is the sequence of colors that the store reduces their prices on. When my niece used to go with me she would ask what something was or what it was used for. I would tell her to think more along the lines of what it could become. Wear comfortable shoes and make a day of it.
Absolutely! All great tips’
My mom passed away in Nov. She was well known in the community for her baking skills. I thrifted her house & thrift stores for picture frames, cooking items. So many people commented on how loveky the display tables were. Thabks for the ideas! 😊
I love spring for the warmer weather it’s not too hot and not too cold to enjoy being outside.
Yes! One of my favorite seasons ☀️
F
Great video Whitney! I would add one helpful bit of input my husband adds when we go out thrifting/antique shopping, he will ask " now were are we going to put that?". Otherwise I would have a cart full, and he' not being domineering! It's a good point to think about when thrifting, esp. larger pieces.
Great tips! I am so ready for spring, planting flowers and watching the plants that are coming up! We also love being out by the pool, riding SXS and horses. Spring and fall are my favorites.
I’m looking forward to enjoying these Spring days that bring out the flowers and sun. Also it’s the start of my spring cleaning…a nice reset.
Wonderful! Happy cleaning 💕✨
I love going into the thrift stores but don’t usually come out with much. And also I LOVE spring time because of the weather. It is PERFECT!!
I like spring because I can now wall outside and for all the colors. Being in Nebraska we can't plant til May so when things bloom I am more appreciative because we don't have a lot of months to enjoy it.
You gave a lot of suggestions and ideas. Thanks for all you do!!
I love what you said about not expecting too much. I went to this little thrift store in a small town not expecting to find anything but I found the best pieces. Left with a bag full and only $8 it was half off day and I couldn’t believe what I scored. Thank you for cleaning tips perfect timing for me. ❤❤❤
Oh wow! That’s so awesome, glad you scored!
Wow! What a great list of tips! I really think those will help with thrifting burnout! On another note, I am so glad Spring is in the air! More sunshine and warmer temps are what I look forward to most after a cold, dark winter!
I haven't been thrifting in ages. This video inspired me to get back out there! Looking forward to spring and an end to all these random snowstorms!
I am looking forward to warm days and flowers this season 🎉
Such great tips. I always feel like I have to buy something when I go so I don't waste the trip. Now I know it's ok not to buy anything. I'm so looking forward to more day light at night this spring.
Always a pleasure to watching your thifting hacks whit ❤️🙌. I like Spring 🌸🌺🌾🌿 cause I love to see all my flowers -I love the colors every spring peeking the ground and playing peek-A-Boo 🌸🌺🌾🌼
I really enjoyed your tips and suggestions for thrifting. Thanks for sharing them. I love watching Spring slowly push out winter. Right now the crocuses are out and my lawn is slowly turning green and losing the brown. I love watching for those little signs like the buds on my cherry tree. And thanks for your bright cheery smile.
Such a fun video!! I don’t get to go thrifting too often, but when I do, I always enjoy it!! My favorite tip was the manifestation and mantra of saying “what is meant to be will be mine”. I’m going to start using that but in all aspects of life!!
Great video!! Thank you!!❤❤
I’m so happy to read that!! Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!
Good Morning Whitney, You are always full of good ideas on thrifting! I love to thrift but many times I am overwhelmed. You always break it down and make things easier. ☔I am looking forward to warmer weather here in the Midwest.
In spring I look forward to refreshing and cleaning indoors and out. That refresh is invigorating.
Absolutely! That will be amazing!
Thrift stores are usually much cheaper. Both stores are definitely different. Location is key. You are right. That jug was cool!! The baskets are good and even better when painted. I love thrift stores you can find really cool things. And the furniture you can get is sooooo beautiful. Beautiful solid wood at a very, very low price.
So true! So many gems to find!!
My favorite thing about spring is working in my garden I can't wait to dig in the dirt!
Love that!
I’m looking forward to moderate spring weather so I can resume outdoor walking.
Love that!
Looking forward this spring to finally seeing the flowers of all the bulbs I planted in November!
Ooo yes! I can’t wait for my peonies to bloom 🌸
I love watching the trees and grass start to green again .
I've been thinking of thrifting and your video helped me decide . Thank u !
I'm so glad the timing of this video was great for you!! ✨💕
Love your videos Whitney! I am excited for spring break starting today...my son has some time out of school and we are going to pick out some flowers to plant
Have fun! ☀️🌷✨
What great tips! I love the idea of the pinterest boards, I don't know why I havent thought of that before. I am excited for spring so I can enjoy sitting outside before the heat rolls in... I also love to look at all the trees finally fill in after winter!
The thing about spring that I am most looking forward to is sitting on my back porch in the morning having my tea and watching the birds!! And my flip flops to!! LOL
TFS these tips Whitney! That thrift shop looks tremendous. I really enjoy doing the vases over especially love the way you do yours textured and splattered ❤ And those lightbulbs are a game changer with thrifted lamps
I absolutely love your sweater!! I need one!! Thank you so much this video!! Muchly needed! And Spring!! Hmm, I just like seeing everything renewing itself. Like the leaves on the trees and the flowers blooming. The birds are so happy tweeting so early in the morning.
Thank you! Here is the link: amzn.to/3U0IrCl 💕✨☀️
I often buy throw pillows at thrift stores. I wash them in the washing machine and dry them either outside or in the dryer.
I am looking forward to the spring flowers, especially the lilac. The warmer and longer days are great, too. Thanks a bunch for your videos. I always learn so much from you.

I love love love this video!! My favorite is 1 in 1 out rule and especially looking for women's shelters and schools to donate to!! And what is meant for me will be.

Thank you for all you do for us ❤️
And I hope to see more thrifting videos. 😉
Thanks Whit. I will be heading to the thrift store to look for some frames for a project I have in mind. Definitely looking forward to the warmer weather of spring.
I am looking forward to spring because I like to be able to go outside without freezing.
Preach! 🙌🏼😬
I love spring just because the weather gets better!
✨💕☀️🌷
This was a great video. I’m new and overwhelmed by everything and this was perfect timing for this video. I’m looking forward to spring and getting my container garden started.
I’m looking forward to longer days, sandals and just knowing I’m closer to summer break from school!😊 love your videos. Once I get my house cleaned out, I need to start thrifting
Yay! Thank you! And yay for summer break!
I can't wait for spring so I can get out into the gardens and enjoy the warmer weather! Plus I have a tone of projects that needs spray paint. Much easier when the weather is nicer. Thank you for the great Videos!
