I used to love donating to one of my local big box thrift stores. When I donated enough, they would give out 30% coupons which I would use to head right into the store and find things to flip. That is, until the day that I learned they were throwing most of my donations straight …
Did you know that Goodwill sells on eBay? Of course, you did, that’s why you’re here. It’s common knowledge that people buy items from thrift stores and resell them on eBay. In fact, we have been doing so for more than 5 years and had over a quarter of a million dollars in “side-hustle” sales …
My wife and I try to do a major donation run every couple of months. We’re not quite Marie Kondo but we do our best to keep our house simple and uncluttered (although it doesn’t help that we’re always thrifting). During one of our latest purchases my wife and I debated for quite a while …
Arbitrage and flipping products for profit entail finding undervalued items to sell them at a reasonable price. My wife and I went crazy when we first discovered a Goodwill Outlet near us where we could buy a huge amount of clothing by the pound (as well as other goods). However, what’s better than paying for …
My wife and I are terrible at keeping track of gift cards. For some reason, we always tick them “somewhere safe” and then forget about them. This is especially true for prepaid Visa cards. If I have an IHOP gift card I think of it when I see IHOP. Nothing jogs my memory about Visa. …

Mystery boxes have always been exciting to me. The excitement of something choosing random (possibly extremely valuable) items and mailing them to me is just about the same as discovering a treasure chest. Or a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re going to get. I was super excited a month ago to learn …
The first time I went to the Goodwill Outlet I was over the moon. The idea of paying $.99 per pound for anything I could find sounded simply too good to be true. I scratched my way to the front of dozens of bins and soon filled my cart. Unfortunately, I only had 60lbs of …
When it comes to thrift stores, not much can compare to the Goodwill Outlets. For both the good and the bad (disgusting, actually). The thrill of finding amazing things for dirt cheap, the competition with a dozen other bargain-crazy people, and the potential to flip your finds for a healthy profit. But even if you’re …
If you’re looking for great thrift shop deals but can’t find any good options in your area or if you’ve searched the ones in your area enough times and would like something new, you may want to consider visiting an online thrift store. Even though there are a dozen thrift stores within an hour of …
