Thrifting At The LARGEST Thrift Store! (3 STORIES!)

Рет қаралды 18,023

Күн бұрын

Today I visited the largest thrift store in Chicago to try and find some stuff to flip online for a profit. This store was absolutely massive and featured 3 whole stories that were packed with 1000s of items. I hope you enjoy this thrifting haul!

I worked at a Salvation Army thrift store for a short time. Any stained or damaged clothing never made it to the floor. I’m very surprised to see a high price tags on those items.

Carhartt coats are not universally gold. I have one that I only wore in the coldest Milwaukee weather, usually too warm. After a few years in Florida I thought, why do I still have this? Good money... Oddly not so. Something about the model made it so I might as well pack it away and wait for a winter trip home.

@nonsuchned94 5 ай бұрын

Whoops - had to edit. Not all Carhartts are equal - but I don't know why. I really think that coat is the best I've ever had... but has no value.

6 bucks on an item that’ll sell the same day I put it up. Under 2 mins of work. Bread and butter items like that is what makes up the majority of sales. Find 25 items like this at a $6 profit it’s $150. Not to mention most business’ make under a 20% profit margin per item so a 50% one isn’t bad.

@theresellinghusband 5 ай бұрын

I was gonna say the same thing but I know everyone has a different business strategy. I've never seen anyone say $6 profit is good or bread and butter but again everyone is different.

@kgb4187 5 ай бұрын

Not a good profit margin for someone like you who does it for a hobby, but more than acceptable for a full time seller.

@theresellinghusband 5 ай бұрын

@kgb4187 Ahahahahaha I literally quit my 16 year career to be a full-time Reseller 3 years ago. So I don't think your comment is very accurate especially because you don't know me LOL. The only difference is when I quit I paid off 90% of our bills with my 401k and 457b that I put into all those years and we've been in our house for over 20 years and it's paid off. Our monthly bills are less than 1k and my Wife makes more than that per week but that doesn't mean this is a Hobby to me nor do I treat it that way.
