Adventures in thrifting income from the pay per pound Goodwill - Day 27.
It was SUPER packed when I walked in today, not at all what I was expecting. On prior Fridays it was actually much quieter, so I was thinking today would be the same. Nope. I couldn't even get a cart at the start and the line to checkout was halfway down the store at one point.
Today is April 13th and it is day 27. Let's see what I found this Friday.
Nothing special. Just some low volume stuff that will sell in time. I told ya it was really crowded today!
Here's the stuff I am keeping:
Just some stuff for the kids. They are set for birthdays now!
Oh, and a lid for @fullcoverbetting. (check out a recent post of his and look in the comments for a racy lid pic!)
The best thing here is probably the Billboard top 40 karaoke set. But I found some NERF ammo!
That FLY stuff is for a pentop computer. I had never heard of such a thing.
Clockwise, from top left.
EVS racing collar
Bread maker pan and paddle
Cole Haan shoe tree
Rough bowling shoes - will need a good clean
This was pretty cool. It is a VEX Robotics Spider thing. It's missing a few parts, most importantly the remote control. But I figured what is there is worth something. The set sells for $60 when new.
Sales!
One single sale today. One of those headlights from way back on day 1 or 2.
Shipping price was a bastard on this, more than I expected. Still made some profit though.
Day 27 Totals
Total Spent Today: $10.59
Running Total Spent: $405.05
Total Listed Price Today: $183.26
Running Total Listed Price: $5284.74
Total Sales: $1905.38
Total Profit: $1136.81
As always, tomorrow is a new day and a new thrift!
Does the nerf ammo match the guns you've found?
It's the MEGA size ammo, it didn't fit the first gun I checked but there are a lot now and I didn't check any more.
I hate that when headlights cost a lot of money to ship...................@getonthetrain .........
I Really like this post of what you are getting at Goodwill everyday. Keep doing it even after the 30 days
I dunno, it takes commitment to go every single day. Other things have been neglected to do this experiment.
That's definitely some nice part time income you're making for a little side work. And for some a full time living in some parts of the world !!
If only the cost of living here was like those parts of the world too!
I missed your explanation on the pot lids. Are you keeping these for yourself or because there's a decent market for them?
They sell for about $9 each, give or take. But I have been saving them up to create sets.
Good thing your wife is cool with this!
A new post is up for your viewing pleasure.
I checked it out!
Always fun to start the day with some fresh lids!
Did you cary all of this? Or did you manage to get a cart?
I carried it for a bit, then got a cart halfway through the shopping.
I get my kids toys from the goodwill for presents. They don’t seem to care.
Yeah, especially young ones like mine (1 and almost 3)

Probably not the best way to go about it here on Steemit.
I noticed that you delegated some SP to bid bots. If you also like to earn a nice return on your investment in a different way, I can make you a proposal. Please let me know if you're interested?
