So, here's the Goodwill story... My little sister is turning 10 in a few weeks, and all she has been asking for is ANOTHER American Girl doll. Well, Saturday when we went to Somerset, we went into the Goodwill and found TWO American Girl dolls. She was going crazy. They were $25 each. So I bought them both, with plans of reselling them, but Mattie went nuts and cried and said I had to give them to her! So she ended up getting them both 2 weeks before her birthday. I was a little upset because that would've been some nice profit to put towards my trip in September! (I'm going to Michigan with some senior citizens! Details soon!) But I'm glad I made her happy.
At the Goodwill outlet, we spent $49 on 77 pounds of items! I got TONS of Vera Bradley, Lucky Brand purses, Scrabble Tiles, and all kinds of other treasures!
Here's me, mom, and Mattie all packed up and ready to go to the zoo! Notice Mattie holding the two American Girl dolls...
It wasn't a very large zoo. It had more farm animals than exotic animals. Which was kindly weird.. But it was still a great trip!
Here's a few of my favorite pics! I love having an Iphone!
But anyways! On to the sales update!
I sold 13 items this week.
Total sales before fees: $ 170.65
No negative feedbacks.
No returns.
Pretty awesome week! I need to get my sales amount up to about $500 a week since I'm fixing to start making car payments, and I now have a phone bill!
I sold these black cowboy boots for $11 +shipping. Paid $1.
I sold another lot of A Beka books for $40 +shipping.
I sold these pinecone shower curtain hooks for $13.45 +shipping. Paid $1 at Goodwill.
I sold this Wilton Dora cakepan for $8.95 +shipping. I can't remember what I paid for it.. Probably a dollar?
Sorry for the long sales update everyone! I hope you enjoyed reading! Have a great week!

great sales! and thats super nice giving those to your sister....depending on the doll I have a hard time getting over $50 for some. So maybe it was minimal loss LOL. I've been guilty of giving away inventory to make someone happy; but then its a great feeling to know you get to bless someone. Nice on the Dora Wilton....I can't get them to sell individually. :D
ReplyDeleteOne doll was a girl of he year and the other was a just like me? doll. I'm happy giving them to her though :) She's enjoyed playing with them!
DeleteI never seem to find any of the Wilton pans, and if I do, they're priced at $8 at Goodwill! I never seem to have trouble selling them though!
Thanks for reading!

You are SO lucky to have that AMAZING Goodwill Outlet by the pound store! We have one here (Central Florida) but it only has shoes (crappy ones), purses/belts/ties (again crappy ones) and clothes (I've found some great finds which I am thankful for) but wow, hearing the load you recently got!!! AWESOME! Happy selling!
ReplyDeleteIt is a great outlet! We paid $0.59 a pound and got shoes, purses, toys, games, computer software, electronics, and so so much more! We lived a little over 2 hours away from it, but it's definitely worth the trip down there!!

Thanks for sharing your trip and weekly sales. It was so nice of you to give your little sister those dolls. But I think it would've been okay if you set her up on a payment plan to at least pay you for the cost of them, as it sounds like she is an avid "collector".
ReplyDeleteAlso, if you have a return, does the buyer pay the shipping fee to send it back?
Again, thanks for sharing.
You're welcome! If you have a buyer ask for a return, they must pay the return shipping.

I can't believe you find Lucky and Vera at the outlet store - I always think of those as the last place stop for stuff no one wants. Looks like you had a great week!
ReplyDeleteI also found some authentic Coach! It was nuts!
