5 Thrift Stops, 1 Winner: Which Had the Best Vintage & Antiques?

Video Description

You won’t believe which thrift store surprised us the most… and the treasures we almost left behind. 🔴 George's Lymphoma GoFundMe: https://bit.ly/4k0WUIC If one thrift store is fun, imagine a whole town full of them. We're thrifting our way through Everett, Washington today—hitting two Goodwills, a St. Vincent de Paul, a Value Village, and a local hidden gem to see who comes out on top for vintage and antique deals. First up: Luma Northwest. It's sale day, and the shelves are stocked with estate pieces—right from a collector’s sale we visited. Think gilded Czech tea sets, Fenton hobnail, Royal Albert trays, and a dreamy blue antique oil lamp that had us hesitating. The prices? Tempting. The nostalgia? Off the charts. Next, we breeze through St. Vincent de Paul before it closes. This quick stop turns into a goldmine: a Stanley “big dumb cup,” a 40-year-old Anchor-Hocking vase priced like it’s still the 1980s, and a hilariously charming owl that’s so bad—it’s good. We also talk about what we leave behind and why. At Value Village, it’s game on again. This shop rarely lets us down, and today is no different: 1960s snowflake tumblers, a Meiji Period Japanese plate, and a vintage football game with a local tie-in. We show you what we grab, what we walk away from, and how we decide what’s worth it for our collectors. Downtown Goodwill is small but mighty. Missing parts? We take a gamble and track down the rest across town. You'll see how we make decisions in real-time—and why it's not just about the price tag. Finally, we hit the big Goodwill near Everett Mall. It’s late in the day, but will there be anything left? Let’s just say we get déjà vu when we find long-lost mates from earlier in the day. And yes, we hunt down that one missing saucer. So, which store wins? The one with the half-off treasures? The underdog downtown Goodwill? Or the store with the vintage jackpot at the very end? You’ll have to watch and see. This one’s for the true collectors, the nostalgia lovers, and anyone who knows that thrifting is more than a hobby—it’s a treasure hunt with heart. 👉 Remember to like, comment, and subscribe for more antique & vintage adventures across the country! ———————————————————— ☀️ Do you want more info about an item you own?
