How to Get a Deal at the Thrift Stores & Junk Sales

Video Transcript

" Hello! My name is Denise Robinson, and on behalf of expertvillage.com, I’m here to talk about junking with the thrift shop and yard sale in mind. In this segment, we’re going to talk about how to find a bargain and how to haggle. Like I said before, thrift shops have set prices so you can’t really haggle there and talk your way down into a cheaper price, but you can find bargains there. It depends on what you’re looking for. How to find a bargain is strictly up to you. If you have one of those items that you just have to have and you don’t mind paying a little bit more than what you expected, then it’s a bargain to you. But if you are looking for a true bargain you want to make sure that that’s the item that you want and you’re willing to spend that kind of money. On the other hand, haggle, it’s more for the yard sale, because you talk with the person who’s selling their things and go back and forth, back and forth. I’ll give you 50 cents, no I’ll give you 25, I’ll give you 10 cents. You never know, but you go back and forth, back and forth until you get what you want. Don’t give up because they want to get rid of their stuff, and you want to get it. "
