Morning, guys.
Can't see me a minute.
I'm trying to make a gap.
Trying to make a gap to put you and my donations.
We are absolutely swamped with donations.
So I've got to work like a trojan now.
And smash these donations out.
Oh my God, what's this now?
You can't see me because you're on the worktop, you are.
Wait a minute.
Let me just check this out.
Have you got my other screen with me today?
Because I can't see if somebody else is sending me a message about, are you taking 10 million donations?
If you could, possibly hang on to stuff for two weeks so you would appreciate it.
That doesn't include our businesses and our charities that we work with.
That's people's.
That's everybody else.
So I've got some nice stuff in.
Always nice stuff, as you know.
Beautiful parmen.
He's up for 70.
I ain't going to go under that on him.
He's like brand new.
Beautiful shoes in.
Nice stuff.
Beautiful stuff again, guys.
They come out the van.
I didn't even know we had them.
I think we had them originally, so cardboard tables, but then we had pull-up ones then.
I didn't even know we had them in the van.
She's going to be up for 40, so she'd be 20.
She's quite well looked after.
This is up for 25.
On offer, we've got some nice frillies.
Frillies with tags.
Just as we turn up now, we're a pile of ming.
Ming in a bag.
I was like, no, I'm not taking it.
I could see the orange stains on it before I even started from the baby food.
I was like, no.
No.
Yes, so the pantry, coronavirus volunteers, charity, complained to the police that we were damaging their business.
So I then showed them all of the five to six years of damage that they have done to our not-for-profit business out of jealousy.
Look at that.
Oh, my God.
Look at that.
That's giving George and Bungo vibes.
I love it.
And then they went.
They went.
Beautiful bag.
Don't forget we're on 75.
I keep forgetting we're on 75.
Look at that all black jumper.
Stunning.
Look at this.
Look at that.
Stun.
Stun.
Everybody's looking at this bag.
It is £25 online.
That's why it's up for 12 and it's brand new with tags.
So there we are.
I'm not going to be putting the summer weight away because we're all full of bags for a fiver.
Look at that.
Got a christening coming up or a little wedding.
Beautiful.
Stunning.
Stun hun.
Who says that?
I think it's a mixture.
I think that's a mixture of one of the Welsh five and then the other one.
It's got the twins.
Have you seen her?
I quite like her.
She's had a bad.
She's had a bad press.
I've had her too.
This is lovely.
We had a stitch blanket like this that was stolen out the window.
And Rob says he's got CCTV.
It was taken out of the window.
He's got the CCTV of it being passed out the front.
And he also has the flag going as well.
The flag was folded up for sale.
It wasn't, you know, displayed.
My swan crocheted tablecloth plant display thing is still here.
They're still here.
I thought they'd have gone by now.
I like them.
Oh, and him.
We've got a bit of a vintage theme going on here.
I'm not even going to show you what's out the back, right?
I'm going to show you because I don't even want to go out the back.
He's cute.
It's another nice one.
Did he get priced?
Yes, he did.
Yes, he did get priced.
I don't have to put him in the pram.
Oh, winter's here, look.
Winter is coming.
Time just... Oh, I think he's going to spoil it with our pram.
Lots of trouble.
Let me just sit him over there.
Because he's a lovely bird, he is.
He's really nice.
Rug.
Fiverr.
Bouncers.
Fiverr.
They breed.
I got two in here.
I don't need 15 by tomorrow.
Oh, that's... Oh.
Julie, they're the baskets I got you.
I don't know if they'll be deep enough.
That one might.
They're one of your baby dogs.
Oh, and I need somebody tall because I can't get up on a chair today.
Put them up there for me.
Beautiful coat.
I love that coat.
Proper like autumn green.
Isn't it?
A bit of vintage make-up in there.
A bit of Lego swords are in.
We had vintage Coca-Cola but I can't remember where I put it.
That's about... Don't forget, clothes are on.
Fill a bag for Fiverr, adult ones.
Fill a bag for Fiverr, childrens.
Tell all your friends, right.
Right, we got bags and bags, guys.
Bags and bags and bags and bags today.
I'm going to try and get you up because I checked in last night to see how much we were on.
And I haven't done it for a little bit since we cashed out, I don't think.
And me is bad.
I need an injection now.
And we're on 120 already.
So, and it's only like the third or the fourth.
Here we are.
I need this because this is where I stand doing.
Here we
are.
Let's get you in here.
Oh, we're going to have to go on battery as well.
We're going to have to go on battery.
There you are, you're on a juke tuck.
Right, what's going on here?
My other screen.
Oh, we didn't get a sign.
We were going to put a sign there when we haven't done it.
There we were putting nappies when we used to try and remind people what we do, what we get up to.
What we're all about.
The aim of the game.
I've got tons, guys.
Absolute tons.
I don't know when I got started.
And then a guy came in and he was like, oh, have you got room?
I said, well, if you can balance that bag over there, I've got room.
It's all nice stuff, lovely baby stuff, clean.
The first lot that was going to come in was like, I was like, no.
You know, I don't mind washing things, but not when it's stained and stuff.
Because you're just not going to get it out, guys.
Right, you're just not going to get the stains out.
So I think we're currently on 1.6 million views.
So let's go for it today.
I want to try and get the toys done, at least.
That pram is lovely for 70.
I'm not going to go under that, guys, because it's like brand new.
It's got rain covers.
It's lovely.
So we sell out prams and all a bit too cheap anyway.
To be honest.
I had a good sleep, but I'm still exhausted.
Exhausted I am.
Donation fatigue I got.
A few of these I got.
Which one is this?
What's the green one then?
They will go to the boy men.
I'm sure the boy men will buy those.
Maybe in here now.
Oh, somebody remind Daniel.
Because I can't do it now I'm on the live.
Somebody remind him, one of our volunteers.
The bags upstairs.
We've got customers that will come in today for the filler bag for a fiver upstairs.
So the pound shop needs to be open.
Because he's probably not watching my video.
Probably still eating his breakfast.
The bags are on.
Four bags for 15.
Reminding that.
Especially if it's our regulars.
What is this?
Oh my god.
It doesn't seem to have a head.
What does it appear to have a head?
To infinity and beyond.
I thought it was a plate set.
It doesn't seem to have a head yet.
Is there anything that is supposed to be with this?
A Batman car.
Loads of...
Something like this.
There's a spider on him.
We had loads of money spiders in my house last night.
There must have been an egg sack.
Hatched all over me.
I was like, oh no.
Trying not to think about it too much.
A Nerf magazine.
Tons of Nerf guns in.
I just think it's that...
Age group now are not interested in Nerf guns.
Oh that's a Fortnite one.
So I bet that's the one with the Fortnite Nerf.
Haven't it?
Yeah, it's on that one I think.
Oh my god.
Why is it missing wheels?
Have they just come off?
Because I didn't see that the first time.
I didn't put him up there because he was missing two wheels a minute.
I didn't see that earlier.
Maybe it was where I chucked him over into the...
What's that?
Is that somebody trying to run off my plan?
Because I've belted it to the chair leg.
On a table.
Belted it to a table and a chair.
Ready for when the bender comes and tries to nick it.
And you go...
And then you crash off and veer off into something.
Dragging a table behind him.
That's like that.
Balls.
Balls.
Everywhere.
I'm going to put these here because they're going to roll off wherever I put them.
Can't people be considerate and make a square ball?
Think about these people who work in second hand shops.
Sammy, are you still online or have you gone?
I found one of these in your shop.
Marked up for £4, no ball.
Just saying.
Oh no, don't have it on.
I'll let you have it on.
No, we can do it right.
Right, that's done.
Nice crickets set.
Look at that.
Somebody's cling-filled them up ready for me.
Brilliant.
Thank you so much mum.
Wherever did that.
Got some bubbles but I think they've been used.
Probably 50p then.
My food for the party.
The basket is empty because I had two little girls turn up.
So I might have to start another one today now.
They turned up and they had two kids between them.
So they couldn't make up their minds which one to have.
So I've turned up a lot.
So I think that's going to be my three for a pound basket this week.
So we are Risca and Pontypool.
Today.
Oh look, look.
Somebody's organised.
Thank you mum.
That's what we want.
You don't realise how much of a help that is to us.
When things are all ready to rock and roll.
See I've nearly now cleared this bit by her.
Because it's sorted in the bags already.
If somebody comes in and says I've got a Nerf gun.
I've got millions of them.
Super Mario.
An incredible guy.
Just like you.
Mario.
He'll be like a three for a pound when he can come in there.
What's this?
I've got a Spiderman in a box.
Oh I've got another vintage Coca-Cola.
Lovely.
And then the rest is figures.
Which I can't just take out.
But there we are.
A skateboard.
A Mickey Mouse face.
No need to wash.
Right.
Might get a skateboard out next.
Because they go really well with skateboard.
I've got children's books there.
I'll pop them into there in a minute.
Don't forget no launchers.
We're doing five or six items.
I've got five bags.
You see.
Five bags of toys.
And we make the money don't we on the boy main toys.
I feel like a breath as well.
I don't know why.
I feel like a breath today.
Not sick.
Not firing on all cylinders yet.
But I've lost my tablets.
They've come down somewhere.
I think they're in the car.
The car's full.
As usual.
I was hoping it was going to come in the shower.
But it's not.
So I've got to try and get my tablets out.
Egg caps are nice.
Come on.
I've had egg caps.
Done.
Right.
Okay.
What have we got here?
It had a ball.
The ball ran off.
Yes I understand your problem.
We need egg caps to put them on.
I know.
I'm struggling.
We need square balls.
Something's up there.
These are a bit grubby.
These are not too bad.
They're dusty.
They've been in a shed.
I don't know what this is because it has no head.
Somebody Google him and send me a picture of what he's supposed to look like.
This giant buzz.
A child probably won't have it like that.
But a boy might as well.
I don't know what's happening with one now.
Guys, I've been looking here and all the way out there.
It's just dry.
I'm annoyed with the person who stole the stuff from here.
Because they know they're on my page.
They know I've caught them.
And they're still trying to get away with it.
Phew!
I'm going to have to work.
It was up quite early.
I'm supposed to be reviewing my ball or something.
And the hex bug got stolen.
And broken as well.
I think no matter what happens guys we're going to have to just stand up there when we go customers.
Just double check what's going on.
Because we've had a lot of stuff.
We've had stuff move around as well.
I feel so out of breath this morning.
Three for a pound isn't it?
What's this thing?
One of those jittery things is it?
To the customers that came out yesterday.
The weather was awful.
It was absolutely dreadful.
Everybody seemed to sort of come out straight away.
As if they were waiting for a school plan.
To come in to get what they wanted.
And they seemed to be collectors.
Because it was records and brass.
You know, we can't blame people.
It was dreadful.
Oh no.
Something is singing to me.
It's a nice little carpet.
Need another shot guys.
Black wood landlord about to put another one of his shops up.
Another one that we were in.
He's lost another tenant.
What is making that noise?
I love him.
Another one Sammy.
You've got one of these.
In your window in Pontypool.
And it's up for like mega bucks.
I don't know if I've missed the party on them ones or what.
But I love them.
I don't want to check the price on that one.
Oh my god.
What is making that noise?
Oh it's in the basket.
In the basket.
Thank god for that.
Yeah, I mean pillow pets.
I know they were quite collectible.
I don't know how collectible they are.
But you've got it for mega bucks.
I'm going to put mine up for eight.
Hopefully it will go for four less.
Just because you put yours up for mega bucks.
I don't know.
I'm going to have to research him later.
I'm going to put him on my research later pile.
Oh I love him.
He's amazing.
I think it's a ladybird one you've got.
I can't remember what price is on it.
But it was mega.
Where is the sellotape now?
Four mega bucks.
Loads of clothes in the pawn shop in Pontypool guys.
Absolutely really nice ones.
Fill a bag for a fiver.
Four carrier bags for fifteen pound.
You won't get clothes that cheap anywhere else.
I even had resellers going up there and bringing stuff down saying to me you can get more for this.
I'm like I haven't got room to get more for it.
I don't want more for it.
I want it gone.
They're like well what if I bring them all down and just no.
I want them gone.
Get the figures in the cupboard.
Ready for the boy mode.
One of these babies.
Have you ever read this one before?
Or was it the Coco Melon baby?
Everybody was after that.
I like it when they come in and say I can get that for two pound fifteen.
But I don't know.
We'll go and get it in Banada then.
My highlight of the day that is when they say things like that.
I can get that for two pound fifteen.
We'll go and get it in Banada for two pound fifteen.
My business woman.
What a sap.
Is he a jelly cat?
No he's a fluffy bunny though.
He's cute.
Oh my Star Wars pencil case with tags.
Lovely stuff in here.
I think he's going to need a wipe over though that one.
Another Nerf.
They used to be really collectible.
They're not now.
I think the teenagers of today are not interested in Nerf guns.
I think they're growing up too quick.
Getting so many in.
So we're going to have figure cabinets down here.
Because the figure cabinets always go well.
It will be full now before I take any from your shop Tommy.
Give them a follow.
I've had a few customers at the front.
None in yet as such.
Who's he?
Is he a collectible one?
I've never seen him before.
Oh no stop.
Wish I had known more.
Maybe people are getting rid of him.
I don't know.
If we've got any plastic knives that come in we're probably not selling.
We'll probably just take them off.
We won't even sell them to the resellers.
Put them in a bag and I'll have a look at them.
Like we do with all the knives and the sharp objects.
I have a think.
I think it's a Star Wars one.
I think it's a rip off one.
That one.
So yep there's still brilliant clothes up in the pound shop guys.
So I'll go up there.
Get yourself a pile.
I've got some Nicotrinas but I haven't seen them yet.
Who's he?
I can't remember.
I can't remember who he is.
Piers Hardy group.
Let's see.
I'm talking friends.
I recognise him but I don't recognise the character but I can't think of the name.
This one will be collectible I expect.
Yes a lovely pram that is.
Really good condition.
Best one we got I think.
We've got two good ones downstairs.
I'm going to dig them out for some point.
I'm going to get loads of these in.
Those are these crocodiles.
I'll never buy these again.
I'm going to get loads of them.
These don't need more of a wipe I think.
I haven't got any wet ones today.
In my cloth.
Hopefully they've been in an attic or shed or something.
Still good to go isn't it?
Just need a wipe over.
I'm pleased because I've still got figures which are time consuming but I've probably smashed those bags by now.
Oh I've still got that big one up there.
That's one of the figures as well.
What happened then?
All my lights went off.
This
is to do with the wind.
Oh no I'm back on.
Somebody flicking my switch back today.
So Mia I've got nothing on.
Only the lights on my phone.
The card machine is charged so that's not even on.
This is a jelly cat.
No.
He's a Wilco knock off.
Vintage.
Vintage Wilco now.
Sad isn't it?
Sad all these shops go in.
Poor sales are down by 9%.
But that could be because people are buying electric cars and I don't think they've delivered their electric car as well yet have they?
Are they Land Rover or are they Volkswagen?
I can't remember as well.
Portion Volkswagen.
H&M is up.
Their sales have gone up by a small percentage.
But Costa is not going to survive I don't think.
The only reason Starbucks is surviving is because if they pay a sister company
and they actually borrow the name and the branding of this company in Switzerland or somewhere.
That's how they get away with not paying as much tax.
Because all they're doing is renting the signage and the trademark and the rest of it.
Which is a bit naughty isn't it?
It's very naughty.
These are a bit broke so we'll just put these up for credit.
This one for a bit.
A little basket in here for all my little bits of tickets.
I'll just stick it in there.
Yeah so that didn't go well for the pantry did it?
But then what do you expect?
The trouble is you go cry into the police and you say oh she's done that, she's done that and then they're like well what have they done to you?
This is what they've done to me.
Awful isn't it?
And then they're like well what do you expect isn't it?
They're fully aware of what goes on with these charities.
They know who these charities are.
Because they've already been there.
When they start they argue with themselves.
So now they've teamed up to try and take us down.
Which is hilarious.
Right that's a cheap one.
These are covered ones they are right.
Take them out.
Hilarious.
Trying to take me down.
Which hasn't worked out very well.
Because two of them have lost their charity registrations in the process.
Two of them are on mornings.
But we are scrutinised.
We are scrutinised by the charities as we speak.
And the one down here, oh the kids are awful.
We had problems with a daughter when we first started in Big Miska.
That Jodie, we had problems with her.
Wouldn't leave us alone.
If you could have just ignored us.
And got on with what you are doing.
But we were such a threat.
They needed to try and take us down there and there.
We had problems with a daughter, she was awful.
And then the older son screaming at us on the barn.
Hi Caroline, how are you doing?
You alright?
I hope that doll ain't haunting your house.
You've got a couple of them now.
Don't ring me, mind if they haunt your house.
Ring the Ghostbusters.
What is this thing then?
Mobile Stadium Hot Wheels.
Battle Anyway.
Oh no it's not Hot Wheels.
I think it's Beyblades.
Is it like a Beyblade thing?
What's that guys?
I don't know if you store battle anywhere.
I don't know what it is.
I think you use these things in there don't you?
Put it in the boy man pile.
Yeah, so then the older son was screaming at me one day on the lane.
Then the middle son was screaming at me on the lane calling me a little woman.
This was because we were trying to access our business mind and we had rights to be on the lane.
And they lived at the top of the lane.
And the lane only had bridal way access.
And walking up, you know, public road away as in footpath.
Cars and vans and stuff are not supposed to be up there.
Nothing to do with us, nothing to do with me.
Not my department.
But obviously as a shop we have loading and unloading rights and we can unload for 20 minutes at a time without moving.
You don't need to move here between such and such hours.
I can't remember the hours.
The hours are depicted by the council.
And it could vary, like the filly could be different to here.
So off the top of my head I don't know.
Thank you to the lady who brought these.
And I can see now why you didn't want to get them or anything.
Because they are all good figures.
Lovely, thank you so much for thinking of us.
Scream at me on the lane.
And then...
When they scream at me on the lane...
I give them back.
They are like, I'm ringing the police.
Go on then, what do you think the police are going to do?
You've just screamed at me.
I've just screamed at you back.
What do you think I'm going to do about it?
They are going to say, well you started it mate.
When Smithy went to the police station to complain about it.
They said to him, suck it up princess.
Suck it up, you upset that.
You want to sort it out.
And then the other one is the one that damaged their sign by kicking it out the front by you when he was with his friends.
That's the sign that you've got over there now Sammy.
You know, it is difficult.
Daniels has to stick it and do stuff.
It won't take another blow and be done.
But yeah, he kicked it on the way past.
So that's four out of her ten that have been awful.
And probably need as food.
And then I go, my son is like an angel.
My son is an angel.
I've got flat coke.
My coke and my tablets are in the car and I can't get it out because I've got a load of stuff on top of it.
Just get these done and then I can get them in the cupboard for the body man.
Keep them at least.
The trouble is they think they rule the roost too.
Because they want the monopoly on everything.
And they think they rule the roost.
All they've done in this process of the website and everything else they've done is just really, really shown their true colours.
They've just literally had to sit down and let it unfold for people to see.
I don't know.
We're in the dark again.
What's going on here?
What's going on here?
This is something like the room perhaps.
It's all done in a cable.
I've got a big pool to fill but he might need a wash.
Yeah, I might need to give this to my mother to use the machine on in my car.
But yeah, you need to check the price on that because the one you've got, Sammy, in the window is astronomical.
And it's a bit rough.
This one's quite nice.
Which, gladly, yours is.
I came in once
and she'd shown me a pile of plates on a picture.
You know, because I won this.
Oh yeah, I put them all at the pound and left it like that.
I didn't think my mother would come in and they were paper plates and she put a pound each on them.
I was like, are you overthinking the pricing?
Can you imagine if these eaters had come in and said, oh, they're charging a pound of paper.
But like Jan, they always say to us, pricing is subjective and that's why we've kept it to a couple now.
Just a couple of people pricing.
Daniel's got a bit expensive his pricing.
He needs to get a bit overzealous as well, I find.
I think I'm coming down a bit.
I think you people are going up and I'm coming down in price.
The thing is, see, I know how much we've got and where we've got it.
Whereas you would only see it most coming in the shop and I'm like, hmmm, I need to make some space pretty quick.
So you are like, oh, we know we'll get this, we know we'll get that but I'm like, hmmm, let's break it down a bit.
We have a good relationship with lots of other charities, you know.
They're just a charity, the ones that are just starting up.
We have a good relationship with them.
It's only these ones, you know, and they're cronies, they're flyer monkeys, that's how you call them.
It made me laugh the other day, Ian Smith on the website and he was saying, oh, she's vile, she's a horrible creature, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
I'm like, do any of you own full length mirrors?
Clearly not.
I just think, well, compared to you lot, I must look like an angel to the public.
It made me laugh as well with our decoy pages that we had up for a while.
And that's a good Sherlock's.
AI was, you had to get somebody else to point it out to him.
Your AI is not as good as you're making out.
Your stalking skills are pretty good.
What's that?
I can hear something blowing.
Blowing the toys, the big plastic toys.
I've got loads of leaves in here.
I came in here once and Danny and I had been in here and there were loads of leaves and they were all over the dresser.
And he hadn't taken off.
And she said, oh, I like your autumn display.
I was like, it's not a display, it's all the leaves on the back.
Danny and I haven't taken them off.
There's a leaf blower in here.
Easier to dust with a leaf blower, I think.
I don't know what to do with these Luigi's and Mario's now because they are quite collectible.
So I'll put those up quite high and we'll see what happens.
If the boy men are crying when they're looking in the cabinet, we know we've priced them at the right price because that's what they want it from.
I've got another glass cabinet on hold.
I'm supposed to pick it up this week, but
my car's full.
Full of donations.
The thing is, the quicker we can get them priced up, the quicker that they get sold in there.
The quicker that the rest of the staff can get them out and tidy them up and can work their magic when a customer comes in and they say, oh, have you got any of these?
And I say, oh yeah, I've got them over here in the cabinet.
And you know, they're on this price and I can spend £20 after that price.
I don't have a £5, is that for free?
There you go.
That's him, that's Mario.
Oh, he's definitely looking alkeny.
Taking too many rides.
My pen is hardly touching the paper because I'm trying to rip through it.
Trying to rip through it, get it done.
Because I know we could have 20 bags of toys in at any time.
But this is what we make the money on, see, is the vintage toys and the collectible toys.
So the other toys just, you know, six, seven, I don't care anymore.
Checking a few books as well.
Because all the books are, you know, priced up that you've got in your shop.
So if they're first editions or collectible ones, the kids books, we know, you know, the sets usually go quite well, don't they?
So if it's just like a book, check two books in as well.
They only come back when the mother's finished with them.
Don't lose anything, do we?
We've had loads of new people.
I've had loads of mums contact me saying, can you pick this lot up?
Can you pick this?
I can't, guys.
We're absolutely at capacity and just exhausted.
Absolutely exhausted we are.
Absolutely exhausted.
Just shoving them in there for now.
Sort that after.
Once we clear a bit more of a space.
Got some bigger ones there.
One, two, three, four, five, six,
seven.
I think people are starting to start their Christmas shopping now, aren't they?
I call my mothers.
I've got to do a TikTok last year and she liked it.
I got her the full set this time.
I only got a little one last time.
I haven't got anything for my dad yet, but I tell you what I did see.
It wasn't a robotic window cleaner.
That might help him out loads.
Because he's fussy.
I'm fussy with windows and glass and stuff.
That might help him out.
I'm thinking, it's a bit more than what I wanted to pay, but I think it would be useful to him.
He likes his gadgets.
Dan, I haven't really got anything for Dan.
Because we're going away.
Because he's got everything.
I just haven't got any room for anything else for him.
What do you buy somebody who's got everything?
His birthday, I've got him edible stuff.
Because he can just eat that.
Last year, I did buy him some sweets and stuff.
He had those when he came back.
I might get him some sweets and stuff.
He likes his munchies.
But, I also bought him short sets for holiday.
To be honest, he didn't really get the weight out of them.
I don't know if it was worth buying him any.
Because then he had those to open every day.
They didn't wrap him or anything.
Because we only had limited bags.
But we've got everything.
So we might as well just go away and enjoy ourselves.
And have a break.
And have an experience.
Like we went on the stargazing experience in Egypt.
That was brilliant.
It was the cheapest exclusion there.
And you know what?
He fancied it straight away.
As soon as it came up.
We've seen Saturn.
We've seen Mars.
We've seen the rings around Saturn.
Like a big Hubble telescope.
Not the Hubble one.
It wasn't dear and we had food out there.
And you could ride the camel.
So we didn't ride any camels.
We don't need to ride a camel.
They don't need to be walking around.
I know that's the job and that's what they've done for thousands of years.
But this day and age you don't need to be riding camels.
Start a camel sanctuary.
You'd get more money that way I think.
You could still have the dress for the camel.
And while the poor camel had to walk around with all the stuff.
Not my favourite place, sorry.
I'll never forget that.
Can you imagine if he'd come in and say, I've photographed this.
Go
through that CCTV.
I can't believe how many people came in.
Clothed the CCTV.
And then were like, oh.
They came in and they were looking for CCTV.
Because we had to go through it for the theft.
You can see it being passed out to the other person.
But the amount of people that came in and then looked up and around and then spotted the camera.
And were like uneasy.
But backing off at the same time.
And it was like, oh.
Another one foiled.
CCTV, I used to watch it by my house.
The amount of weirdos.
I used to go past my house and go in my bin and things.
And you've got it up and you start seeing things.
Oh my god, oh my god.
Really dent those black bags.
I think now.
I got a My Little Pony Castle.
An old fashioned one.
I think you give us that.
A while ago it was in the van.
But I think it's worth quite a bit.
I think they were going for 70 or 80 online.
So I'll have a look.
But it does need to clean that one.
So I've got it there.
And then I've got that big poor patrol teddy.
Might do him as a free raffle.
It's a big one isn't it.
We haven't had anything yet.
We haven't had a free raffle with a teddy for a while have we.
I'm tired now.
So tired today.
I've got this but no hammer by the look of it.
This bag will probably be easy to do.
Because it's just a shopping bag.
And it's got a steriliser.
We'll have to recheck.
And then a couple of clothes.
That'll be a quick one to do now.
I've got to pull everything out from in front of the cupboards to get in.
Oh it's not in now.
And there's a lot of other things in here as well.
I think that's the...
Maybe it's a nice day so you can get quite a bit out on that step.
But we're lucky really to have that little bit of a step.
But if the weather's bad We just can't do it.
Well anyway can we?
I've ordered some plastic tops.
Just as a...
You know because stuff will get wet.
Especially if you've got it that sideways rain.
You think oh it's covered by the canopy outside Pontipool and then you look at it and you think oh no it's stuck to the side.
And then the last thing we need is anything mouldy.
Because it's got damp.
It's a bad time of year anyway for the shops.
Because of what you've got in them and stuff.
And if you've got one tiny thing that's mouldy that's it you know.
It'll spread to everything so you've got to be on top of stuff like that.
That's something we learnt you know.
You can't just put the donations in a pile and keep adding to the pile and then sort out the years time because if you've got something dodgy in there it's all gone.
Oh that's lovely look at that.
New in the box.
Oh this thing.
Oh it's in the middle of donating figures.
I'll carry it away then with this bag.
I might be able to make a staff and stuff in my car.
I don't know I'm trying to think where we've got.
We've got one shelf up there but I think we've had it then.
One shelf for like a big dish I've got is breakable see.
So I could put dishes up there.
That's why I kept it for this shop because it was easier to get it out here.
Bring it in.
We've got a lot of closure so I think we'll do a bag for a favour on the adult closure as well.
And then do the 4 for 15 year.
We could do it in all the shops especially Caerphilly as well.
We've got so much haven't we guys.
So lucky we are blessed by the donation fairies.
Got some lovely things in Risca for gifts.
Beautiful things.
Of course I couldn't believe that baby bag.
Let me look at that.
I don't care if it's not brand new.
What have we got?
We have H&M.
One to two months.
Trust H&M to do it different to everybody else.
Two to four they do.
And the rest of the country is doing three to six.
Note to three.
Lovely.
Nice outfits.
I'll probably just do them on my lap guys because I need to do it quickly.
Pinks.
I was just doing the baby one.
I was doing the figures.
I wish I could put that on that.
Something has blown off again.
Got a nice pool of leaves out there.
I think these are all going to be note to three.
Just checking on my fire labels and stains.
That one is a bit stained.
For the wash.
Up to three.
A little white company.
That was an expensive company.
I wonder who is going to go next guys.
Which food next is going to go.
Not looking good for cost of coffee I don't think.
What if Coca Cola are selling them?
They are going to offload them.
They are selling them at a loss too.
That looks a bit mild.
Give my hands a wash.
The trouble is when you are handling stuff as well.
That looks a bit mild.
You would be surprised how many times you are going to wash your hands in a day.
Working with donations.
Should have gloves.
They should be gloves under the sink.
Or in the kitchen area if anyone wants gloves.
I should just wash my hands.
We used to do caring in the community on a farm.
In Caerphilly.
Lovely guy.
Lovely family.
They all went down with dysentery.
All the carers went down with dysentery.
It was about five or six of them.
All had the same thing.
The patient was fine.
Because you are handling the gates.
And opening the gates.
With your bare hands.
They all used to laugh at me.
But I was the new one who didn't get sick.
Because I used to put my gloves on to open the gates.
And then get rid of my gloves before we went in.
To start with the patient.
They all used to laugh at me because I glove up to go open the gates.
The thing is you have cows and stuff on the farm.
Rubbing their butt up against the gate.
Scratching it.
All laughing at me.
I was the only one who wasn't sick in the end.
And they were rough.
I'd be glubbing up on the way there.
In the passenger seat.
But I didn't work through Covid.
A lot of people work through Covid and struggle.
But I was too ill.
They wouldn't even let me go in the wards.
And they were desperate for the nursing staff.
They actually changed the old syllabus for the nursing staff.
During the university's day.
To get those cohorts of nurses out onto the workforce floor.
Quicker.
So they turned it around.
Because I think what usually happens in your third year.
Is you do a mixture of theory and placement.
What they did was put all the placements.
Towards the end.
Of the year.
So that they were straight out onto the floor.
And they were on the wards as extra help.
As part of their placements.
So they bunched them all up I think.
I think that's what they did.
I knew I could have been useful.
Out there caring in the pandemic.
But started the baby back instead.
There we are.
All that happens for a reason, doesn't it guys?
Everything happens for a reason.
So we've got a nice big bag full here.
So this would be, fill a bag for a fiver.
If not add a few more to it.
I think we are going to run out of baby clothes any time soon.
Maybe the 12 to 18 and the 18 to 24's.
Because they go quite quick.
I've got a car boot sales on.
They will be due this weekend.
I don't want to get stuck on a field today with mud.
But they are going for it I think.
Mostly notes of three.
Get them out in the basket now.
I could do with somebody in next week tidying up the basket.
Because he, Dan will be, he's got hooks to put up.
He's got other jobs to do.
I could do with an extra volunteering in every shop.
To start going through the baskets.
When we do fill a bag for a fiver.
They get a bit ransacked.
So I could do with somebody coming in.
Double checking us that they are clean.
And making sure that...
All the poppers are done up so they are tidy.
All the accessories are in the right places.
I always put the accessories in with the stuff.
Because by the time the mothers have come into our shops.
Gone through everything.
Gone through the baby clothes.
Gone up four floors in Pontypool.
And then...
Four floors and fifteen rooms or whatever it is.
Because they haven't got time to go in the accessory boxes have they?
So I put them all in the same thing.
Because then they would be like, oh I'll have those tights and that hat.
Ah, there we are.
I don't know when this is really quiet down here.
I think it shuts down now.
Like Newbridge.
Like the Dark Ages.
Newbridge do half day, don't they?
Everything is dead in Newbridge.
Not sponsored by Pepsi Max.
Should be a bit more bust overnight if I pulled out.
If me and Sammy pulled out I think.
And Ellie and everybody else.
A bit more bust.
I think this is books.
It's going to take longer.
Books are supposed to...
Books and like a boardy thing.
But I don't know whether it's supposed to be pegs or something with it.
It's not supposed to go even if it hasn't got pegs you know.
It's not supposed to be the end of the world if it doesn't have pegs.
And whether we'll utilise that in some shape or form.
Oh, there's tons of leads aren't there?
I'm going to put the books in there.
Because obviously they're...
They're not done or cleaned.
But at least they're on a shelf.
Look at these bags.
And then because it's clearly not five.
And of course the bags are not only stable.
They're rather...
What do I want?
I think we have the hammer.
We may have the hammer for that toy.
Yay, we got it.
There we are.
We got it.
It quite strongly smells half.
I don't know why.
It's coming from, I don't know.
Look, there's the marshmallow down there.
Right.
And I've come off, was it just more... I think it said eight feet.
I'd buy it like that.
Ask yourself, why BabyBank?
It's also a registered charity.
It wouldn't take bottles.
Why do they always want new stuff?
How is that sustainable?
Yes, we get loads of new stuff in, you know.
But, er...
They should be brought to recycling as well.
And I mean, if those bottles don't go, it's going to be market.
I'm going to move the car down, guys.
They're in charge of the shop.
I didn't get the place anyway.
I've got chicken burger now, so I'm going to have that, guys.
So I'll see you in a bit.
