Thrift Shopping Antiques & Vintage in 2 Countries! Who Wins?

The heat is on! We're shopping two thrift stores in the same chain on different sides of the US-Canadian border, in search of cool things for our collections and bargains we can bring to our collectors. Where are the bargains best, and what's the difference between thrifting south and north of the border?

We start at the Burien, Washington Value Village, a place we've come to find valuable vintage for decades! The donation center, stock room and shelves are packed, with more good stuff rolling out as we shop. We meet a viewer who just picked up sterling in the silver plate section, so we're going to look hard through the shelves! A cheaply priced English creamer and a spatter glass vase make us go grab a cart right away, and we show the whole experience as we pile up a nice total at the register. But is it enough for Team USA to win?

It looks like it'll be a close contest when we enter the Value Village in Richmond, British Columbia, the Canadian challenger in this battle! A different mix of vintage and antiques awaits us, with English and even Cuban items (that we can't take back over the border) amidst the American, Canadian and pan-Asian vintage we find! A Viking Glass duck reminds us why we came, and we even find furniture! But is that enough to put Team Canada in the lead? You'll have to watch to the end to see who wins this international thrift shopping duel!
