We're back after a long hiatus while Nicole was on assignment in Vermont, checking out every possible thrift store. This might not be an exaggeration--it's a small state, and she went to a lot of stores. Sometimes more than once! And she seriously won't quit on this vacuum cleaner thing. Listen as she gets upset at Alden for not being excited enough about her Vermont purchases!
Did we even talk about a thriftstore find today? Can't remember. This episode is mostly about Nicole admitting to saying certain words incorrectly and using the phrase "mission creep" with absolutely no understanding of what it might mean.
Nicole didn't steal this or switch price tags or anything! Enjoy this story about the most expensive vacuum cleaner you've ever heard of: the Electrolux Silverado! It's the Cadillac of vacuum cleaners.
Nicole is once more committing thrift-crimes and blaming them on the exploited working class. Alden discusses his addiction to unwrapping packs of trading cards. Which of Nicole's thefts is worse? Let us know!
Nicole gets a bonus coffee table and introduces Alden to yet more of her famous thrift grifts. Also, Nicole is still upset about a cat lamp she didn't buy, even though Alden bought her an identical cat lamp to the one she didn't buy. Folks, he can't win!
Nicole struggles valiantly to liberate an item from an estate sale and then immediately tucks it away in a drawer but she swears it's great and she loves it and it was worth all the trouble and inconvenience.
This wasa show about Nicole's thrifting adventures, but she's slowly turning it into a show about her (small! tiny!) criminal past. We're slowly easing our way into true crime territory, folks! Stick around!
Nicole talks second-hand shoe shopping, shoe parties, and running from Roman transit police.
In our first-ever episode, Nicole goes blue right out of the gate and tells us all about a classic thriftstore find: the bunny orgy mug!
