Yay! you are so awesome. I'm so happy for you to get this attention:)
Hey you have a great voice! Very authoritative.
awesome!
fabulous tips…and I love your smile. You look so fabulous on TV.
Wow! That's awesome! You're a star! I'm so happy for you, this is great publicity for a great service that you're doing for women all over!
Aw, Sal, that was great! You're totally a natural!
Yeah!!!!
Great Job, I've been thrifting for trends for years and it has "paid" off.
Of course, I think I set my own trends some time..got to express myself.
Looking good girl!
Yay! Finally I can see this too (Mac).
I love the way you come across on video. So confident and friendly!
What a wonderful opportunity! Thanks for sharing some tips on thrift shopping. I grew up on the concept, and have found some of my favorite (and timeless) pieces from thrift stores. With the economy being the way it is, thrift store shopping is the way to go to find great deals. Though, I must say, with thrifting becoming "trendy," I have found prices aren't as discounted as they used to be. It could be that I'm longing for the days of like 10 years ago when I could buy a cute miniskirt for $.99. Yes, I do miss those days :0).
yay, you are so good! love those channel twelve graphics and intro music. . . .
You came across very knowledgeable.
Great tips.
I had my first great thrifting experience the other day.
U sound and look fantastic!! Congrats!!!!
Everything about this clip was great, your outfit, your voice and your tips.
I hope that you do more of these segments.
That is fantastic! Great tips.
I borrowed from your clothes ban and am using it as my Pursuit for More Clothing. Cheap. project. I have lost so much weight that I am quickly running out of clothes.
Awesomeness!! Sal you are great on camera. You sounded smart, you looked stylish and your tips were right on!! Great job, you deserve it. Hope to see lots more of you on TV.
Based on your local thrifting recommendations, my 16-year-old daughter and I went to Value Village and Savers when we were in Mlps/St Paul this summer visiting colleges. We made quite the haul (had to buy another suitcase). My daughter has become a thoroughly convinced and discerning thrifter as a result. And the schools we visited definitely moved up the list on the basis of that experience (that and the great vibe of the region). Thanks so much!

Lovely Lady, lovely smile, as always! And great tips! You're really helpful, see? I do admire your thrifting patience. I can't do that anymore. The thought alone of hitting the thrift shops with my kids scares me away really fast! And to say children don't change you! Ha!
Anyways, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! I hope you get even more media coverage, you deserve it!
Awww, yay!
You held your own!! I'm glad you shared that tip (that I read on here a while back) about the muted colors looking more spendy – such a goods tip!
This is fantastic, you are so at ease and eloquent on camera!
Cayooooooot! I hope you did walk out with that motorcycle! Also, the anchorlady mentions brushed metals, which I know you like… You're on it, lady!
