I think prices vary - I'll give you the prices I see locally. Even these vary!

Disney VHS movies - anywhere between $1.00 and $3.00

Adult Hardcover books - $1.00 - 2.00 (unless a recent best-seller, or an Oprah's bookclub pick - then probably $3.00+ (depends on condition)

Adult Softcover -.25 or .50 (or more - depending on condition)

Kids chapter books - 2/$1.00 or 3/$1.00

shoes - I always find that we don't get much for these - possibly $2.00 a pair? You might get more to sell to resale or consign.

I hope I didn't discourage you - like I said - I think this can be regional - and even vary within different neighborhoods in a particular region.

Good luck!
