FunTranscript
00:00Why are you a cartoon when it comes to shoes?
00:02I'm a cartoon when it comes to everything, Frankie.
00:04I don't know if you've noticed.
00:12John will be here in about five minutes.
00:15Last night I was in Maine, and Auntie Christy and my cousin Cole and my cousin Jude and
00:22my cousin Luke and my uncle Matt all gifted these two.
00:27Another Lubulu?
00:29I hope you didn't have to pay what I paid.
00:32No, I paid the normal price.
00:34Which is like 30 some?
00:3524.
00:36Okay.
00:37And he's like, $106 please.
00:39And I was like...
00:41I got happiness, Lubulu, and I got Coca-Cola, Lubulu.
00:45Look who's coming to shop.
00:48Morning.
00:48We haven't done this early morning stuff in a long time.
00:52Has it been a long time?
00:53I think normally we head out around eight or nine.
00:55Yeah.
00:55Yesterday Gloria got a few extra Lubus.
00:57So we're going to the Rent-Them Outlets.
00:59Yes.
00:59Like we have no purchase of the Rent-Them Outlets.
01:01No.
01:01We're not clothing people.
01:02They used to have a Disney store.
01:04They used to have a lot of cool stores actually.
01:06But now it's become like, what, 75% clothing stores and 20% shoe stores?
01:10Yeah.
01:11I think they still have like a kitchen pampered chef style.
01:13Yeah.
01:14Something like that.
01:14So why go?
01:15Well, because in our area, the Rent-Them Outlets, it's the destination spot, especially for Black Friday.
01:21So, I mean, when we started doing these videos, the joke was, let's go to Sears, let's go to Kmart.
01:25Sure.
01:26But now we were just trying to cover Black Friday ground.
01:28Yes.
01:29Rent-Them is the only place that there are news stories about how busy it was.
01:34What a mess at the Rent-Them Outlets last Black Friday when cars couldn't move.
01:37Yeah, we remember.
01:38That's why preparations are underway now to avoid a repeat so you don't get stuck.
01:43There is multi-hour traffic backups at the exits.
01:47I have to bring in extra police detail.
01:49There's always some article about how the Rent-Them police are planning to deal with the chaos at the outlets.
01:54Yeah.
01:54Today is Black Friday, and if you're one of thousands heading anywhere near the Rent-Them Outlets today,
01:59you can expect to be stuck in traffic and you might have some trouble finding parking.
02:02You're really trying to fit way more people into a spot than it was designed for.
02:06So it's going to take patience, lots of patience,
02:10and an expectation that you could be backed up in traffic for a very long time.
02:16No one better stuck on my head accidentally.
02:19That's manslaughter and I don't want to die.
02:22I think we'll be safe from manslaughter.
02:24We kind of avoided the Rent-Them Outlets for that reason specifically.
02:27I think at some point you're just going to man up and go.
02:29Sure.
02:30One interesting point, though.
02:31I think we have been here in a car video before, haven't we?
02:35Yeah, for Cracker Barrel.
02:36For Cracker Barrel.
02:37Yeah.
02:37I think that's the only thing we've explored here.
02:38It was a giant LeBooBoo float.
02:40It was?
02:40Thanks to me, they were in there.
02:42What about LeBooBoo?
02:44LeBooBoo?
02:45You're at LeBooBooBoo.
02:46The only float content that made it to me was a very deflated Shrek.
02:49I kept seeing on Facebook a bunch of AI floats.
02:52Remember when Ghostbusters had a float in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade?
02:55And they did not.
02:56So EJ's meeting us there.
02:57And he says that it's a standstill on the exit, just as we said.
03:01He says his GPS says it'll be 18 minutes to get through the one mile to get there.
03:05Wow, he can listen to like two meatloaf songs.
03:08Have you ever been to the Rent-Them Outlets on Black Friday?
03:10No, I've been to some after-Christmas sales and some back-to-school shopping that I thought
03:16was insane at the time, but I don't think it's going to compare them.
03:19So we tried to get there.
03:21Look, it's blocked off.
03:22It says...
03:22It's all blocked off.
03:23Use 495 to exit 38.
03:25Ignore GPS routes.
03:26Why did they do that?
03:28They don't want people going through your residential neighborhood.
03:29A warning for Rent-Them Outlet shoppers ahead of Black Friday.
03:33Police say starting on Thanksgiving Day, they're going to close all those alternate GPS routes
03:37in the area.
03:38Officers will be stationed at roadblocks to direct traffic.
03:42Look, look, everybody's having to turn around.
03:44Everybody's having to turn around.
03:47They should put the Ignore GPS route sign further down here.
03:50This guy just gets to sit in that car all day.
03:52That's some detail today.
03:54This entire family of people is like, crap.
03:57So what exit was it?
03:58Okay, we're trying to get to exit 38, but it's backed up to exit 36B.
04:03And here starts the traffic.
04:05There can't be anybody in Massachusetts who's not aware of the right.
04:08Rent-Them situation on Black Friday.
04:10But I would feel bad for them if they were.
04:11If you're trying to get somewhere that's not Rent-Them and you're just sitting here for
04:15an hour in what should take you three and a half minutes, that would be terrible.
04:18You do a Minecraft back there?
04:19Yeah.
04:20Laura's showing me the cool things she made.
04:21The actual bottleneck here, if I recall, is that, yeah, you get off the exit, that's all fine.
04:35And then there's like a red light right when you're about to turn into the outlets.
04:39It's all coming in waves of like when the green light goes.
04:42And maybe that's something they could improve.
04:44Maybe if you're going to have this much traffic and it's moving this slowly, do you need a
04:47red light?
04:48Do you need it?
04:49Well, maybe they've already taken care of this and turned it off.
04:52Maybe.
04:52Maybe the bottleneck is somewhere else.
04:54All we can do is speculate and imagine.
04:56And right now, all we have is time and our imaginations.
04:58I'm just playing Minecraft survival mode.
05:01You can make a stick from wood planks and you can make wood planks from a piece of log.
05:06Not how it works in the real world.
05:08How do you make torches?
05:10You start with logs.
05:11So you're going to get yourself a pickaxe, but you can make a wooden pickaxe.
05:14Now to make sticks out of the planks, put the planks in the top.
05:19They got their fuzzy shirt books.
05:21This is the first store we're seeing.
05:23It's a pottery barn outlet.
05:24But it's one of the outbuildings.
05:26It's not the outlets proper.
05:27Okay, they haven't even really been factory outlets.
05:29They make intentionally lower quality goods to sell at these locations.
05:32They're outlet line items.
05:35Oh, I see the Cracker Barrel.
05:37There's a Cracker Barrel.
05:37I see the Cracker Barrel.
05:38The Cracker Barrel.
05:39That we went to.
05:40With the gentleman in his barrel.
05:41Look, for some reason, the iPhone can't film that.
05:44I know.
05:44I've seen that phenomenon.
05:46We're in.
05:47Now we're actually moving.
05:49Yeah, it looks like we'll actually be able to park.
05:51It was those three red lights.
05:52Well, two red lights.
05:52They disabled one of them.
05:53We did it, guys.
05:55I mean, we are still here quite early, I think,
05:57compared to society.
05:58What happened to EJ?
05:59He's northbound.
06:01No!
06:02So the traffic's way worse for him.
06:04Once we got off the highway, it went way better than I expected.
06:07Yeah.
06:07They have done work.
06:08They've done the work.
06:09Come on, tell me this is not a little holiday-ish out here.
06:11It is holiday-ish.
06:12I do like it.
06:13Coach has a giant line.
06:14And look, you have to get into the circular line.
06:17I like the circular line.
06:18Do you?
06:19I could start dancing.
06:20I could get into it.
06:20I know all these stores.
06:23They're all classic American stores.
06:25I'm out here in pajama pants.
06:27Why'd you wear pajama pants?
06:29I thought it'd be fun.
06:29You got a free shatoukish.
06:31So this is where the Disney store was.
06:33It was right around here.
06:34Yeah.
06:34Sadly, gone four years now.
06:36There's got to be some store we find interesting.
06:38I don't know.
06:39Now let's look at this sign, quickly.
06:41She's looking at this.
06:42We got a clothes, clothes, clothes, clothes, clothes, shoes, clothes, clothes, sunglasses,
06:49clothes, clothes, clothes, clothes, don't know.
06:53Well, we better go somewhere because it's cold.
06:55Everland?
06:56It's busy in here, too.
06:57Oh my God, look at it.
06:59Can we get John a pair of Tim's?
07:00130 bucks.
07:01Is 50% off?
07:03Are you serious?
07:04Clothes.
07:06What does that look like?
07:08130 bucks.
07:09Clothes.
07:11Clothes.
07:13Clothes.
07:15Clothes.
07:16Clothes.
07:17Clothes.
07:18Clothes.
07:19Clothes.
07:20Clothes.
07:21I could go for a pair of gloves because it's cold out.
07:23Do you have none at home?
07:24I just didn't bring any.
07:25Oh, it's like a huge dressing room, but nobody's making any use of it.
07:28This door is way too short.
07:29Oh, Gloria's just closing it off.
07:31Yeah, but this door is way too short.
07:33Because you can see on that.
07:34Oh, shoot.
07:34Oh, shoot.
07:34Oh, shoot.
07:35Did you lock it?
07:36Oh, no.
07:39She's trapped in there.
07:42Oh, what a magic trick.
07:44That's been so short.
07:4468 dollars.
07:46Wow.
07:4668 bucks.
07:4768 dollars.
07:48So you have to fight your way into this place to pay for it.
07:50I think they're half off, though.
07:51If you were eight years old and adults in your life dragged you out of bed to this.
07:55I would not be putting up with it as well as Gloria does.
07:59That's for sure.
08:01Clothes.
08:04Clothes.
08:05A little stand made out of a truck box.
08:08Made out of a shipping container.
08:09I appreciate the seating density.
08:11That's pretty good.
08:12Yeah.
08:12Lululemon.
08:13Lululemon line.
08:14Oh, look at the tray.
08:16All right.
08:18Look at the tray.
08:19Oh, look at the tray.
08:22Oh, look at the tray.
08:23Would you stand away from the tray, please?
08:25Do me a favor.
08:26Get away from the tray, please.
08:28Get away from the tray, please.
08:30Would you get away from the tray?
08:31I'm trying to stuff in different ways.
08:35Can I try it out?
08:36Keep going.
08:38Spinner.
08:45Now I've got the pecans.
08:47Now, this is fascinating because we can directly compare.
08:50We've had the shoes.
08:51I think they're delicious.
08:52But the cashews, though.
08:53I think the shoes, well, I think I prepared the pecans.
08:55I'm going to kill him.
08:56I'm going to kill him.
08:56He-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e.
08:58He-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e.
08:59I wrote a song.
09:00It's called The Angel on Top of the Tree.
09:02Okay.
09:02Merry Christmas trees, tiny ones, giant ones, instead of a star, just have a little angel.
09:14Wanna be an angel on top of the tree.
09:17I wanna be the angel on top of the tree.
09:23This is called Angel on Top of the Tree.
09:25All right, we'll make it into a Christmas bed.
09:27We were a little confused because New Balance is here, but the sign goes all the way down there.
09:32Just a little bit, a wee bit confused.
09:34Maybe it's New Balance for men.
09:36New Balance for men.
09:37Maybe these are Martha Stewart products for men.
09:40And, you know, mattresses for men.
09:42Yes.
09:42Right, and couches.
09:43And patio furniture for men.
09:48You know, I feel a little like a bull in a trying to shop in a store like this.
09:52They got shoes.
09:53I only wear one brand of shoes.
09:55Merrell's.
09:56They got clothes.
09:57None of my size.
09:58I've never been in a New Balance.
09:59Not really.
10:00I used to do this when I was a kid.
10:02When my mother would drag me to a miserably boring store.
10:04She's reached peak border.
10:06It was magical being inside of one of these, so I wanted to.
10:11And is it magical?
10:13No.
10:14Oh, I've got a pecan shell.
10:16Shell, no!
10:17Was there a warning?
10:18Make it to any shells?
10:19You could sue?
10:19I've been literally at this exit for, at this point, two hours.
10:25And I'm still not, I'm still not off.
10:30I'm still not off.
10:32It's two hours.
10:35We must.
10:36Buy three, get four for me.
10:37That's a serious amount of candles.
10:38That is a lot.
10:39It used to be buy three, get three.
10:40Now it's buy three, get four.
10:41Do you buy candles anymore?
10:42Candle embargo still in place.
10:44Haven't gone through.
10:45A multi-year embargo.
10:46Multi-year embargo on candles.
10:51It's good.
10:52You made the face of the music.
10:55It's like too loud.
10:56It does smell like fresh berries.
10:58Can I get some of the money this video makes?
11:01Sure, money.
11:02It is vitamin, sugar, pretzel cookie.
11:05So it's a milk bar collab, and it's all dessert themed.
11:08My eye is drawn to the tremendous number of hologrammy sparkles over here.
11:12Yeah.
11:13I don't want the product necessarily, but I do like the presentation.
11:15Oh my gosh, there's platinum?
11:17She likes platinum things.
11:19Oh, okay.
11:19Or like the concept of platinum being above gold.
11:22Yes.
11:22A little tiny gingerbread house bag.
11:24I like that.
11:25I got it.
11:26It's beautiful.
11:26It's so beautiful.
11:28I thought over here, these might be Christmas ornaments, and I might have some truck.
11:32They're diffusers.
11:33Oil diffusers, which I don't have any truck with.
11:35But they are pretty cool.
11:37They love the little snowman.
11:38I think it's super cute.
11:39Oh, I love it.
11:40Oh, I have a projector.
11:42It shines a little...
11:43Oh, get it.
11:45Plug it into the house, and it makes a projector too.
11:47Oh, it's more like the side of the house?
11:50Oh, no.
11:50It's a smelly thing.
11:51If you buy three diffusers, Nina, you get four for free.
11:54If I want to put every single outlet in my house out of commission.
11:58I'm kind of okay with my house smelling like artificial.
12:00Sure.
12:01Artificial pleasant.
12:02How much would you pay for this?
12:05With a projector?
12:06With a projector?
12:0740.
12:07I'm going to go 36.
12:0939.95.
12:10I said 40.
12:11So if I buy $120 worth of these, I get $160 worth for free.
12:17Which kind of questions the value in the first place.
12:19Attention, traders fans.
12:21The holidays are here.
12:22They're shopping.
12:23People are...
12:23The vibe is vibing.
12:24Here we go.
12:26Is it projecting anything?
12:28Oh, here we go.
12:29It's a little cute.
12:30A little less cute than I thought.
12:31Again, I'm sorry.
12:33We got a lot of people coming in.
12:35Roma Joe's.
12:36I'm going to go get a coffee.
12:37Roma Joe's.
12:37We go there in Swansea.
12:39Best hot chocolate I've ever had.
12:40Really?
12:40I love hot chocolate.
12:41I don't like a lot of hot chocolate.
12:42Yeah, I think a lot of them taste like nothing.
12:49I can't have anybody crowding my door, so I have to go outside with the left.
12:55All right, let's give it a try.
12:58Oh, it's really good.
12:59Told you.
12:59It's got real milk in it.
13:00Yeah.
13:01And that is like something that a lot of hot cocoa really doesn't have anymore.
13:04Two separate people complimented me on my hat.
13:06Really?
13:07Yeah.
13:07Like I never get compliments.
13:09Is it a nice hat?
13:09Yeah.
13:10It says, I like your hat and nice hat.
13:12Nice hat.
13:13I bought it in Sweden in 2008 when I took a trip over there for work.
13:17I bought two hats and this is by far the best hat I've ever owned.
13:21Okay, I almost just lost my favorite hat.
13:23I got this hat when I took a trip to Sweden for work in 2007.
13:28It is my absolute favorite hat that I've ever found.
13:31Ear flaps that go over the ears completely fleece lining on the inside and then a little ways up it just switches over so it's got a little ventilation out the top.
13:38Soft and super warm.
13:39I love it.
13:40I always thought the ball would fall off.
13:42It's so strongly held you have no idea.
13:45There's a reason for the pom-pom and I've read it but I don't remember what it is now.
13:49It actually gets in the way a little bit.
13:50So John told us he only buys one pair of shoes and he has no purchase with this place otherwise.
13:55But there's a Merrell's store right there.
13:57And Merrell's is the one brand of shoes I wear.
13:59These are Merrell's.
13:59Do you have any interest?
14:01I have a little interest.
14:02Do you only buy them online normally?
14:03I normally buy them on Amazon.
14:04I can't believe that this many people would come out for-
14:07For Merrell's.
14:08Hey, there he is!
14:09Yay!
14:10It took a long time.
14:12Four hours?
14:13I left at like five o'clock.
14:15I'm like, great, I'm going to get there like a half an hour early.
14:17Exit 38 had the most horrendous line.
14:20It did not move.
14:21And we knew that.
14:22It would have been better if I just passed.
14:24Yes.
14:25The exit and turned around.
14:26So when you leave, that's what you'll do.
14:28You'll go southbound and then you'll take an exit out.
14:31John wants to go check out this Columbia store for some reason.
14:33I do.
14:34The question is just, do they carry my big ass sizes?
14:36And you want fleeces.
14:37I want fleeces.
14:38I'm looking for like socks that I can put in a stocking for my wife.
14:43Maybe they have some.
14:44Done.
14:45They may do.
14:46A fan noticed us.
14:47Oh really?
14:48Yeah, that happened.
14:49I was buying nuts and he was like, I just want you to know I watch all your videos.
14:51And I was like, my videos personally?
14:52Look at all this activity.
14:54I just failed to see what's like all that different about any of this from what you get at your
14:58local mall.
14:59I'm actually really surprised.
15:00I mean, I knew it was going to have traffic.
15:02But not this.
15:03But not this.
15:04Not stuck at the exit.
15:05Super soft wool blend.
15:07Probably more of a wool blend.
15:09There's always the thing is like you probably shouldn't steer toward the like Christmasy
15:14stuff because you want it to last the whole year.
15:16But you do want it kind of winter themed, right?
15:19Yeah, those are kind of nice.
15:20These are kind of nice.
15:21I like a thick sock.
15:22Like so much so it's almost a slipper.
15:24Yes, exactly.
15:25That's what I want.
15:26I personally don't want a thick sock.
15:27I don't want to be having sweaty feet in the middle of the night.
15:29I don't get sweaty feet.
15:30My feet don't really sweat.
15:3112 bucks after the 50% off.
15:33Pretty good price.
15:34I am slightly looking for an ear flap hat.
15:36Another one like this that has the ear flaps.
15:38Say no Sweden, but they do make ear flap hats.
15:41Ear flap hats.
15:43Oh, you're going to get them?
15:44He's shopping already.
15:46By the way, how's the mocha?
15:47The mocha is just what I needed.
15:49He has this big, this like multi-pack.
15:51It's not the wool blend.
15:52I mean, I want the wool blend.
15:53Oh, you need the wool blend.
15:54He needs the wool blend for his wife.
15:55He needs the wool blend.
15:56I got to have the wool blend too.
15:57He's got a pregnant wife at home.
15:58Yep.
15:59He needs the wool blend.
16:00Let me try these on.
16:01I might actually have some purchase here, Frankie.
16:02Do they fit?
16:03That's the question.
16:04I mean, my hands are not that fat, so.
16:06Right.
16:07No, not at all.
16:08They don't fit.
16:09Not even close.
16:10These are large.
16:11Right at the edge of checking out.
16:12There's more socks.
16:13More and more.
16:14It seems like a bad idea to me to have impulse sock buys
16:16right at the edge of the cashier's.
16:18Yeah.
16:19Right here.
16:20I think I'm just going to do these.
16:21These warm, cozy ones.
16:22Yeah?
16:23Would you believe me if I told you
16:24that there was a backpack in here?
16:26There's a whole backpack in that little bag?
16:28Yeah.
16:29That was really cool, actually.
16:30Oh, she's going back in.
16:31You ever do this as a kid?
16:33Oh, absolutely.
16:34This is just unlocking a core memory.
16:36They're line policing here.
16:37We can't exit this way.
16:38Oh, okay.
16:39Maybe you should yell at them like you did Best Buy.
16:41Yeah.
16:42She feels so great.
16:43She's stuck in there.
16:44Can I have the camera for a second?
16:45I'm going to do a point of view.
16:46This is my point of view.
16:48Can you see me?
16:49Yeah.
16:50Yeah.
16:51Yeah.
16:52The Le Creuset.
16:53I don't know how you say that.
16:54It's French.
16:55Both me and my wife have smashed, between the two of us, sugar bowls.
16:59So I'm thinking of getting a sugar bowl for Christmas.
17:02And I think they may have it.
17:04I was trying to pull up the map for them to bring me knowledge.
17:075G is struggling out here.
17:08I'm just excited to be filming another video.
17:10Yeah.
17:11That's awesome.
17:12I think EJ is going to receive a lot of sugar bowls in the mail now.
17:15What?
17:16You eat all of Gloria's as she stands there proudly?
17:21It's $15 for one of these.
17:23There must be a deal, though.
17:24Have you noticed that this is not one of the busier places?
17:27At least six yet, too.
17:29I just would rather just go to Walmart and get my barbecue rooms.
17:33Gloria wants to prank people and add this into regular gummy bears and see what happens.
17:37That would be so cruel.
17:38I want to do that to you.
17:39$12.99 for a single hot gummy bear.
17:42My kid wants to sneak that into a regular package of gummy bears.
17:45No, I want to take a couple of them and put them into it.
17:48Oh, so you want to make it even worse.
17:50EJ thinks Le Creuset, I'm also interested in Le Creuset, is over there.
17:54I think it's over there.
17:55I think it's over there.
17:56Well, if I point my GPS in this direction, I have old 4G and it still works.
18:01I've got tons of bars.
18:03I've got two SIMs in this phone to distribute providers.
18:07And still, I've got listeners.
18:08Do you really?
18:09You have diverse providers?
18:10I have diverse providers.
18:11Who are they?
18:12T-Mobile and AT&T.
18:13It's not that exciting.
18:14Right.
18:15It's a little exciting.
18:16What's the big sale?
18:17I've been shouting what's the big sale for years.
18:19Yes.
18:20And has anyone ever responded?
18:21No, they go, ha ha ha.
18:22What's the big sale?
18:24What's the big sale?
18:25What's the big sale?
18:26This is your first Black Friday with us.
18:28Yeah, I know it is.
18:29It's very exciting.
18:30I think I've earned it.
18:31Yeah, yeah.
18:32I feel bad.
18:33All right, Meryl's footwear.
18:35Oh, yes.
18:36And you don't even have to wait in a giant line.
18:37I see that John does not buy at the most popular of footwear stores.
18:41Oh, look at this.
18:42It's not exactly my style, but it's pretty close.
18:44Sure, yeah.
18:45Lovely.
18:46Like a cartoon shoe.
18:47John wears shoes that are like-
18:50Cartoons.
18:51The type you would draw for, you know, Peter Griffin or something.
18:53Ooh.
18:54Just a little oval.
18:56Yeah, exactly.
18:57Why are you a cartoon when it comes to shoes?
18:59I'm a cartoon when it comes to everything, Frankie.
19:01I don't know if you've noticed after all these years of filming together.
19:04I mean, I like this.
19:06I like the idea of a slipper that has a real sole.
19:09Bro, imagine if your comfy wear was from the same place that makes your normal footwear.
19:14Imagine that.
19:15Yeah.
19:16Right?
19:17And then you're like an all marital household.
19:18Heel's too low.
19:19I like my heel to be a little covered.
19:20I don't want it to be cold.
19:21People buy me slippers and I don't wear them.
19:23Really?
19:24They're like, he could use some and I don't.
19:25Look, I'm a sicko.
19:26When I take out the trash in the middle of winter, I'll go out with bare ass feet.
19:31Oh.
19:32I have a pair of skater shoes that I just wore out the heel and they just became slippers.
19:37Yeah.
19:38I think it's a water shoe.
19:39It's really nice.
19:40Gore-Tex.
19:41I love the color.
19:42Not really interested at $164.99.
19:43See, some of them are door busters and they're like, Mark, this is just regular price here.
19:47The door is intact.
19:48The door is fully intact.
19:50Nobody's beating down that door.
19:52I never retie my shoes unless it's absolutely necessary.
19:55We're on Black Friday sale, $79.99.
19:57Amazon, $68 right now every day.
19:59Year round.
20:00Yeah.
20:01Sorry.
20:02It's green, too.
20:03I have, like, check all those right now.
20:05Yeah.
20:06I used to have bright green ones.
20:07You still semi-interested in gloves?
20:08I am.
20:09But, confusingly, half of the gloves have no tags or price tags on them whatsoever.
20:13Like, nothing.
20:14Like, they're props.
20:15You can do some sort of a foot test.
20:18Oh.
20:19I've seen these machines.
20:20You don't want to know how expensive those little orthopedic things are.
20:23They're, like, a hundred-something dollars for, like, a set of inserts.
20:26Just to make your feet hurt less.
20:27And what are we going to learn about glow?
20:35Infrared measurement?
20:36Ooh.
20:37And how much are you going to pay for that, Nino?
20:38You're going to pay mystery dollars.
20:40It's a prop store.
20:41It's a prop store.
20:42We weren't sophisticated here.
20:43This is some serious Black Friday-ness.
20:45It is some serious Black Friday-ness.
20:46On the one hand, you had to fight the traffic.
20:48But, on the other hand, it is the most Black Friday.
20:51There's lines.
20:52You have to fight for parking.
20:54People are embracing because it's been so difficult.
20:56The next thing I'm looking for,
20:58Anna needs some new, like, pajamas in the springtime.
21:02I don't know if they have those around now.
21:04Usually, I get, like, L.L. Bean.
21:05Those, like, flannel pajamas.
21:07And I've been bummed out, like, for so many years now,
21:09it's just, like, enough with those already.
21:10Yeah, yeah, yeah.
21:11It's gotten much more insane.
21:13Morale is down.
21:14Look at this line.
21:15If I find something, I'm probably not going to buy it.
21:17I ain't buying it.
21:18Take a photo.
21:19Nina, does the Gap Factory outlet do anything for you?
21:21This was one of the places that I would routinely shop at
21:24when I would come here.
21:25I had a feeling.
21:26She's got the right idea.
21:27I, like, shopped at Old Navy for, like,
21:28the first 20 years of my life.
21:30That's it.
21:31I just got, like, board shorts and all of the day.
21:34Pajamas were too heavyweight in the Gap.
21:36Heavyweight in that they were too wintery.
21:42John Hunt's here at the Rent Them Outlets on Black Friday?
21:45Whoa!
21:46I can't believe I met you here.
21:47Wait a minute.
21:48I thought you were sitting.
21:52You want to get the Disney songs?
21:54Want to smell like Captain America?
21:56Want to smell like Woody Toy?
21:58Now, you wouldn't think a John Hunt would be into fragrances.
22:00I am.
22:01And this is from my preferred brand.
22:02But the problem is, again, $39.99 each, $3 for $99, $28 brand new on eBay.
22:08You can't beat my online.
22:09And this is a limited time offer.
22:11What if you buy a fragrance on eBay and what you get is a Columbo Season 2 that skips?
22:15Yes, like, that would be terrible.
22:17The thing is, this place is so, like, overpoweringly scented already.
22:20I can't even smell anything here.
22:21It'd be like if you had to do a taste test after, like, eating, like, a pound of garlic.
22:25Yeah.
22:26The fragrances get extremely expensive.
22:27Fragrances for ladies and fragrances for men.
22:30For men?
22:31I don't know if you guys, like, order food a lot or get deliveries and they smell, like,
22:36overpowering cologne because that's what the person is doing.
22:38Oh, yeah.
22:39Or it smells like cigarettes.
22:40Yeah.
22:41It smells like cigarettes or it's super cold.
22:42I'm just not interested.
22:43Weed.
22:44Yeah, nice.
22:45Weed, uh, flavored.
22:46Weed and, uh, cologne.
22:47Nice.
22:48Thanks.
22:49Fifty years from now, when Rentham Village Outlets is abandoned, this store is still going
22:53to smell like old perfume.
22:55Yeah.
22:56The line to Shake Shack is serious business.
22:59We're waiting in line at 10 a.m. for Shake Shack.
23:01Do you think that some people, like, the goal when they fight their way through this crowd
23:04is to do all the Christmas shopping in one day and be done with it?
23:07Yeah.
23:08Or I'm sure, like, the bulk of it.
23:09There is a giant Old Navy down there.
23:11As I sit here and watch all the people go by, we have bags of Uggs that have, like,
23:15four pairs of Uggs in them.
23:16There is still rampant consumers in the world today.
23:19As I get older and I realize that this ride ends eventually, the notion of buying something
23:25feels faker and faker.
23:26Doesn't it?
23:27Then I leave and someone else has to throw it all away.
23:29Yeah.
23:30It's not that you own it.
23:31It's that you have one in your house.
23:32Yes.
23:33I thought this would all go online.
23:35I can't believe this is all still here.
23:37It's only getting busier as...
23:39It is!
23:40You got your big touchscreen map.
23:42Oh, yeah.
23:43Useless touchscreen?
23:44Yeah.
23:45But she's using it.
23:46There's free Wi-Fi.
23:47That's how I avoided the cellular problem.
23:48Oh, you got the free Wi-Fi?
23:49Yeah.
23:50I just have to sign my life away.
23:51Burberry.
23:52More lines.
23:53Counting people in, counting people out.
23:54It brings something out of you, Nina, that I don't ever really see.
23:58I don't know what it is about just being out with the music and people.
24:01There could be no stores.
24:02We could just be on some walk or, like, post-Thanksgiving walk and I would have this energy, I think.
24:08Yeah.
24:09There's a crock story.
24:10Ah!
24:11People want to get into North Face.
24:12That makes sense.
24:13That's a staple of this community.
24:14Yeah.
24:15They want to get into North Face, Nina.
24:17I could have called it.
24:18I could have told you that.
24:19I can't call it.
24:21You guys get to judge the dance-off, okay?
24:23Yes.
24:27She's got a song in her head.
24:30There's some bells, I think.
24:32Whoa!
24:34Beautiful side to side.
24:36Oh, okay.
24:37Nina's into it now.
24:38But Nina doesn't have any of these kick-flip things.
24:42Oh!
24:43Nina will not be, will not go unanswered.
24:48Whoa!
24:51Did you get to call Bella?
24:53Do you like them, Neo?
24:54Gloria wins, by the way.
24:56I can't imagine very many things that John would be more allergic to than this.
25:00Well, it's not actually that bad.
25:01No? You like it?
25:02Well, it's because it's got such high density of seating.
25:04Oh, look, John.
25:05Express for men.
25:06For men!
25:07Bella's ice cream right now with your cold hands.
25:09I don't know, do they have cookie dough?
25:11La Crusette, up ahead.
25:13Oh, they have a playground.
25:15This girl should be rewarded for her patience.
25:17Go have fun.
25:18Go have fun.
25:19Go have fun.
25:20Whoa, cool.
25:21This contraption, Gloria, looks the most fascinating to me.
25:24That looks the funnest.
25:26Oh, shit.
25:28You're spreading a lot of cheer today.
25:30Are you into Lindt chocolates?
25:42I am.
25:43I think they're great.
25:44They had a peanut butter variety for the longest time.
25:46I think it's gone.
25:47Really?
25:48And if you want to get the Lindor truffles, you can get 125 truffles for $45.
25:51Or 200 truffles for $70.
25:53They got free chalk.
25:54Yeah.
25:55It's delicious, like all this stuff is.
25:56What did you get?
25:57Peppermint?
25:58Yeah, white peppermint.
25:59$200 for $70.
26:02Great deal.
26:03I don't need $200.
26:04$125 for $45.
26:05Less good deal.
26:06I don't need $125.
26:08One bag.
26:09$40.
26:10I could get $125.
26:11I don't need $125.
26:12But I guess I could do that.
26:13I could package them up for gifts.
26:14It's for gift giving.
26:15It's got to be.
26:16Yeah.
26:17Cheesecake.
26:18I got to say I'm a little bit tempted on the $125 for $45.
26:21And you'd be sitting here picking out $125 of these things?
26:24I would be.
26:25We're going to find the peanut butter.
26:27They don't exist, bro.
26:28It's been years.
26:29Right.
26:30So what is it instead?
26:31Like almond butter or something?
26:32Yeah, that one's right here.
26:33Yeah.
26:34That's your best bet.
26:35Why would they get rid of the best one?
26:36I mean, I think it's a pretty big allergy if I remember correctly.
26:40So, you know, you got to bring everybody down.
26:42They ruin it for everybody.
26:43Oh, cookies and cream.
26:44Hot cup cup.
26:45Short bread.
26:46I guess guilt.
26:47I've decided against it.
26:48Okay.
26:49I've let my brain think and not my stomach.
26:51Look, raspberry vanilla.
26:52There are some amazing flavors here.
26:54Have you seen this kind of like this blocked lint?
26:56Yeah.
26:57You don't talk about the blocks enough.
26:59Not one bit.
27:00My wife would love a pistache.
27:01I will fight the line and get her one pistache.
27:03Nah.
27:04You get your coconut, which would taste like crap.
27:06Tiramisu.
27:07And then you get just assorted bags.
27:09Yes.
27:10This is the way to go.
27:11This is the way.
27:12Yeah, this is what I actually want, but I don't want to pay these prices.
27:14No.
27:15He's filling every single...
27:16Yes.
27:17He's doing that.
27:18He's definitely how it's still done today.
27:20The ice of my people.
27:21Ah, yes.
27:22Do you guys want to check out the candy whiz?
27:26The dim candy store.
27:27This is so very somber.
27:28It was clearly a high-end clothing store, but it is now a candy store.
27:31It's like walking into a church.
27:33Oh, banana runs.
27:34Right.
27:35It's kind of like beautiful interior construction.
27:37Yeah.
27:38You know?
27:39A little too beautiful for the candy whiz.
27:40Yeah, I'll say.
27:41You can like find like gummy bologna in here.
27:43It's kind of weird.
27:44What is this?
27:45This looks delicious.
27:47Nina loves those gummy cola bottles.
27:49The only thing I like are like sour patch watermelon bugs.
27:52Yeah, I like gummy bears.
27:53Like fruity gummy bears.
27:54Yeah.
27:55Sour smells too.
27:56Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
27:57I can get into it.
27:58Gloria has learned to put like things in popcorn, like candy in popcorn.
28:00She'll put junior mints in popcorn.
28:02One time it melts onto the popcorn.
28:04I always save one for the end.
28:06I like a pattern.
28:07First, second, third, and fourth.
28:10And a piece of all at once.
28:12What?
28:13You're making fun of the ice cream, but it has no line.
28:15Auntie Anne's is not good enough to justify that line.
28:18Not even close.
28:19And it doesn't even smell very good.
28:21It smells just like old yeast.
28:23For some reason, these dudes really want to go to Le Creuset.
28:25If I was looking for a sugar bowl, this is probably where I'd go.
28:28Honey pot.
28:29Oh, Bob, I eat honey with my hand.
28:33Is he even a wicked lion?
28:34Oh, look, Gloria.
28:35Wicked.
28:36It's wicked cool.
28:37These prices are defying gravity.
28:39If I was a Le Creuset kind of person, which I would be if I was maybe had 50% more income,
28:44this would be my problem.
28:45Yeah?
28:46It's beautiful, I think.
28:47It's amazing cookware.
28:48Yeah, all of it's called.
28:49Instead, you're a...
28:50An Amazon Basics green generic equivalent that's not half as good.
28:56This is amazing quality stuff.
28:57Yeah?
28:58There's no question.
28:59It is good to have a small, tiny pot.
29:01It's so cute.
29:02Why does everybody, every single person in the whole world, put gravy in an impractical instrument
29:08that makes it difficult?
29:09Like, we're always...
29:10You're always spilling gravy.
29:11Like, we can do better.
29:12Personally, I just take a bowl and a ladle.
29:15Yeah.
29:16That's a really good workaround, a good band-aid.
29:18Let me just say, I suspect sometime in the early 90s or late 80s, there was a false
29:23craft store somewhere in this...
29:24Holy crap.
29:25Can you imagine?
29:26This is where those people must come now, because this is all false graphian.
29:29It's stoneware.
29:30Today's false graph.
29:31Beautiful.
29:32Yeah.
29:33Do you think there's a store still?
29:34There is not.
29:35There's no false craft store.
29:36They have these, but these are too small.
29:37It's like, this is a couple of spoons.
29:38Yeah, yeah, yeah.
29:39And then they have these.
29:40And I do like these, but I don't know.
29:43I don't think it's...
29:44I don't think it's exactly what I just want.
29:45But if it was this size, and it didn't have this weird bell, I think this would be nice.
29:50If this was just a lid, that would be what I would do.
29:52Yeah.
29:53They're trying to give you the idea that you could just gift the whole thing to somebody.
29:55If you got a gift from somebody, you'd be like, this is amazing.
29:57I feel like it's incredible.
29:58So I'm not buying them for anybody.
29:59No.
30:00Show me the box you want to buy that's $35.
30:02Oh, actually, that's pretty nice.
30:03Yeah?
30:04She's got taste.
30:05I have something very similar.
30:06What do you put in it?
30:07It's that kosher salt.
30:08Mm-hmm.
30:09When you season your food.
30:10Yeah?
30:11Cast iron baking dish.
30:12$345.
30:13$345.
30:14Yeah, with 30% off.
30:15And what makes it so special?
30:16Um, cast iron baking dish, I'm sure it would bake incredible.
30:19It would clean really nicely.
30:21Wouldn't, you know, have any...
30:22It would be so easy to clean.
30:23How about these, like, brushing ones?
30:24Those are cool.
30:25I have an OXO one that's pretty similar.
30:27Yeah.
30:28So they didn't really work out?
30:29I mean, there's a lot of nice things here, but that's...
30:32Over here, there's, like, a bread maker dough.
30:34Put your dough in here, and then it rises in there.
30:38Oh, wow.
30:39This is my color.
30:40Alright, Yankee Candle.
30:41If I didn't have a candle embargo, I would be buying this 100%.
30:4631 apiece.
30:47I'd spend 62 and get five candles.
30:49Incredible deal.
30:50But they specifically hire hot.
30:52Oh, yeah.
30:53Absolutely.
30:54All these places do.
30:55Did you notice hot or wise?
30:56Like, the women in the Le Creuset were, like, wise Martha Stewart types?
30:59Yes.
31:00Absolutely.
31:01A certain gay guy that was, like...
31:02Yeah.
31:03A wisdom.
31:04A certain gay wisdom.
31:05A certain gay wisdom.
31:06Much like myself.
31:07But I will say here, they have embraced the outlet motif with industrial-style shelving
31:11that they would never use in their mall locations.
31:13In a mall or something, it would have been, like, normal.
31:16Yeah, nice, fancy shelving, but this is much more basic shelving.
31:19The kind that you might buy from Joanne Fabrics when it goes out of business.
31:21Yeah, particle board.
31:22The shelving we got from Joanne Fabrics, that was just the best purchase ever.
31:26That one that I got that I have the jewels in now, I love it.
31:29I love it so much.
31:30They used to have one that was leather.
31:35I have one of these and I lost it somehow.
31:36How do I lose a candle cutter?
31:38How do I do that?
31:39I did it.
31:40No!
31:41No!
31:42No!
31:43No!
31:44It's been hundreds of dollars.
31:45You're a hype man.
31:46The Lululemon line has not died down.
31:48The people are still waiting.
31:50They're on sale pants.
31:51We made it.
31:52We did it!
31:53Holy cow.
31:54So now we're leaving.
31:55Check this out.
31:56Oh, and EJ is going to be leaving.
31:57Poor EJ.
31:58He's leaving from that side.
31:59Oh no, he needs to wrap around.
32:02Quick, come get him on the telly.
32:04Look, they're still coming in.
32:05They are.
32:06I wonder how long it'll be on the highway now.
32:08At 11.24.
32:09But the question is, will we be free and clear?
32:12It looks like we're free and clear now.
32:14It was honestly cooler than I expected.
32:16There was some cool stuff, like the Christmas tree was really nice.
32:18I thought that the playground for kids was actually really cool.
32:21There were a few stores that I liked too.
32:23It was cool to see the Merrill store that I saw some things I'm going to probably go buy online.
32:27The LeCroset start was great.
32:28I just wish their prices were half of what they are.
32:30It was very nostalgic to see people out and about.
32:32Yeah, look at this.
32:33It's still coming.
32:34Unfortunate.
32:35That is northbound, right?
32:38Right.
32:39That's where we were.
32:40Earlier we were in the car and Gloria was playing Minecraft and was thinking about buying a baked potato in the game.
32:46Trading baked potatoes for emeralds.
32:48And it made Nina hungry for baked potatoes.
32:50And I thought I was going to make one tonight, but now I don't even have to make one.
32:53So we found ourselves at Longhorn in Mansfield.
32:55There's no traffic out here.
32:57It's a nice quiet restaurant.
32:58Like most of the world.
32:59There is a Home Depot right there.
33:01We could take a quick look.
33:03I wouldn't be against it.
33:04We thought we'd take a quick look at Homey Deep.
33:06Yeah.
33:07You know, if they had some nice greens that were reasonable, I'm going to pick them up.
33:09Real greens?
33:10Sure.
33:11Fake little berries.
33:12Yeah, sure.
33:13Are you okay with this?
33:14I'm not okay with it for $60.
33:16Give me some real berries that rot.
33:18Yeah, I want rotting berries.
33:19To be honest, the reason I'm interested in Home Depot is because in 2016, nine years ago,
33:24you got the deal of a lifetime on a tree.
33:26I did.
33:27That's the tree that I still put up at the Christmas party every year.
33:29Bidding starts at $79.
33:30It's a tree.
33:31Do you have any of them set up?
33:32Do we know what it looks like?
33:33No, we don't.
33:34No.
33:35Look, they got one left.
33:36One left.
33:37If I don't like it, I can just bring it back.
33:38Before he takes his money.
33:40Come out of here.
33:41Come out of here.
33:42Come out of here.
33:43Round of applause.
33:44He bought a tree.
33:45Oh, ow.
33:46That's the key predators away from your garden.
33:47Yeah.
33:48One of my first pets was at a hardware store.
33:52Really?
33:53A piranha plant.
33:54One of those Venus fly traps.
33:56Yeah.
33:57You used to get poinsettias for a dollar.
33:58Yes.
33:59An untapped mine of poinsettias.
34:00Yeah.
34:01A dollar.
34:02That's incredible.
34:03And now you get quite a bit smaller poinsettias.
34:06Two for five.
34:07Bro.
34:08The poinsettia inflation is out.
34:10Yeah.
34:11You can get a 7.5 foot for $79.
34:13Is that a good deal?
34:14Dollar cleaning supplies?
34:16You know, dollar for comet, not bad.
34:18Do I need some more comet?
34:19I do use comet.
34:20I heard comet makes you vomit.
34:21Makes your teeth turn green.
34:23Comet.
34:24It also smells like gasoline.
34:25Comet.
34:26Will make you vomit.
34:27Comet.
34:28So take some comet and vomit today.
34:30Yes.
34:31It's only a dollar.
34:32It's 98 cents.
34:33They have them at Lowe's End at Home Depot.
34:35They're like one of those viral items.
34:37Oh, look.
34:38We got the Grinch.
34:39We got the Grinch.
34:40The thing is, like solar at my house, because it's so dark, like there's so many trees,
34:47I never recharge this.
34:48Oh, this is solar?
34:49Yeah.
34:50Do you see those people who project their Christmas lights onto their house?
34:53Yes.
34:54Look at how, when the lights are on, how inconsistently color temperature they are.
34:57It's kind of gross.
34:58Ugh.
34:59LED color lights have a little bit grown on me.
35:02I know as weird as that sounds.
35:03Just having that $49 tree that I've used for many years, it's kind of become Christmas.
35:07Those ugly, tacky LED lights.
35:09They look terrible.
35:10These are not LED.
35:11They're beautiful.
35:12LED Christmas lights are just the ugliest thing, aren't they?
35:15Look how these aren't even all the same color.
35:16John, Energizer or Duracell?
35:18They're both good batteries.
35:19Unless they have the A91s, it doesn't really matter.
35:21The A91s are the lithiums like we use for sound.
35:24Those are incredible batteries.
35:25He's got a wiggling nub.
35:28Why are you doing that?
35:30Because wouldn't it be better if his arm was better?
35:32But it is broken.
35:33Does this tree say to you Christmas tree or Easter tree?
35:36I've never heard of an Easter tree.
35:38Me neither.
35:39I kind of like the pastel-y colors.
35:40Yeah.
35:41Not for like my house, but for somebody's home.
35:43It's the pastel on white that's kind of making you think of this.
35:45Yeah, it's kind of pretty.
35:46I feel like we saw stuff like this back at the Christmas store.
35:49Did you miss that place?
35:50Oh, I miss it, man.
35:51It was good.
35:52I'd love to go up there.
35:53We would have made that an annual tradition had it still been around for sure.
35:55Do you do Christmas lights at the house?
35:57We do.
35:58We have incandescents.
35:59I'm kind of thinking about switching to LED because when the incandescent comes out
36:05and the whole strand goes out, and I know there's like,
36:08even like the strands I got are supposed to not, that's not supposed to happen.
36:12But that happens.
36:13I mean, it looks fine for you.
36:15You look up there.
36:16Who do you think would win on a seesaw?
36:18A bunch of little dogs or a big dog?
36:21I didn't know that seesaws were about winning.
36:23I thought they were about sharing the weight.
36:25EJ's actually going to grab these lights.
36:27Oh, incandescents?
36:28They're warm LED lights.
36:29Really?
36:30Okay, now I'm compelled.
36:31They're over there.
36:32Look at that one.
36:33That there.
36:34Steady lit vintage warm white.
36:35That's even better.
36:36You're right.
36:37That is better.
36:38I'm even okay with the warm white steady.
36:39Yeah, those are really better.
36:40You're right.
36:41I don't expect these ones.
36:42See, we got to an even better place.
36:44And I might get a set too, because I really like how those look actually.
36:47Are you guys actually getting Home Depot buckets?
36:48Yeah, they are.
36:49I'm getting one to put somebody's gift card for their birthday in it.
36:53We're ending up with vintage steady light.
36:56Yes.
36:57Because now that I look at the ones I looked at before, they look green to me.
37:00Whereas you look at this one, which is the one we're getting, they look really nice.
37:03I might supplement my tree with them.
37:05Add a few more lights, I thought it was a little lacking.
37:07Have you ever considered going ornamentless on the tree?
37:10Probably not for a moment.
37:11Only for an outdoor tree, I would do that.
37:13You could definitely convince me to just go like a strings of cranberries.
37:17These are gold.
37:18Was there any sale on them, John?
37:20I don't think so.
37:21But I like it enough that it doesn't matter.
37:23What do you pay for lights these days?
37:25Usually not 20 bucks a set, but these are really nice.
37:27But they should basically last forever since they're LED.
37:29They advertise balloons are here from Party City.
37:32They seem to only exist because offices will do office supplies.
37:35And people go and drop their UPS packages and their Amazon return.
37:40And copying too is still a big thing that enables us from people.
37:43540 keyboard and mouse combo. Save 25.
37:46Count easy button with any purchase free.
37:49Oh, they're by day. What the heck?
37:51All you get today is this chair.
37:52On Thanksgiving, you had to go in the app.
37:54Arcade City.
37:55What do you play on it?
37:56I don't know.
37:57100 games.
37:58100 unlicensed games, including checkers.
38:02A bunch of crap.
38:03For 20 bucks, you know?
38:04I'll always remember I bought that app games.
38:07Sega Genesis mini console from Staples on Black Friday 2016.
38:10I'm tempted.
38:11This really does have just about everything you'd want in a Genesis.
38:14It's like all the really best games of a Genesis.
38:16It comes with two wireless controllers.
38:18That's a great deal.
38:19And you know what I did with that thing?
38:20What?
38:21I threw it in the trash.
38:22Did you really?
38:23Such .
38:24Eventually, Sega released its own.
38:25Yeah.
38:26And it was much better.
38:27Party City.
38:28Do you remember that Party City closed?
38:29Yes.
38:30And you were super sad about it?
38:31They have kind of the remnants of a Party City.
38:32Party City.
38:33We were laughing when Nintendo Switch 2 came out and they were a little bit hard to get
38:36a hold of.
38:37Yeah.
38:38And we were like, you could go to Staples.
38:39You could go to Staples.
38:40You could go to Staples.
38:41And you probably could have seen that one now.
38:42Oh, you pay $15 for an item in here?
38:44Big win.
38:45I want this button so bad.
38:46Dude, you want an easy button?
38:48They come for free with most deals.
38:50Wait a minute.
38:51The prices start at $15 and they go down to $1 at the end of the week and then they reset.
38:55This is, they've taken that concept and staplized it and made it so that you can get excited about
39:00Staples deals with Amazon returns, which is what this is.
39:03Fascinating.
39:04It's more Party City than I expected.
39:05Yeah.
39:06There it is.
39:07There's more of a corner here than I thought.
39:09It's a real Party City aisle.
39:10This was what I was afraid of when Party City was going out of business.
39:13I'm like, where am I going to get my like plates?
39:15Where am I going to get them?
39:16And they got it.
39:17They got it right here.
39:18I bet what they did is they took the top 200 SKUs, the things that sold the most.
39:23Totally.
39:24And they put them in here and that's probably really smart.
39:26But to be honest with you, I had no idea Staples was doing it before today.
39:29They didn't communicate it to me in any kind of way that I could have known.
39:32Just kind of a trashy sign on the side of the building.
39:35And all it said was balloons.
39:36Oh, Minecraft TNT.
39:38It's actually a pinata.
39:39Shaq will sell you a projector.
39:40He will.
39:41He could try.
39:42I mean, I remember getting this for Gabriel for his birthday at Party City.
39:47So now I can just go here, I guess.
39:49Party City lives.
39:50Lives on, I guess.
39:51I'm surprised.
39:52The top 200 SKUs.
39:53Yeah, top 200.
39:54Probably a thousand SKUs.
39:55There's not a lot of reasons for the brick and mortar Staples to continue to exist.
39:58Yeah.
39:59And maybe having some balloons or something.
40:00If you put enough small ideas in and you let people know, like if they do that a little
40:04more like the wins thing, that's an interesting concept.
40:07Print your own custom wrapping paper.
40:09I'm picturing Jason Graves.
40:10That's incredible actually.
40:11Over his logo.
40:12And then mail something back to him.
40:15You just look at balloons and letters.
40:16Do they have a video game section and should we look at it?
40:19Like Party City Christmas.
40:20Do they still make film cameras?
40:21What?
40:22Really?
40:23I didn't even know.
40:24It's Kodak Gold.
40:25I didn't even know they sold this.
40:26What ISO is it?
40:27This is 36 exposure Kodak Gold ISO 200.
40:34Never thought I'd see it again in my life.
40:35Oh my goodness.
40:36That very camera that we all took like camp photos with.
40:38Yeah, exactly.
40:39I love this camera.
40:40You like that one?
40:41Mm-hmm.
40:42These are definitely like, my kids have a version of this.
40:45Yeah, yeah.
40:46Where do you go for processing?
40:47How do you get it processed?
40:48I think Fall River still has that one place.
40:50Oh, here's video games.
40:51There's not much.
40:52There's not much.
40:53That's not much, actually.
40:54You could buy travel locks.
40:56Buy three, get one free.
40:57Oh, the Binwins continues.
40:58Binwins has more dollar.
41:00Oh, Nina's like deep in it.
41:02Wow.
41:03This is the whole concept of this store.
41:05You have a bunch of these.
41:06That's interesting.
41:07It's half the store, dude.
41:08It's Binwins.
41:09What is all this crap?
41:10And why would I want it?
41:11You might find some good in here.
41:12That's why you come to look, right?
41:14Like, if you were in the market for like a baby activity like Florida.
41:17Like 15 bucks is in bed.
41:18Right.
41:19If you came on a different day where it was cheaper, not bad.
41:20Franky, we could have some date ideas.
41:22A few.
41:23A few.
41:24For when your anniversary rolls around.
41:25What happens is $12 today, but on Thursday it's $2 for any item.
41:29And you'll never spend more than 15?
41:31You'll never spend more than 15.
41:32And you just like put your hand in here and you come out with spaghetti.
41:37That's an Italian thing.
41:38Thoughts on chair?
41:39I'm worried it's going to break any minute.
41:42But what you're looking at here is what goes on the truck that goes to a company.
41:46Oh yeah.
41:47Up until a couple of years ago, my company would still get, occasionally send people to run
41:51to Staples to get office supplies.
41:52Every once in a great while when we're in desperate need.
41:55Yeah.
41:56And that's what it's here for.
41:57And it's the survivor of three or four different stores, Office Depot, Office Max.
42:01Yes.
42:02And now Staples is the only one left.
42:03Yes.
42:04Want to go home?
42:05I want to go home.
42:06I think that should be enough.
42:07Wow.
42:09Binwin.
42:10A true binwin.
42:11Now I just can't stop.
42:12Can't stop, won't stop.
42:13It's a whole bunch of Christmas books and pens with psalms and biblical quotes.
42:19Nursery decor hanger holder.
42:22Why would they return it?
42:23Remember I had the back pain.
42:25And this, this really relieved, uh, alleviated it.
42:28Let's see.
42:29The mesh, uh, really, it disperses.
42:32Yes.
42:33The, the pain.
42:34Take my doggy.
42:35Bye-bye.
42:36All right, John.
42:37Did you like Black Friday this year?
42:38I had fun.
42:39Would you ever go back to the Rent Them Outlets on a Black Friday?
42:42Never.
42:43No.
42:44But it was fun to go once.
42:45Yes.
42:46Never.
42:47Never.
42:48I want to be an angel on top of the tree.
42:52I want to be looking down.
42:54I want to look around.
42:55I want to be the angel on top of the tree.
