"You can re-enact Ghost". I loled. Your delivery is on point.

I love your channel. Don't let negativity keep you form putting out content. Look forward every time you have something new.

aside from ikea, target's probably my fav store to just wander around in. i'm rarely tempted by more than a couple snacks, but home depot is where things get really dangerous. the moment i walk in, i hear the theme song in the back of my head and just start loading up a cart with lumber. the possibilities are just so limitless with all the materials they have...

Inside the mind of a frugal person. I liked the video.

I'm one of the few that still buy planners and make my to-do list in a notebook. There's something satisfying about crossing it off a list after it's complete :) Glad that you are back!

“ you need to get rid of stuff.” I totally agree. Storage bins just encourage stockpiling junk by putting it out of sight. - I talked to a Keurig salesman who said they have come out with a biodegradable cup. I have not seen it in stores yet.

BEAT THE BUSH ON A BIG RUN!! Keep up the content and good ideas I’ll keep watching

This video came at the right time….right when I was out and about to cave in and spend money on lunch, rather than eating at home….you inspired me to not spend unnecessary money

Speaking of not being tempted I remember going to a store with no shopping list and being frustrated that I can’t find anything useful

This is so funny, today my hubby and I went to Bloomingdales (NYC) to browse and bought nothing. The store is absolutely beautiful.

I totally clicked with your point when you said, "that actually sounds fun, but only for a minute" when referring to the stained glass LED bulb!

😂 We think the same. I have not walk out with anything from a Target in over a decade. Buying storage bins is like buying more junk to store junk!

Stores are supposed to offer towels, but you may only need to buy them twice in your life. When you leave your parents' home, and when you add a few children to your family. I've been using mine for ages, too. I have a couple new ones stored, but so far I haven't had a need to break out the back up supply.

Great video! Good reminder to put logical thinking before impulse buying. Keep up the good work!

Wow this was eye opening BeatTheBush! Thank you! l love your channel.

I like to go in and look for markdowns. I got a bunch of grass-fed butter for $2 a pound a few days ago. Best butter I ever had, and less than half the price of the store brand.

You are so funny; you say "My towels are discolored but I use my things ........." "I am wearing this for many years ........." I like your being frugal! And thank you so much for teaching me how to position your glasses (ie: behind your ears/head) when you are not using them. I was having huge problem with losing my glasses because I was putting them in purse, etc.

I like the folding camp chairs for sitting outside. Lightweight, easy to store and transport, last a long time

My husband grew up without pets. We got 2 cats 2 years ago for our son, and my husband adores them, and he was genuinely surprised how fond of them he is. They are good for your mental health, regardless of the cost.

I mostly walk through stores/malls (except for grocery stores) for exercise and window shopping and people watching !

BeatTheBush......A Legend who is bold enough to swim against the current !!!

I go for specific items and enjoy a walk throughout the store just for the exercise. 🚶‍♀️

Lots of good tidbits in this video. Loved it 👍🏾👍🏾

I almost always shop knowing what I want and carrying a list if more than a few items. So, when I go to Target, the only big box store in my town, I start by asking the people at the service desk where the item(s) I am looking for. So, they say such and such aisle. I look there and look and look and look but do not find it. So, I scour the store for an employee and find one on the opposite side of the store. Inevitably, he/she does not know the department I am searching in, so he/she calls someone to help. After waiting 10 minutes or so an employee comes over and starts looking in the same places I already have looked, they do not know where anything is! I come up with nothing except the loss of an hour and a half, but I sure save at Target. You are one of the most honest, thought provoking and enjoyable people on KZfaq so keep up the good work.

The only thing I buy at Target is a pack of G Pilot pens 0.38 which is hard to find in other stores. Thanks, Target!

NICE!!! love the internal monolog glad im not alone :)

I always end up coming out with an extra hot wheel whenever I hit Target lol but that's my little hobby. Thanks for this kind of content, helping build a financial mindfulness.

cool video! you should do this for every store xD. why are dish washer and laundry sheets bad? what do you use to wash your dishes?

I really enjoyed this. Thanks

Subscribed. Keep clobbering it!!!

I didn' t think about the fact that lawn chairs desintigrate. I've only just ever thrown them out and just bought another without really thinking about it. Thank you!

I got an adapter for my soda stream and use a 20 lb tank $20 refill at Airgas last me 9 months. Those soda stream refills are also $20 only get 14 oz. 95% savings with a 20lb tank.

Awesome video!

Amazing video 👍

I love your videos because you make "fun" videos and why do you make "fun" videos??? Because you are a fun kind of guy! I walk through Target when I walk at the mall and I tend to become immune to buying anything at Target--I only go for just the walk thru. Nothing at Target seems to interest me.

i have same towels over 30 years still in good condition rarely buy clothes and silverware too.

Good vid. I'd be interested in seeing what you actually buy, and a couple of meals you make with the 1/4 1/4 1/2 plate

We see your great discipline, and it's well commended. It's not wrong or bad to indulge or reward yourself. What do you enjoy? That should be the next video.

I also window shop at my local grocery routinely. I checked for the prices to see if I can get it online cheaper, and check if it's healthy enough and not loaded with tons of sugar or preservatives.

Love this.

I remember being blown away when I got my first 42" TV. My past TVs of my childhood was a 19" then 24" when I got my first job. I'm extremely frugal but I love that TV.

I'm part of the "walking into a store and walk out with nothing" club! Target blows! Your next challenge is to go to a H-Mart and walkout with nothing.

We think alike BtB, hope to reach your boss level of FI soon! Keep up the great content!! What's something that you have an irresistible to spend on but don't necessarily need?

I usually only need one thing at target... and end up never going there, so I just keep wearing the same pair of stained short😅

Frozen vegetables are arguably better than fresh. The frozen vegetables are flash frozen straight after being picked so will be more fresh than the so called fresh ones in the shop which have been sitting out for a while. They also tend to be cheaper and obviously last longer.

Francis I have gone back to writing in a journal with a pen 🖋️ instead of phone ..Found the slower process more mentally satisfying📝

Your insights: A+

Thanks BtB! I've been waiting for a video like this! So many gems dropped. Really good point about non-stick pans. Don't be afraid to eat some more fruit though!

I keep using my towels until they get holes in them... and then they are for drying my dog after a bath :)

The ultimate window shopper. I’m much the same way but a bit less extreme. I’ll buy a need or convenience item on occasion

Hmm, fabric softener damaging the neurological system is news to me. Definitely need to cut back on the sugar too. Heck I need to clamp down on all these bad habits of taken on since the lockdown.

I usually find it quite difficult to even buy what I need. But one thing that happens is when I leave the dressing room after trying on the one thing I need, I see the things other people did not buy and left with the dressing room staff. Very often, I'm like "I love it, where did this come from? I need a medium."

Curbside is the best for just getting what you need and not getting tempted. They bring it out to your car for free no matter how little you buy.

You can make your own laundry detergent. It’s nice and fragrance free and very affordable.

love this😁

I love Target. It is easy to spend $ if you don't have self control which I do. I would love videos on quality, long lasting brands. Anymore it seems most things do not hold up, especially if purchased online from Amazon imo. Frozen vegetables from what I've heard from nutritionists are actually fine if you want to eat healthy & need convenience. There's a common misconception they're not healthy but often times they have more nutrients bc they're flash frozen right at harvest. Just have to make sure they don't add bad sauces or sugar in.

Ugh Target is so overpriced these days. Rarely do I ever find a good deal with coupons or clearance anymore. I find that Free Assembly from Walmart and a couple of clothing lines from Meijer are stylish and cheaper than stuff at Target and Kohls

Cast iron lasts forever (generations) and if seasoned properly, is non-stick. Also no harmful chemicals. Even Teflon is not safe at high temperatures these days and was very unsafe decades ago.

I have a problem over-buying at Costco. Whenever I go in to buy one item, I still end up spending over $100 worth of goods.

Seems like Marie Kondo and you would agree on tidying up. Just finished her book, no I haven't cleaned my room yet.

You can use shop kick app. You can earn walking in target store and any other store.

You saved me a trip today! Thanks! I rarely go as they cater to the 24 to 35 age group and have it perfectly clear that those of us over 70 are really not welcome.

This was a good video idea lol i always walk out with at least one snack 😭

I like window shopping for the colourful decor to get ideas, I feel somewhat triumphant when I leave a store empty handed

I often go window shopping and only buy if I absolutely need it or is a good deal. 😊

Words of wisdom, I respect the pushback against consumerism and disposability.

I tend to get exhausted at physical stores and buying much less because it's so tiresome to compare and calculate prices. Now that I have a car again I try to look online and make a list so I buy something when I am there. I hate buying something without knowing it's the cheapest possible per unit of measurement. 🤪 I do LOVE frozen vegetables and meat and everything else because I can help myself to it without a time pressure and I can buy a year or two in advance. Also great against inflation. 😁 Oh, and those ingredients usually come pre cut and pre peeled and clean.

The ghost reference got me 😅 lol

5:04 What do you shoot? 😏

So funny! 😂 Well, ya coulda bought a new nonstick pan, if you needed one.

Good quality olive oil single source is more delicious than butter and a drizzle on toast with a pinch of sea salt is really nice

Towels in my house. Go from bathroom. Then to kitchen. Then to garage!

I just go to Burlington or Ross, and pick up stuff on their clearance..super cheap. I'm just an opportunist buyer. Like the vulture that goes in for the kill. That's what the banks do too, increase the interest rates until businesses can't pay, and buy pennies on the dollar. Utterly ruthless.

Ha ha.. I use the small plastic bags from the vegetable department for my trash also.

Eggs not for eating but for testing? What's the egg test?

Prepper Princess will solve your problem of having to use laundry detergent. Just ask her. I use a blob of vinegar with a capfull (not cup full) of laundry detergent. Vinegar white vinegar. If you want to see it fuzz satisfyingly , add baking soda but not very much

Teftlon pans are awful for you and the environment. Invest in a good steel wok, sauce pan, and soup pot; they should last you a lifetime or more. Idk what it's made of but Ramsay uses some kind of weird nonstick frying pan that I think isn't chemical coated. If I remember right, the frozen vegetables are better because they are frozen "shortly" after harvest, so the nutrients don't degrade; then again, people will end up cooking them so the heat will degrade some of the nutrients anyways, but at least you theoretically start with more nutrients. Cheap eggs for testing? Lol I'm curious. I like free range eggs :)

Don't get nonstick pans at all. I prefer my food without the microplastics. Also, a well seasoned carbon steel pan will form a hydrocarbon film and make it nonstick anyway.

"After I pass 30-35 or so" lol you look 28!!😆😆😆😆

The pop up toy looks like fun. No need to waste money on bubble wrap 😁

Nice! How about Home depot or a Best buy next?

My mind pattern now for these last five years has been. I need something does someone I know have it and will they lend it to me if they don’t or won’t is it at Goodwill is it at eBay is it at craigslist? Is it ad online goodwill is it at any thrift store at all, is it at dollar tree?

For the salmon calculation. Pink vs sockeye (red) salmon. 24 oz/16oz=1.5. 1.5×1150=1725, which is higher than 1660. So even though sockeye has more omega 3 per serving, overall the pink salmon going to have more overall omega 3...1725 vs 1660...and you get more calories. So pink salmon, is cheaper and get more bang for your buck. So at this point buying sockeye salmon is mainly for the taste preference.

I have a pet dog & he is worth every penny!! I didn't get one for the longest time bc of cost, but the opportunity presented itself & I don't regret it. I do go to low cost, walk-in vets though (About $400/yr for shots, flea/tick/worm medicine) and do spend a little more to get him better quality, less processed food (about $30/m). Also I got a little, 'non-shedding' dog as little dogs are cheaper overall and less mess from poo.

Dude really really wanted those cadbury eggs.

For toilet paper, do you use a bidet or do you use old newspaper?

The richest man is he who does not need anything.

Prepackaged foods do tend to be high in sodium, yes-but most of the issue is the lack of potassium which acts as its counterbalance. Both are necessary for cell function-sodium acts outside the cell membrane in electrical signaling, and potassium acts inside. Think of them as the yin and yang of electrolytes; keep them balanced and you shouldn't have an issue.

Cat litter, if you only have one cat, a box can last for weeks if you keep up with it. Otherwise if outdoor cats, you can skip it entirely.

I use case iron skillet. It last me a lifetime

Be careful with the Henckels you find in such places as Kolhs or Target as the knives aren't the made in German ones. It's a lower grade knife.

You're a modern-day Ben Franklin BeatTheBush! You know that wise saying of his: "A fool and his money are soon parted", well its obvious you ain't no fool, all the contrary! 😊👍I have grown wiser since subbing Prepper Princess, Bobby Parrish and his FlavCity channel and of course you.

Fun for a minute. 😝

You didn't spot anything on clearance, and still not buy it?

Very based advice

I do that all the time

Forget the ad for Target... What I want to know is how much does Patagonia pay for the product placement of that fleece jacket? Is Patagonia a stealth promoter of KZfaqrs? I notice a lot of vloggers wear prominent Patagonia logo'd attire.

They are apparently going to close some locations.

Yo bring back the "moooo" sound que when you say moomoo :)

4:59-5:05 😂🤣
