Monday, November 3rd, 2025.
0:24
today is going to be driving around the
0:26
central Florida Orlando area looking for
0:29
some
0:31
posth Halloween deals for Halloween
0:34
decorations. Also, I'm going to decorate
0:36
my yard for Thanksgiving
0:39
and also possibly get some more stuff
0:41
for Christmas. But I have decided to go
0:45
into some Thanksgiving decor in front of
0:47
my homestead because it's still a long
0:50
way off till Christmas. So, Thanksgiving
0:52
shopping, eventual Christmas stuff, and
0:55
post clearance Halloween might be
0:58
happening, but I'm just going where the
1:00
wind blows. I'm inviting you to join me,
1:02
shall you? In about 2 and 1/2 weeks, I
1:06
will be getting on a plane and flying to
1:08
another international destination.
1:12
And I will be gone for almost a month. I
1:15
will not be returning until one week
1:18
before Christmas.
1:21
So, my plan is to put Christmas stuff
1:23
out for that week and leave it up till a
1:25
couple days after New Year's, maybe a
1:27
couple days before New Year's, probably
1:29
a couple days before New Year's, cuz I
1:31
most likely will be hitting the road on
1:33
New Year's Day. So, let's say my
1:35
Christmas decorations could be up for
1:37
10, 12 days and take them down a couple
1:39
days before New Year's. Put them up a
1:41
week before when I return from my
1:43
international country later this month
1:45
and I'll be gone for almost 4 weeks.
1:48
Very confusing. But I figure from now
1:50
till then to when I leave in two and a
1:52
half weeks, I can go ahead and put some
1:56
Thanksgiving stuff up there. There's a
1:58
This is a beehive of activity right
1:59
here. Look at this. Oh, wow. Those are
2:02
big ones.
2:04
Those are good size. They're getting
2:05
their getting all the little goodness
2:08
from inside the flower petals there.
2:11
Yes. Serious bees.
2:18
All right. Hey, going to get going.
2:18
Going to meet up with the buddy, him and
2:20
I, here. I'm departing here. Going to go
2:23
over to his place. I'm departing the
2:25
back side of 7-Eleven.
2:28
And we'll do some thrift shopping.
2:31
Thrift shopping, store shopping, big box
2:33
store shopping,
2:35
and just see where the day leads. All
2:37
right, have made the commute over to the
2:39
Mall of Millennia area. We are at Hobby
2:42
Lobby. Crafts, home decor, frames, and
2:45
seasonal. Jim is here. Hey. Hey.
2:48
>> It's beginning, well, it's already been
2:50
beginning to look a lot like Christmas,
2:52
but also looking for some Thanksgiving
2:54
stuff through here.
3:00
Oh, we got the Oh, it's a Grinch blow
3:00
mold.
3:00
>> Blow mold.
3:01
>> Kind of wish it was a little bit bigger,
3:03
though. That's cute. Lights up. I like
3:06
all the Grinch stuff.
3:08
>> I'm trying to go traditional Christmas.
3:11
Grinchmas.
3:13
>> It has Max.
3:15
>> Yeah.
3:20
I definitely want to get some
3:20
Thanksgiving stuff before Christmas
3:21
season. Still a long way off till
3:23
Christmas.
3:25
>> Oh, that's cool.
3:28
>> That's good. What if I could put that on
3:30
my porch?
3:31
>> No. Indoor use only.
3:35
>> I mean,
3:36
>> you could put it outside. Probably
3:38
wouldn't last very long. Oh, there we
3:41
go. That could be some Thank That's some
3:43
Thanksgivingy type stuff.
3:49
All right. This could fall into the well
3:49
fall because it is fall, but this could
3:51
fall into the Thanksgiving type of decor
3:54
through here. And this could work, too.
3:55
These the little little uh they got the
3:57
truck with the pumpkin and everything on
3:59
there. Actually, going to get a wreath
4:00
right there for the door for the
4:02
Thanksgiving season as well. I mean,
4:04
pumpkins are Halloweeny, but also fall
4:07
and Thanksgiving as well. Look at this
4:09
thing.
4:12
Yeah, pretty much a nonjolo lantern. So
4:14
if you get rid of the face on a pumpkin,
4:16
it becomes not Halloween, it eventually
4:19
turns into Thanksgiving. So basically
4:21
you have pumpkins for Halloween and you
4:23
have pumpkins for Thanksgiving. This is
4:25
kind of neat, too. You like connect the
4:27
two of them there and it puts this is
4:28
like a three-dimensional type of thing,
4:31
which is
4:32
kind of cool. That's neat, too. I like
4:34
that. To give thanks. And these might be
4:36
cool [music] along the pillars where my
4:38
porch is. these like strands of flowers
4:40
and things. Very colorful with the with
4:43
the fall colors. I'll get that as well.
4:47
Getting an assortment of things here. I
4:50
don't know. I'll just grab it and see
4:51
see how it looks when I get home. I'll
4:52
put it all up.
4:58
So, think about get one good thing about
4:58
owning a house. You can always put stuff
5:00
up for the holidays. There you go. There
5:02
you go. You got the merry Grinchmas
5:03
there on the
5:04
>> little apron machine.
5:07
>> Grinch hot sauce. Yeah.
5:09
>> Wonder what the but the mean machine's
5:10
probably the hottest, right?
5:12
>> Jalapeno hot sauce.
5:15
>> I wonder if uh that's any correlation to
5:18
Justin Scard's new hot sauce. How do you
5:19
think that compares?
5:21
>> Justin's pretty hot sauce.
5:22
>> Really good.
5:23
>> Yeah, this whole wall is all Christmas.
5:26
It's interesting. This is all 50% off.
5:29
>> You would usually you don't see 50% off
5:31
stuff until after the holiday, but it's
5:34
like everyone's already out shopping for
5:35
it. But 50% off. Wonder how that Wonder
5:38
how that works. Why would it be half off
5:40
now when people haven't even really
5:42
started buying for it yet? 50% off
5:45
Grinch stuff and it's I don't know that
5:48
that's unusual. It's got to be some kind
5:50
of a marketing ploy for this. Do they
5:52
bump the price up and then lower it down
5:54
50%.
6:01
Get yourself a Grinch bath rug right
6:01
here. Very Grinch stockings tie. Look at
6:05
that necktie right there. There's a
6:08
whole entire aisle of just Grinch stuff.
6:13
The Grinch ornaments.
6:15
Grinch plushes.
6:18
All right. This is pretty good, too. You
6:19
got the ornaments here that you could
6:21
stick into the ground. I might have to
6:23
get a couple of these because this would
6:24
be kind of good for when I put my
6:26
Christmas stuff out into middle of
6:28
December leading up to Christmas. But
6:30
for now, Thanksgiving is going in my
6:32
yard starting today. All right. We got
6:34
some more metal signs. Got little
6:36
[music] snowman here and a couple of
6:38
ornaments. These are $30 each, but
6:40
evidently they're 50% off. So, $15 to
6:44
$16 each for those. I don't mind if I
6:46
do. We've got some candy swirly candy
6:49
cane stuff over here. Candy canes.
6:53
Little like snowflake patterns. A Merry
6:55
Christmas sign. All right. This is This
6:56
is exactly what I was looking for. A
6:58
really oversized
7:00
oversized one there. How much is that?
7:02
Is there a price on it? 46.
7:04
>> So $23 with the discount with the 50%
7:07
off. I like this. But that that doesn't
7:11
stick in the ground though. You got to
7:12
like put that on the side of Got to hang
7:14
that on the side of something.
7:15
>> Or we could put a
7:17
>> One thing about celebration though. It's
7:18
never got Well, Snopes. You put You
7:21
change that to Snoop. I put a P on
7:25
>> We were just having a discussion. Can
7:26
you have too many Santaas? Is there such
7:29
thing as too many Santaas? What is this
7:31
guy?
7:34
Never have too many Santaas.
7:36
>> Thank you, toy soldier.
7:38
>> You're welcome.
7:38
>> Is he a soldier or is he just a
7:39
>> He's a toy soldier.
7:41
>> Yeah,
7:41
>> he's a nutcracker.
7:42
>> He's a nutcracker. That's what he is.
7:44
All right, loaded up.
7:46
$300 for all this stuff. Got a lot of
7:49
stuff. Also got a Mrs. Claus blow bowl.
7:52
Everything's loaded in the back of Jim's
7:54
car here. Now, the Christmas stuff
7:56
probably will not go out for a while,
7:57
but I'm going to start putting up the
7:59
Thanksgiving stuff when I get back to
8:01
the house.
8:02
There it is. Everything I got 50% off.
8:06
And they said once December hits it'll
8:08
go to full price. But right now because
8:09
it's early everything is half off. So
8:12
pretty good pretty good deal for all
8:13
this stuff. I mean I got a lot of metal
8:15
signs. I got the snowman.
8:18
Got the milk and cookie sign.
8:21
Another snowman down in there. So yeah,
8:26
good stuff. And just adjacent to the
8:28
Hobby Lobby property is a Costco.
8:32
Let me check out what they got in
8:33
Costco. I do need a couple more things
8:35
for Thanksgiving and Christmas, too. I
8:38
still haven't got anything on discount
8:39
for Halloween, either. Oh, there you go.
8:41
It's a Florida shuderie cutting board.
8:44
Well, maybe not shuderie, just a cutting
8:46
board.
8:47
>> Figure out where there's Orlando. All
8:49
the theme parks. There's 95 75 I4
8:52
Lakeland Tampa semi.
8:55
Ah, Venice.
8:56
>> I'm I want to go look for shark teeth
8:58
here.
8:58
>> Menopi
9:00
right there. Doc Hollywood. That's where
9:02
that was from.
9:04
>> That's cool. 25 bucks.
9:06
Oh yeah. And of course
9:10
seasonal stuff. Seasonal stuff. A
9:14
plenty.
9:15
Don't really have a ton of Christmas
9:17
stuff. They do have some lights and
9:18
things like that. Got some inflatables,
9:21
some LED string lights,
9:24
things like that. Wrapping paper,
9:43
We're going to get a little snack over
9:43
here. I realized these prices were like
9:45
this. $1.50 for a hot dog. All beef hot
9:48
dog and a 20 oz soda for a buck 50. What
9:52
the heck? That is so inexpensive.
9:56
A double A double chocolate chunk cookie
9:59
is a dollar more than I expected.
10:01
>> Oh yeah.
10:03
>> Not going to get a cookie. But look at
10:05
that thing. That's a huge cookie. That's
10:07
massive. That's over an inch thick. Is
10:09
that the pizza we're getting there? The
10:11
slice of pie. Yeah.
10:13
>> Wow. So, two pieces of pizza, two
10:16
drinks, two hot dogs bucks.
10:19
>> Seven bucks.
10:19
>> Look at this thing.
10:21
>> Good little sandwich right there.
10:25
>> We're not We're not buy We're not buying
10:26
any. We There was It was a fail on
10:29
Christmas stuff, but at least we get
10:31
some cheap snacks.
10:34
Oh, yeah.
10:37
You could just get a 20 oz soda by
10:38
itself with a refill for $79 or $79.
10:42
$79. What I'm going to say, you could
10:44
just show up in here and eat a hot dog
10:46
every day for next to nothing if you
10:48
wanted to. Got smoothies for $2.99.
10:51
Can't get over this. Quarter pound plus
10:53
hot dog for $1.50. And it comes with a
10:56
soda and an extra refill for a buck 50.
11:00
Wow.
11:02
I haven't been at Costco in a long time,
11:03
but Jim was like, "Let's go and get a
11:05
dog." But okay.
11:07
Again, didn't find any Christmas stuff
11:09
that I was hoping, but that's a cheap
11:12
dog. All that relish on there. That's a
11:14
lot of relish. Yeah, I am impressed by
11:15
the
11:17
the size the dog and the the pizza.
11:22
Wow. That might be the most inexpensive
11:24
food I've seen in a long time at a
11:26
place. What year is this? $7.50 for all
11:29
this. What year are we living in right
11:31
now?
11:33
>> 50. That's the worth the price of the
11:37
How much does a yearly membership to
11:38
this place cost?
11:40
>> Under 100 if you get the cheap one.
11:41
>> So like 10 bucks a month.
11:44
>> You load it up. Both loaded up.
11:46
>> That's my hot dog taco right there.
11:48
>> I mean, even if you never bought
11:49
anything except for food in here, the
11:50
$100 a month would add up if you ate
11:52
this every day. Water for a quarter or
11:55
for a buck out of a machine. Not just
11:59
water, but premium water.
12:02
I wonder what the difference between
12:03
purified and premium is. That says
12:06
purified.
12:08
This says premium for a quarter.
12:12
That's great.
12:14
Good deals in here. We're going to
12:16
peruse around here for $16.
12:20
A huge bag of inshell unsalted
12:25
pistachios.
12:27
Look at the size of that thing.
12:28
>> Salt and pepper.
12:30
>> Look at this. Three [snorts] lbs. Dang.
12:33
Shake. Shake them.
12:35
>> Shake. Shake.
12:35
>> Get Get cracking.
12:38
Pistachios. Protein power. I had no idea
12:40
they still made fruit by the foot. I
12:43
used to eat this back in like the late
12:45
80s. Get 48 of these things for 11
12:50
bucks. 48 rolls for 11 bucks.
13:02
$13 for all 90 pouches of fruit snacks.
13:02
>> Wow, I'm seeing the appeal of this
13:04
place.
13:15
These are some truly twisted fruit
13:15
bites. Get some holiday K Cups.
13:20
72
13:21
holiday blend K Cups for $45. Am I
13:26
reading that right?
13:51
Is that really $9 for eight pot pies?
13:51
If so, that's amazing.
13:54
This is kind of blowing my mind the
13:55
prices on this stuff. 10 bucks for 72
14:00
bagel bites.
14:03
These are really good.
14:06
>> Double pepperoni.
14:08
>> That's how thick that pizza is.
14:10
>> For 12 bucks.
14:23
Bunch of mini tacos here. $13 for 72 of
14:23
these
14:23
>> approximately
14:24
>> approx. So maybe there may be there may
14:26
be there may be 65 of them in there.
14:33
But I go to so many conventions, theme
14:33
parks, baseball stadiums,
14:38
festivals, things like that where three
14:41
of these mini tacos would be like five
14:43
bucks.
14:45
>> So, I'm have my my brain is having a
14:46
hard time wrapping around these prices.
14:50
>> Shows you how overinflated.
14:52
>> Yeah. Shows you how much profit these
14:53
places are making off of us.
14:56
Frank's in a blanket.
15:00
Got everything in there. pork wieners
15:02
and a puff pastry topped with bagels.
15:04
You feel it? Like I have literally gone
15:07
to Publix and bought this for $5. Got
15:11
this exact thing in a container that
15:14
big.
15:16
5B.
15:17
>> Four bucks for the mac and cheese. Look
15:20
at that.
15:27
>> I need to get out more.
15:27
>> Everything you need to do. Street tacos.
15:30
Six bucks.
15:31
Look at this.
15:44
Okay, that's a little more. That's That
15:44
makes sense. Okay. I was thinking six
15:45
bucks for sashimi, but $5 for this. Look
15:48
at the size of that salad. That Caesar
15:50
salad for five bucks.
15:57
I think I got to get on this Costco
15:57
train. How much for one reel?
16:01
>> Got changed for 100.
16:03
>> Look at the size of that.
16:05
>> Six bucks.
16:05
>> Six bucks. 599.
16:07
>> 3 lb 10 oz for that pumpkin pie. And
16:10
that is one of the best you'll ever
16:11
have.
16:17
>> Pumpkin.
16:17
>> That's a lot of pumpkin pie.
16:18
>> It is. You better have a crowd to eat
16:20
it.
16:22
>> Too bad they don't sell a pumpkin pie at
16:23
half
16:24
>> for three bucks.
16:26
>> Yeah. Well, I'd still pay six bucks for
16:28
a half of that. It's massive. Organic
16:31
Mickey
16:32
Mickey apples.
16:40
Wow. You can buy something with Mickey
16:40
on it, which is rare for under $20.
16:45
Nope. It's only $3.79.
16:47
Does WDW know about this? Do they know
16:50
about these? This is a relief wheel. If
16:52
you need relief, that's what you do. You
16:55
lay your back on the wheel like that.
17:02
I do like having extra batteries.
17:02
That's a lot of batteries.
17:08
This is the Costco brand. A little
17:08
cheaper. Kirkland. Yeah.
17:13
One day I might need these Gorilla racks
17:15
for my storage shed. Probably not, but I
17:18
just use totes. But maybe for my garage.
17:30
100 bucks.
17:30
Five shelves.
17:36
Over to Lowe's now. Heading in to
17:36
Lowe's. Curious to see what they have in
17:37

17:40
decor for the holidays, whether it be
17:42
Halloween that just passed or currently
17:44
for Thanksgiving and the upcoming
17:46
Christmas, but I've heard Lowe's has
17:48

Stay tuned. Got some Christmas Christmas
18:46

18:48
It's a lot. It's a lot. And right next

door, Walmart Super Center. Heading into
18:53
the home side. See what they got inside
18:55
Walmart. Ah, snacking around the

Christmas tree. Look at all these little

Debbies here with the Christmas tree
19:02
cakes on them. Oh, yeah. Not really
19:04
seeing a lot of Thanksgiving stuff, but
19:05
Christmas is complete. I guess the only
19:07
thing Christmas about Elvis Stitch is
19:09
the little piece right here on there.
19:11
Got a lot of different Santaas. You got
19:13
the Coca-Cola bear down here. Other
19:16
Santaas. So, you got the hippopotamus
19:18
over here. Lots of inflatables. I don't
19:20
think I'm going to go down the
19:21
inflatable rabbit hole. But definitely
19:23
like definitely enjoy going down the
19:27
the rabbit hole with the blow molds. In
19:29
fact, there is another Grinch that was
19:31
different. This one I haven't seen yet.
19:33
There's another Grinch blow mold right
19:35
here, which I really like. I got a
19:36
couple of inflatables. Got Pluto here
19:40
and got Max over here from the Grinch. I
19:43
stand corrected. Not inflatables, blow
19:44
molds. I was looking at inflatables when
19:46
I said blow molds. I think blow molds
19:48
are coming back. They're everywhere now.
19:52
Blow molds.
19:54
>> $2.
19:55
>> Yep. To go with the other stuff that I'm
19:57
not going to show yet. Still haven't
19:59
decided when I'm put my Christmas stuff
20:00
out, but I'm going to put some some of
20:02
my Thanksgiving stuff out tonight. Not
20:04
that much. We couldn't find a lot of
20:05
Thanksgiving.
20:07
Not as much Thanksgiving out as I
20:08
thought there would be. There's only one
20:10
store that really had Thanksgiving
20:13
Lots of Christmas, though.
20:16
All right, it's Goodwill time.
20:20
Goodwill time.
20:23
All right, got some records over here.
20:25
Look at this album cover. Like that. The
20:28
guy with his uh his dog on the boat
20:30
right there. You got Larry McFaten.
20:33
That's like 70s right there.
20:35
>> Larry McFatten.
20:37
Like this right here. What lake that was
20:39
taken on.
20:46
That's a great picture. I don't even
20:46
know what album that is. I don't have a
20:48
name on it or anything.
20:50
Let's
20:50
>> see here. More as well. Tabernacle
20:53
choir.
21:00
>> This is a flower vase that looks like a
21:00
fish. I ended up getting I'm going to
21:02
end up getting this owl. It's like my
21:03
spirit animal before coffee.
21:06
You can see it's that is kind of neat
21:09
though. It's like a fish of the owl. I
21:11
guess it's like a vase of some sort.
21:14
>> $3.99.
21:16
Did you use that?
21:19
>> Kind of goes with the orange cabinet
21:20
countertops.
21:22
It's true.
21:23
>> All right, back home now. Didn't really
21:26
get a lot of yard decorations for
21:28
Thanksgiving, but might get a few more
21:30
things over the next week or two
21:33
before I depart to my next international
21:35
destination.
21:37
Then I'll pull this stuff down
21:45
and then when I return it's Christmas.
21:45
I think I am going to get a little bit
21:47
more though.
21:55
Got a couple other things arriving for
21:55
Thanksgiving. But for now, just a mellow
22:00
mellow amount.
22:05
That's going to do it for today. Thanks
22:05
for watching. I'll see you in the next
22:06
video. I bought a lot of Christmas stuff
22:08
today to go with the Christmas stuff I
22:11
bought. But for now, Thanksgiving.
22:15
Thanks for watching. I'll see you in the
22:16
next video. The vlog is over.
