- Someone's gotta go to these stores
to find this stuff out.
That person's me.
(beep)
Welcome back to another episode of Weird Shopping.
This time we're at Walgreens.
You guys voted up in the I-card
tellin me which store to go to next.
So many of you guys wanted me
to go to a Walgreens, CVS, or RiteAid.
So, we're here at Walgreens, let's do it.
I just picked up this cart here
before we start our shopping adventure.
Sad cart, just look at the wheel.
That's bad, dude, that's real bad.
So, when you're thinkin' Walgreens or CVS,
you're not really thinkin' too much
on the tech and gadgets side.
But they got some pretty sweet products.
This is like the As Seen on TV section.
I got a mini vacuum.
It's a smiley face.
It's not all that smiley.
It actually eats things up, too.
Woah, mini vacuum.
Floors, counters, rugs.
I'm excited, that looks really sweet.
So most of you guys know now,
I check out a lot of head phones and speakers,
so my hearing is kinda going,
it's on it's way out, I'm only 20.
But this product looks like it can fix it.
It's called the MSA, not NSA.
(eerie music)
But it's actually listening, so there
are no batteries required and this amplifies sound.
Looks like a hearing aid.
I don't know how this is actually gonna work.
Oh, it's rechargeable.
That's interesting.
Wow.
This air hockey table's probably gonna
be the last thing you'd expect to see at a Walgreens.
20 bucks, sure.
20, like hold up.
20 bucks.
For a mini-air hockey table at Walgreens.
Yeah!
A lot of you guys say the studio
looks a little like the strip club.
I don't really see it, but I know one thing's for sure,
strip clubs have laser lights.
We don't have that, now we're about to get it.
They sell this at Walgreens.
50 bucks, though.
Look at all the holidays covered.
Christmas, Halloween, Halloween's right around the corner.
50 bucks.
It better be worth it.
Now, I normally check out a lot a
headphones and earbuds and speakers.
We're changing the game up.
A TV antenna, 4K broadcast.
That seems a little like we're over delivering.
So, I don't know how much this thing is, but free TV.
Well, no, 'cuz you have to pay
for it first, but mostly free TV.
It wouldn't be a Weird Shopping trip
unless we found a drone.
This one seems a little interesting,
kinda like the Toys "R" Us one.
If you haven't checked that one out,
make sure you check out that episode after this video.
Seems like just a regular helicopter that goes up.
Obviously, 'cause that's what helicopters do.
- Oh, really?
(laugh track)
- And it says it's easy to fly.
I'll be the judge.
And I'm pickin' up silly string,
because for 4 bucks like, why wouldn't I?
We got a pretty good amount of stuff.
I'm actually really happy with this trip.
We got some really interesting stuff.
Let me go check out, we're gonna head back to the studio.
And actually check these things out, well.
So, in total I spent $147,
actually like $161 with tax at Walgreens.
That is way more than I have ever
spent at a Walgreens before,
and we actually got some really good stuff.
If you guys want to check out
anything mentioned in this video
I'll do my best to link it down below.
Some of this stuff is just really, really, really weird.
The first thing that we're gonna check out
is this sound amplifying headset?
I had to check this one out.
I don't know the As Seen on TV section
at all convenience stores is really poppin'.
This thing looked interesting.
It's a sound amplifier, it's women owned,
cause that's something on the box that's really awesome,
there's a rapid charger, I think this is like a hearing aid,
but not one that's custom fit to your ears.
Sound amplifier improves amplification up to 30x,
like yes, this might be the next generation
of earbuds right before our eyes.
So, this what it looks like.
You get a rechargeable stand.
Micro USB woulda been cool,
but it just docks right in there.
That's actually really cool.
Just docks right into the base,
ya pull it out, you're ready to go.
I'd imagine you'd want to get two of these
to complete the setup, I don't think there's Bluetooth,
there is not Bluetooth on this earbud, so.
To turn it on, it's really simple just hit the On button,
whoa, I can, oh, this is gonna be, this is gonna be crazy.
I can already hear it.
We have a dial right on the center that adjusts the volume.
We're at level four, so I'm gonna sweep that on down to two.
Don't know why I said sweep there.
And we're gonna try this on.
I feel like a secret spy.
Yo, I actually feel like a secret spy.
It's got that detective interrogation room kind of feel.
Like you're watching something on a court tape or something.
- Are you asking me a question?
- That was really specific I know.
Yeah, it actually's amp, Ow, ow, that, that,
alright I'm taking that out.
That actually amplifies the sound, and that's only mode two.
Let's raise it up to level four.
Rest in peace, my ears.
Yo, whoa, yo.
At level four now, this is quite the experience.
Wow, that is really loud.
I'm gonna do something probably against my doctor's wishes.
They do the ears, right?
It's like a hearingolog-, no.
What's the science term for the doctor
that checks out your ears?
Let me know in the comments.
We're doing something against his wishes.
We're gonna play some music with it on.
Oh, I can just hear it echoing.
I'm just gonna play a little DJ Snake, and try this out.
Alright, we're gonna go max volume.
Alright, sounds good.
Ow, no, no, ow!
That is like max volume at 2 times in one ear.
That is extremely uncomfortable.
I'm just, I just hear ringing.
I see rings too, that should not be happening.
Next up is something that I hope doesn't make a loud noise.
It's this rechargeable, no,
it's not a rechargeable vacuum cleaner.
It's an As Seen on TV, emoji vacuum cleaner.
I don't know why I thought it was rechargeable.
It looks like a USB vacuum cleaner.
It's mini, we got a smiley face on here,
I think you can get a few different faces.
That's cool, your vacuum cleaners
now have emoji's on them faces.
Alright, so it's battery powered.
And right down at the bottom you can see
that's where you got your bristles, your fun stuff.
And just an On, Off switch.
Alright, seems like it's got a little sucking action.
So, what I want to tryout now,
just to demo this for you guys,
is crush up some Cheese Nips,
my favorite snack of all time.
Good luck Cheez-It.
Check.
We're good to go.
And we're gonna see
if the emoji vacuum cleaner can suck it up.
Pretty easy task.
(vacuum whirring)
Oh, I hear it, I hear it.
(crunching)
Whoa, are we just spitting it out?
Yeah, it's like coming out the backend here.
(crunching)
Can it not handle all these Cheese Nips?
Alright, I think we just clogged it.
Guys, let me know in the comments, am I doing this right?
Does it feel right?
(crunching)
Whoa. That just really sucked it all up.
Alright, let's turn this off.
It did half the job of sucking it up.
Where, oh, oh.
That's where the Cheese Nips hide, in the bottom.
It actually works, which I'm really surprised by,
but anything larger than a Cheese Nip
you're pretty much out of luck.
Like a screw, it will screw this thing up.
Next up is something I'm really excited for.
This is an indoor TV, or an indoor HDTV antenna.
Basically were covered, we can start getting some channels,
and I don't know if you guys have been subscribed
for a long time, but I haven't actually owned a TV.
Which is kind of crazy, cause if this actually works,
this TV down here is finally gonna get some love,
and we're gonna get some free channels.
Well, they're not actually free, cause I paid for 'em.
But let's check this out.
So, I've seen a few of these in my lifetime,
and I've never actually had any luck with them.
So, hopefully today is the day.
Damn, we get some metal.
Wow, did that just, did we break it?
No, we didn't, of course we didn't break it.
We're gonna fix it, this is Keaton the builder here.
So, you pretty much just plug in this antenna to the wall,
or your cofax.
Do I even have cofax here?
Uh, I'm gonna have to look for that.
Let's get this setup in the meantime.
I don't think this thing takes Netflix.
It definitely doesn't, but one of the offers
you get on here, it's setting it up with Sling TV,
I know what that is.
Wow, you get a few channels.
We get NBC, ABC.
I think that's CBS, FOX.
You get like seven channels, sounds good.
Sometimes my mess-ups actually work out in my favor.
It's not a cofax cable.
It's just an antenna board.
So, let's pull this tv on up.
We're gonna screw it into the back.
Antenna in.
I'm actually really happy this is included on a tv for once.
Because, I'm now checkin out an antenna.
Most of the time, you know, you just hook something up.
Now we actually need it.
It says storms can easily knock out
cable or satellite signals.
So, if I live in a rainy spot,
it's probably not the best to have this.
I finally got the antenna set up.
I don't actually own a tv, so this
is the best that I could do.
But, I think I got it right, so let's try this out.
It's actually really easy to set up.
I don't actually own a tv so this will be a big sup.,
oh my, we did it.
We did it.
We got channels.
Alright, let's see if we got another channel.
Oh, even volume.
I don't know what channel this is.
It's coming in a little pixelated, a little distorted,
but it's free tv, I can't complain.
Alright, it's not 100% free,
but for the most part it's pretty free.
PBS, that looks actually clear.
Okay, moving the antenna, no that is a no go.
You gotta keep this in one spot.
That would make sense.
It's lookin pretty good, I mean I got the antenna
put in the middle of my studio right now.
So, I'm sure if I move it to like a window or so,
I could pick up every signal in LA.
The quality looks good too.
Free tv, who would have thought?
Time to get things a little more fancy in the studio.
I have a ton of fun LED lights, but I don't have any lasers.
This is some decorative laser gun.
It really fits around the holidays,
like we have a Santa on the box,
a ghost, a bat for Halloween.
We're pretty much covered.
Where's Thanksgiving?
Like, do we not have a turkey?
We be, we would be covered.
I could just flip this on, leave it on
for the rest of the year, and be good to go.
Showin my spirit, or showin that I celebrate a holiday.
So, this is what you get in the box.
Basically, this is meant for lawns.
So, if you have a lawn, got some grass,
you put this in, you can prop it up,
and point it towards your house
kind of getting the full effect.
But, we're gonna do one better.
I'm gonna hold the gun, just kidding there's a base here.
That's sweet.
So, we got the steak.
Not the one you eat, the one for your yard,
and then the base one if you don't have a yard.
Plug this in, let's see how this goes.
Alright, here we go.
Powered it on first.
(clicking)
Come on, why don't you work?
I think we broke the Santa laser gun.
That's what we're callin it.
Guys, I've been reading through the instructions,
and I think we broke it.
This thing was 50 bucks, so the good news is,
I'm gonna be getting my 50 bucks back at Walgreens.
The bad news is, I wanted to turn this place
into a nightclub.
It was on for like a quick second.
Show it.
It like literally turned on for a very quick second.
(rewind music)
No, alright, let me try one more time.
Cool. (beep)
There's power being delivered to this ac port here.
When in doubt shake it.
I'm really upset.
Just disappointment, it's a disappointment.
This is a fail.
Moving on from one fail, we might have a second fail.
It's another drone.
Comment down below right now if you can tell me
how many drones there's been in
this season of Weird Shopping.
We've had a drone in almost every single episode.
First person to get it right, I'll pin.
But, alright we got another drone, it's a helicopter.
This one, the cool part about it is,
is it says it's easy to fly.
That's really what I'm lookin for, an easy to fly drone.
Nothing with any fancy tricks or stunts.
Just need somethin that I can easily fly.
Alright, we got a helicopter.
Nice shiny red helicopter.
And then the remote, I think we even got some extra
propellers in here just in case you crash it.
Always nice when they include those.
So, here is the controller.
The cool part about it is,
there's actually a charge cord built in,
so you don't even need to go visit a wall.
You got it all right here.
And, let's see if your boy can fly this.
Whoa, whoa, alright, whoa.
That thing has got some spirit.
I think I let off the throttle there.
So, I'm just gonna let it go.
Whoo.
I already know how this is gonna go,
so I've given the helicopter a little bit more room,
like we usually do.
Let's see how this goes.
Alright.
Just, it seems like it's falling to it's death.
Give the helicopter more juice.
I'm hitting the l and r buttons here.
Whoa, yo that thing, that's the first drone ever attack me.
Yeah, controlling this isn't the easiest.
Let's try to give it one more flight.
You've got this.
That was a lot of fun.
I need a new drone.
Bonus item time.
So, this is actually something I didn't expect
to see at Walgreens.
An air hockey table.
20 bucks, like I gotta check this out.
And, since it's just me here today,
I'm gonna be playing with myself, no not in that way.
Just, be playing air hockey by myself.
Wow, this is a really nice table.
20 bucks, I was expecting some cheapo stuff.
We got the kit down here.
Batteries, those fell out.
Got some nice plastic guards, this is like a proper set-up.
Air hockey at Walgreens, who would have thought.
It looks like some assembly is required.
Just give me a sec, I'll get this.
I'm gonna get this right so we
don't have another drone incident.
(scary music)
Rest in peace Mr. Drone.
So, I got it all set up.
Maybe you guys can hear that there's
actual air being blown.
It looks really good.
It's built really well.
Before I drop the puck here,
you even get two which is kinda nice, I mean, 20 bucks.
Let me know in the comments right now who your
favorite hockey team is.
Mine's gotta be the Blackhawks.
Their probably gonna, why did the air stop?
Sweet, let's do the puck drop.
Alright, I'm playing against myself.
Gonna see how the puck moves.
Yo, that's some solid movement.
That puck is real agile.
I feel like a hockey commentator right now.
Whose gonna win this?
Is it Keaton or Keaton?
(cheering)
Grab the puck from back here.
To Walgreens, well done.
You crushed it.
(cheering)
Scored again.
This bonus item, pretty crazy.
That's Weird Shopping at Walgreens.
If there is one item on this list that's my favorite,
it's gotta be the tv antenna.
If you thought I forgot about the silly string, I didn't.
Let me know in the comments which item was your favorite.
This was awesome.
Shot outs, I want to give a huge shout out to Flobateer
and JB Dragon for having my notifications on.
If you guys want one, make sure you just subscribe.
Ring the bell, that's important,
and let me know in the comments so
I can give you guys a shout out.
Tweet me at techsmart if you guys find any other
weird stuff in any of your favorite stores,
and I'll see you later.
Bye.
We're getting ready to go to the gym.
Lot of people on the go, they wear a hat, ya know.
But, I don't think I've ever seen anyone bringin a
skipper's hat to the gym.
Aye, aye captain, all aboard the train.
Wait, no, all aboard the ship a gains.
