OMG! I thought I was going to die laughing at the thought of you stalking BJ’s robot and interviewing the employees about negative side effects! You have a delightfully twisted sense of humor! Great video, as usual!
As a BJs employee i found out exactly what the robut is for. It travels the store and takes pictures of the store shelves and those pictures are sent to their main headquarters so the higher ups can see the condition of the store. Thats its soul purpose to take pictures .
Just big brother - did you know Amazon removed 1984 and so did Kindle - I am not sure if they are owned by Amazon but our oligarch overlords don’t want anyone having any awareness of what’s going on.
Whoever designed the robot is...EVIL GENIUS. That company will never have to worry about paying retirement because no employee is going to be able to stay long enough to get it. Is in robot language that whistle means "See Ya. "
We had a local auto parts store that had a looped tape recording that was sent through the PA system. It would randomly say "Security check in aisle 6"... or whatever. If you were the only one in aisle 6, you'd wonder WTF is going on. I complained about it and others must have also, because they got rid of it. Maybe it drove the staff crazy as well.
May want to look for Bass Pro Shops and Cabellas. They are usually friendly to overnight stays, especially if you buy a little something in the store. Cheers!
Hi Matt, I think Ford dealerships owe you overnight stealth parking anytime anywhere! Just for the fact that you've had so many problems with your Ford van! Thanks for another great video!
Yeah that's why I felt no guilt about it whatsoever. Also, at least 20 other people dropped there cars off there and leave them overnight, so its a common thing I guess.
I mix different spices together in one container just like you did. The only thing is sprinkles are for ice cream or some kind of dessert. They always have sugar in them.
Another good, informative, video! We have Costco and Sam's Club in Texas for bulk stuff. The quality is good, but you have to have major storage area for sure. I love the idea of parking at car lots if you have the right kind of van. That robot would for sure drive me crazy if I was working there. Christmas music immediately after Halloween is bad enough!
I enjoy your content. I like your laid back attitude. Why don’t you make coffee in your van, it would be a lot cheaper. There are companies like Ecoflow who sell power stations with an accessory to hook up directly to your battery to charge the power station. Then it would power a coffee maker and electric blankets. The electric blankets that plug into 120 ac use very little power. Two ideas that might make it more comfortable for you.
I forgot to mention that the accessory is called an alternator charger so it charges the power station while the engine is running. Your cigarette outlet supplies maybe 150 watts while the alternator charger supplies 800 watts.
I also really on coffee shops for the wifi and breakfast, so I don't mind paying for the coffee. I did, in fact, have a coffee maker but used it so rarely in the van I just got rid of it.
Yeah, I was thinking that you were using the coffee shop for the Wi-Fi. I just need that hot cup of coffee as soon as I wake up. I’m retired and I I have a camper van for traveling, I love it.
I think the only way to buy in Costo or BJ is to have a member get u a gift card, then u can shop. That robot thing would freak me out with that whistling. OMG. I would def quit the job. hahaha. Hope ur week is going well and finding good parking.
BJ's isn't worth it. I reinstated my membership after I let it lapse way back in the early 2000's and half the produce I bought was semi fresh, but goes bad due to not eating it fast enough. I learned to pre prep and freeze, but in the end, you're better off at a regular market. I love your channel btw! I'm in Mass too and I think you're beyond brave to camp in this weather, especially in the Berkshires! Stay Warm!
BJ’s , Sam’s club & Costco are members only. The only reason I have one is because of military discount and the gas. But I do buy if I have a party or holidays. it’s great for families
The robot is for inventory. Bonus benefits are employee morale and to baffle customers. (Yes I made that up). I needed that laugh dude...punch it in the face🤣🤣 If you really wanted a BJs membership, I'd look for a discount code of coupon. Honestly, I can't see much use for one living in a van. I uses to buy water filter cartridges way cheaper than Walmart but they stopped carrying them so I'm done with my membership. With the membership you can clip digital coupons to make some of the prices better than other places, but then you gotts store the bulk items. I did get a couple killer deals on tires and installation. Not sure how the prices compare nowadays.
There's no way I would be in the N.E. in the winter, I would head far south,Florida, Georgia, or Alabama. It's far cheaper and the weather is so much better to.
I swear these companies have a committee that works overtime in order to make shopping experience more annoying. A robot making a loud cooing noise like some big tropical bird.
I generally travel in Canada. I have stealth camped at Canadian Tire a few times. I parked on the side of the building near the service department. I arrive after closing and leave early. Never a problem. I tried it once at a GM dealership too. No problem.
Filters are an easy change and you can do it yourself and save money. I’m sure someone on UA-cam has made a video about it and Walmart has filters of all kinds. Also do you own a pair of jeans? You’re too young to have checked out on pants. lol
Its 2024, i wonder if the sound of that robot whistle is specifically engineered to make your mind want to keep shopping, or considering etc. It's done with commercials blatantly, why wouldn't it be done with an "innocent robot"? I mean, you can]t get the sound out of your freakin head......beep boop
@undertheradarvan Amazon or autoparts store also has usually same as engine air filters fyi. Love the channel by the way. Always enjoy the daily antics of regular life.
3:00 why are you upset about the robot? But i think its a waste of money for the stores. Soon enough stores will know what you selected via camera, chip, and product placement. You will pay for everything as soon as you walk out the door with chip scanning at the door. It will be very convenient for the consumer. The downside is that they will know your store account holdings from when you walked into the store, if you put more in your cart than you can afford than expect security to check you before you make it 10 feet past the scan out. If you don't like it, than don't shop there. But places like Costco have already proved that prices can be much more affordable by creating limitations on who can enter. The more affordable prices will drive honest shoppers to them and concentrate the thieves to the coemption.
Hey Matt know you love pretzels 🥨 Snyder’s makes crushed sourdough pretzel pieces that are flavored - they are AMAZING- I LOVE the cheese ones but there are lots of flavors. Any pretzel fan should try them. 🥨🍻
Love your sense of humor…so dry….just like your seasoning. I have a feeling your channel will blow up (in a good way).
thanks! I wish
OMG! I thought I was going to die laughing at the thought of you stalking BJ’s robot and interviewing the employees about negative side effects! You have a delightfully twisted sense of humor! Great video, as usual!
I really needed that laugh. I couldn’t stop laughing when you kept trying to talk and you could constantly hear it in the background.
it must have chirped 700 times while I was there

Are you serious? I thought it was for scanning prices.
We love the lights inside your van!
They are pretty bada$$! thanks!
That ending was great, I got a good laugh out of you stacking the whistling robot. Keep up the great videos 👍
Whoever designed the robot is...EVIL GENIUS. That company will never have to worry about paying retirement because no employee is going to be able to stay long enough to get it. Is in robot language that whistle means "See Ya. "
We once put Rudolph antlers on the robot at S&S..the manager flipped his sh$&@
No bro, don't mix that stuff. lol

Nice video once again! I love all the old stomping grounds! Be safe in your travels!

Another good place to stealth is auto repair and tire repair shops.

Warehouse clubs are intended for families & such. I'd tell you to get out more, but... You do get out more than most people do. 🤣 Enjoyed the video.
😂😂
I couldn’t have said that better myself.
just never had a reason to go there I guess

Just so you know, the cabin air filter actually filters outside air coming into the vehicle, so your cooking will not effect it....
I actually didn't know that, thanks!
I hate that whistle too! They should replace it with a vicious barking dog recording.
I was thinking cat sounds
That little robot would have tweeted my curiosity too! Nice video as usual.
I like that you were determined to figure out just what the hell was going on with that robot lol
I wonder if it was reading inventory
apparently it is just for reading inventory and taking pictures

The robot kept making me want to hollar, POLLO 😂 they probably leave it plugged in to silence it.
Love your videos
thanks
LOL! The robot! So funny 😂
I visited him again… next video
I think the only way to buy in Costo or BJ is to have a member get u a gift card, then u can shop. That robot thing would freak me out with that whistling. OMG. I would def quit the job. hahaha. Hope ur week is going well and finding good parking.
I think bird sounds would have been better! Thanks dude!
@undertheradarvan FYI I'm not a dude 😎

Ty for sharing ❤

Lol, the clothes part was funny. As a woman its usually the exact opposite! Tons of size 6 jeans but no 14!
If they don't have any in stock they can easily call up autozone or advanced and order one. So they just didn't feel like messing with it.
We're you making fun of yourself at the end with the robot 😂👍
Dollar tree has chopped onions frozen. BJs is a bulk store like Costco or Sam's Club, requires membership.
I didn't even know dollar tree sold food
Read the shelve labels. There will be a unit price....no need for calculator.
Liking your channel... I see it growing ✔️
thanks
It’s an inventory robot. Makes the noise when near humans to prevent a collision
well now that makes sense
Birthday cake sprinkles on chicken, you might be onto something there.

Good video! Maybe walk by Mr. Robot and accidentally unplug the annoying monster. 🤖👀
There's no way I would be in the N.E. in the winter, I would head far south,Florida, Georgia, or Alabama. It's far cheaper and the weather is so much better to.
I wish I could head south
Starting to like the Ford Transit
The transit is great, its just had a lot of electrical/powertrain issues I've had to deal with.
pay attention to "unit" prices. not total price...
LOL THE ROBOT
Got some extra hickory seasoning
I think I killed the part of my taste buds that recognize hickory

Can't you spend the night in a rest area on the highway?
there's like 5 in all of MA
remove that huge air vent over on the roof and the ladder and would be much more stealthy
I liked the video..what made you waste 2 hours on the rooms?🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I was waiting for it to stop charging, I wanted to see if it was really just a hacked Roomba (see the underneath)
Matt, your a size small. How tall are you
I think employees just learn to tune the Robot noise out.
they seemed pretty numb to it
🥊 🥊 🥊 🙋🏼♀️
Those lights have got to go decent content but unwatchable with those freaking lights
That robot sound would drive me insane it was almost too much listening to it in the video what on God's Earth are they thinking😅
Right?!?! Can't imagine how the employees put up with that.
Filters are an easy change and you can do it yourself and save money. I’m sure someone on UA-cam has made a video about it and Walmart has filters of all kinds.
Also do you own a pair of jeans? You’re too young to have checked out on pants. lol
I should wear jeans more often ey? thanks for calling me out! Sweatpants are just so comfy
@@undertheradarvan I think you’re a really cool guy. Not calling you out in a bad way. 🤗
Robots following you around! What next, guns mounted on them ready to shoot you if you try to shop lift something! Weird!
that day is coming
If you're cold just put on some long underwear
That sound is totally unnecessary, plus it is probably watching everybody too.

Buy cabin airfilter at Walmart and swap yourself.
Google it takes 2 seconds.
Sugar sprinkles as a spice your too funny, man.
will keep my eye out of that next time I'm at Walmart
@undertheradarvan Amazon or autoparts store also has usually same as engine air filters fyi.

haaaaa that robot sound is terrible!
I think bird or cat sounds wild have been better
You can be hit with trespassing charges which can be almost $1500 dollars if you’re caught 😮 😊😊
I’ve car camped a lot on rock climbing trips and I’ve never gotten the knock. I have tinted windows but do not block my windows.
leave the robot alone
I just wanted to tip it on its side and see the bottom for a sec
Hey Matt know you love pretzels 🥨
Snyder’s makes crushed sourdough pretzel pieces that are flavored - they are AMAZING- I LOVE the cheese ones but there are lots of flavors.
Any pretzel fan should try them. 🥨🍻
Think I've had this, they can be hard to find. I had trouble finding any pretzels at all in some grocery stores down south
