As a european i love the fact that you can walk around a Wal Mart parking lot indoors with sunglasses, shorts and rubber Boots, filming yourself and still not be the wierdest guy around. Even better, people don't even seem to notice.
We have had those lockdowns here too, at least this part of Eurozone where I am. So, this had somewhat effect on exercise. Now, I hope people can go outdoors. With their cameras, of course.

Hi Post10, I live in Scotland and and am hardly surprised to see a two-storey supermarket. I expected to be underwhelmed but was oddly happy that you found a ' blockage.' Keep up the good work and please at some point come and visit a small country with plenty of rainfall but is mostly made up from vertical surfaces. Norway would be good too.
When I worked as an apprentice plumber we did a lot of drain cleaning, tree roots and feminine hygiene products tied for the number one issues. Anyway, it was always such a pleasant experience watching the clog clear and the water go down. One of the reasons why I love your vids.
@@lordjaashin The bigger issue is likely the lack of disposal bins for feminine hygiene products in some places along with the taboo of discussing such things which leads women to flush tampons rather than putting them in the bin. Also general lack of awareness of what is and isn't flushable (e.g. baby wipes). If men had to use tampons instead you'd likely see the exact same issue at the exact same rates
@@BambiTrout women flush tampons even when there is disposable bins at their homes. what special disposable bins are required for tampons? just throw them in the garbage bin in public toilets. even grungy truck stop toilets have garbage bins installed in toilets. stop bringing up men in every discussion as if it excuses shitty behavior of women. you're literally creating strawman with "iF mEn uSeD tAmPoNs TheY wOuLd fLuSh iT tOo". this isn't 80s or 90s to have taboo about tampons. women period products is openly taught at schools. stop beating the dead "taboo" horse to make excuses for shitty behavior.

Hello. That was the strangest thing, seeing the birds flying around the store carts like that. Until they flew upwards to the roof. Anyway, take care and have an enjoyable weekend.
we have lots of these here in England as they work really well. Sometimes they have little green and red lights above the spaces to show you available spaces.
Dude - come check out our two-story Walmart in Albany NY. It’s legit two stories. None of that parking garage garbage! And the cart escalator is ALWAYS BROKEN.
@@amandavancpsti 😂 141 Washington Ave Ext. I mean, take it easy - it’s still a Walmart. 😝 More importantly, I’m the President of the Post 10 Fan Club, North East Region. We call ourselves “Post’s’” and our headquarters is titled, “The 11th Post.” Would you be interested in enrollment?
With this this store design the entire first floor is sacrificial in that flooding won’t impact main store areas. Plus it keeps your car cool in summer while you shop! They don’t have a Post10 on their staff to clear drains. Target also uses this design in built up cities
Wonder if that lift (elevator) stops working when it rains too hard? We have a store (not Walmart) with a similar design and some bright spark sloped all the drainage towards the lift well.
That's the closest Walmart to my house. I drive an extra 9 miles to the next store to avoid it. Minimal selection, an unreliable cart escalator, and the parking lot that smells like weed are just a few of the reasons.
He wasn't menacing. He was reminding them to stick to their excercise routine. I could enjoy a 43-minute video from post10 about how to play with birds in non-woodsy settings. I assume the birds see in the tightly interlocked carts much of the characteristics of the thick hedges they like to mass in at certain times of day.
Here in Britain we have had 2 storey supermarkets for quite a long time. There is a big Tesco, like the one featured, in Havant and one with a second floor of retail in Hamble. There is also a Tesco over a railway in Gerrards Cross. The only problem is when the escalator stops and you have to push your shopping trolley (cart) up the escalator! Thanks for posting.
Yeah, here in Aus you are more likely to get a sloped travelator than seperate escalators for foot traffic and carts. Or a giant elevator and a really long wheelchair ramp (our local Aldi). Also, that under building car park is big enough that if it was here, those pillars would have different colours painted on them depending on the section you are parking in.
They knew you were coming so they decided to flood the place :) That cart elevator is interesting, our shopping centres use sloped escalators which lock trolleys in place when going up/down.
For British, the ground floor is the parking lot, the shopping area is the first floor There is a store in Blackpool, where there is a car parking centre above them
There is a cart escalator in a store in Ottawa Ontario Canada, at a store called Canadian Tire... basically the same layout as this Walmart ... parking at ground level, store above it, with some street level stores
I live in Toronto and there’s a Superstore near my place that I haven’t been to in years… there’s a parking garage under it but idk if the store is 2 floors
I'm really glad you made this video since I'm from Sweden and have never been to the US I've never seen the inside of a Walmart so this was really cool to watch.
In my country, we have a lot of 2 story Walmarts and there's even a 3 story Walmart. It's surprising to see that some people find it rare. And we don't have cart escalators, we have like conveyor belts for people and shopping carts.
Should come to the UK, we have 5 story Primarks. It'll blow your mind. Plus we have two story supermarkets here too. Usually the ground floor is food, then the upper floors are home.
Thanks pal. Quite interesting to compare with the UK supermarket Asda. Which is owned by Walmart. Love your commentary, you have a very nice delivery and you're accent is nice
Here in the UK, our Walmart is called Asda. The one near where I live has a large outdoor car park & it's a 2 storey building. The escalator is like the step escalator but it's flat & is magnetised so the shopping trolley (it's a metal one) doesn't move until you get to the end, also has a lift.
This store setup has become popular in the UK too, although we don't have a cart escalators, just long shallow pitched ramps or the elevator. Post 10 needs to invest in some drainage rods for floods like this. 😜
I first saw a two story supermarket in Sarasota, years ago. It also had a cart elevator, I’d never seen before. It was kind of strange seeing all those birds there at the end but, loved it! Edit: here in my city, there’ are guards at the entrance to any store. You can’t enter unless you’re wearing a mask, except for small children.
The Midwest is usually the testing ground for these concepts. There is a Home Depot type chain called Menards. They have some 2 story locations with a cart escalator that can handle those huge carts that carry lumber and such.
We have a Sainsburys like that in Brighton Sussex where I live. Two storey building. Car park on lower floor with one long escalator that you stand on with your trolley and it takes you both up and down together to the main store.
WOW Post 10, that was very different and VERY interesting to. That must have been quite an adventure for you - shopping with all those people around and going on an escalator ! All those sparrows at the end - never seen so many here in England. Thanks for the video - stay safe :-)
No the. Was really good I could not find any flooding in my normal areas they really don't want the videos to happen again I guess LOL. But will keep trying
Wow! Did't know about this Walmart right in my back yard here in Boston area. Love the shopping cart escalator that is way too cool definitely a place I'm going to have to visit. Thanks for bringing this to my attention !
Hey Postie. A cart escalator? Now I have seen everything. You are the one who showed me. What exciting discovery will you find next time? There is a 2 story Wal-Mart close to me. I thought that you would get your rake and start cleaning the drain. Thanks for taking us with you. Stay safe now.
In the "I normally wouldn't have given this a second thought" category, I'd like to inform Post10 that we too, here in Toronto, have a 2-story Walmart. It's at the Dufferin Mall, close to the downtown core. Next time I shop there, I'll have to remind myself how privileged we are. Had no idea 2-story Walmarts were so uncommon. :)
I remember the Ames, or Ann and Hope store in Cumberland, R.I. had one those cart lifts from the basement/first floor to the second floor. The best thing about shopping there was watching the carts go up and down.
Hey Post, Awesome video! The carts are moved on a freight elevator under the garage that a lot floods alot, to answer your question. I've been here a few times. If your in the area again, I'd like to grab a beer with you. I live in Waltham
I liked the video of the two-story WM. In my part of GA, we've got zoining laws that prohibit parking garages and buildings cannot be more than four storeys tall, so, you're WM with a parking garage underneath was definitely a novelty. Thanks for sharing and stay safe!
I went into a 2 story Target with that same set up they had a cart escalator going up as well as down, the freight elevator was used to take a lot of carts to the second floor.
I work in a place called Bunnings (similar to Home Depot) here in Australia, has 2 carpark levels and the store is over 2 floors. No cart escalator, just 4 of those ramp escalators that your cart locks into. Basement carpark sometimes smells like pot too!
I work in one of these two story walmart's and to answer your question about the carts at about 5:41 if you see the yellow doors off to the left thats a cart elevator the carts are loaded in 3 racks holding about 5 carts per row
Albany, NY has a 2 story Wal-Mart. The lower floor is the grocery area, and the upper level is everything else. There's a cart escalator (which I last new was at least partially broken), but alas no flood in the parking lot.
We got a two story Menards here in Northwest Indiana ...the carts go on a long incline escalator the wheels have special grooves that hold it place while you ride up or down with the cart...it's like the people movers at the airport.
There's a 2-story Target in Nashua NH, with shopping on both levels & cart escalators going both directions. It's a former Lechmere at the Pheasant Lane Mall.
Over here in England we have Asda which is owned by Walmart. We have magnetic travelators. The cart wheels have magnetic boots around them so they don't move
The carts go slower on the escalator so you can get to the bottom before your cart and get it off the escalator. Also the carts at Walmart's like this suck because there's no bottom rack for your large stuff.
I'll have to stop by to check it out, after I visit the Wisconsin Dells, in a few weeks. I am going to visit the international crane foundation just south of the Dells, check out Devils Lake and make a trip up to the Center of the state. And work on my personal goal of putting on each and every one of the mini golf courses in the Dells. Clearance shopping is a lot of fun to check out a bunch of different stores both to and from the Dells. I purposely deviate 30 miles off route to visit Montello, WI as it's such a lovely and relaxing place to visit.
Hey post 10, in Lexington, Kentucky there is a Kroger store that have a basement where all the extra product is stored at and you can park on the roof of the building. And use freight elevators to move the product to and from the basement to the ground level.
Geez, you missed the most famous landmark around there -- the Hilltop Steak House sign. In the late 1980's that restaurant had the highest gross sales in one year of any restaurant in the US. It's defunct now, but the sign is still visible at 0:25. I ate there a couple of times back then; I thought it was pretty good.
We have a Target in Pittsburgh built the same way. It's on Penn Avenue in the East Liberty section of Pittsburgh. Has the cart escalator and all, too. You should come check it out.
I work for Walmart and that drain will probably still be clogged at Christmas. Cool to see a two-story store, though, have heard about them but never seen one. BTW, that chirping sound as you walked past the emergency exit was the notification that the battery in the door alarm was running down.
I used to have a two story Harris Teeter before they went out of business due to the Kroger merger, and it was built similar but the escalator went to the parking garage which was underground. It was in a building partially inside a former classic theater, which the front is still there due to its historic value.
Near me in the UK is a supermarket with a ramped escalator for shopping carts. The incline is pretty small and magnets in the floor cause breaks on the carts to activate.
Two storey stores are far more common in the UK. Our local The Range is on two stories for example. That's two stories of actual store though, in addition to a parking lot. Even the local Halfords and Homebase have a mezzanine level at one end.
I stopped at ASDA in England for 5 years, but my mom always compaired it to a K-Mart. Do they still slap their butts in the commercial to get the coins in the back pocket to jingle? (I haven't been to Great Britain for 25 years.)

I’ve seen grocery stores with the first floor for parking and second floor for shopping. This is a new one for me. Walmart stores are so massive.
Hi Post 10. A couple years ago I saw a Walmart in Washington FC with an underground parking garage. Good video
In the "I normally wouldn't have given this a second thought" category, I'd like to inform Post10 that we too, here in Toronto, have a 2-story Walmart. It's at the Dufferin Mall, close to the downtown core. Next time I shop there, I'll have to remind myself how privileged we are. Had no idea 2-story Walmarts were so uncommon. :)
I remember the Ames, or Ann and Hope store in Cumberland, R.I. had one those cart lifts from the basement/first floor to the second floor. The best thing about shopping there was watching the carts go up and down.
Hey Post,
Awesome video!
The carts are moved on a freight elevator under the garage that a lot floods alot, to answer your question. I've been here a few times.
If your in the area again, I'd like to grab a beer with you. I live in Waltham
I liked the video of the two-story WM. In my part of GA, we've got zoining laws that prohibit parking garages and buildings cannot be more than four storeys tall, so, you're WM with a parking garage underneath was definitely a novelty. Thanks for sharing and stay safe!
I went into a 2 story Target with that same set up they had a cart escalator going up as well as down, the freight elevator was used to take a lot of carts to the second floor.
When I lived in South Korea, there was a similar store called Lotte Mart and they had the same cart escalator thing!!!
On that site was a massive granite hill that they spent a few years blasting out and hauling away. You can see it on street view from about 2006.
I was wondering where the trucks were unloaded. lol Thanks for showing us!
I work in a place called Bunnings (similar to Home Depot) here in Australia, has 2 carpark levels and the store is over 2 floors. No cart escalator, just 4 of those ramp escalators that your cart locks into. Basement carpark sometimes smells like pot too!
I work in one of these two story walmart's and to answer your question about the carts at about 5:41 if you see the yellow doors off to the left thats a cart elevator the carts are loaded in 3 racks holding about 5 carts per row
Albany, NY has a 2 story Wal-Mart. The lower floor is the grocery area, and the upper level is everything else. There's a cart escalator (which I last new was at least partially broken), but alas no flood in the parking lot.
We got a two story Menards here in Northwest Indiana ...the carts go on a long incline escalator the wheels have special grooves that hold it place while you ride up or down with the cart...it's like the people movers at the airport.
Have never heard of a 2 story walmart before , thank for showing it
There's a 2-story Target in Nashua NH, with shopping on both levels & cart escalators going both directions. It's a former Lechmere at the Pheasant Lane Mall.
Two videos in one day👍🏼Keep em coming. Have a safe Labor Day Post.
funny, our IKEA is built that way too. interesting shopping cart escalator. Thanks for sharing!
I bet they time it so the carts move slower than the people on purpose so the people can get to the bottom and be there for when their cart comes out.
Cool! I had no idea there was a 2 story Wal-Mart. Thanks for sharing!
Ah Walmart where people’s spouses are also their siblings
I love how much fun you’re having with the birds at the end of the video
There is a three-story Walmart close to where my grandparents live. It is made of a two-story parking garage with the store right on top of it.
In Tampa we have a Publix grocery store built the same way. It has been here for several years. There is a major lack of space where it is.
Over here in England we have Asda which is owned by Walmart. We have magnetic travelators. The cart wheels have magnetic boots around them so they don't move
My local Walmart is a 2 story Walmart with parking garage underneath and shopping upstairs, and Target is the same as well. (Madison WI)
At the Target if you go look at where the gift cards are hanging you can watch them shaking back and forth slightly
The carts go slower on the escalator so you can get to the bottom before your cart and get it off the escalator. Also the carts at Walmart's like this suck because there's no bottom rack for your large stuff.
I'll have to stop by to check it out, after I visit the Wisconsin Dells, in a few weeks.
I am going to visit the international crane foundation just south of the Dells, check out Devils Lake and make a trip up to the Center of the state.
And work on my personal goal of putting on each and every one of the mini golf courses in the Dells.
Clearance shopping is a lot of fun to check out a bunch of different stores both to and from the Dells. I purposely deviate 30 miles off route to visit Montello, WI as it's such a lovely and relaxing place to visit.
Did not expect to see a cart escalator. Wow, the shelves are stripped bare just like all our grocery chains have been for the past year.
Hey post 10, in Lexington, Kentucky there is a Kroger store that have a basement where all the extra product is stored at and you can park on the roof of the building. And use freight elevators to move the product to and from the basement to the ground level.
In Leeds, England. We have a cart escalator where we ride up and down with the carts. The carts have magnetic brakes to stop them rolling away.
Geez, you missed the most famous landmark around there -- the Hilltop Steak House sign. In the late 1980's that restaurant had the highest gross sales in one year of any restaurant in the US. It's defunct now, but the sign is still visible at 0:25. I ate there a couple of times back then; I thought it was pretty good.
Weylu’s!!
Post takes us shopping in Walmart! Another first for me here in England. Thanks Post x
Would you like to be pen pals?
“This entire parking garage smells like pot.” 🤣🤣🤣 Lmaooo
We have a Target in Pittsburgh built the same way. It's on Penn Avenue in the East Liberty section of Pittsburgh. Has the cart escalator and all, too. You should come check it out.
I work for Walmart and that drain will probably still be clogged at Christmas. Cool to see a two-story store, though, have heard about them but never seen one. BTW, that chirping sound as you walked past the emergency exit was the notification that the battery in the door alarm was running down.
Thank you for what you do.
I used to have a two story Harris Teeter before they went out of business due to the Kroger merger, and it was built similar but the escalator went to the parking garage which was underground. It was in a building partially inside a former classic theater, which the front is still there due to its historic value.
this is the one i used to go to when i lived in somerville. weird store with that cart trolley escalator thing
When land/footprint is at a premium and you cant spread out, you spread up! 😀
Never seen a cart escalator before! Shops with parking below the shop are commonplace here in the Netherlands
Near me in the UK is a supermarket with a ramped escalator for shopping carts. The incline is pretty small and magnets in the floor cause breaks on the carts to activate.
Two storey stores are far more common in the UK. Our local The Range is on two stories for example. That's two stories of actual store though, in addition to a parking lot. Even the local Halfords and Homebase have a mezzanine level at one end.
There’s a 2 story Target here in Atlanta where the lower level is a parking garage. Cool escalator system for the buggies to get down and back.
Asda (Walmart) in Pudsey, UK has 2 floors of shopping - didn't realise it was so rare!
I know if asda, I have penpals in the uk
Same
I stopped at ASDA in England for 5 years, but my mom always compaired it to a K-Mart.
Do they still slap their butts in the commercial to get the coins in the back pocket to jingle? (I haven't been to Great Britain for 25 years.)
