Technically, you can go no contact in any store provided you don’t want to buy something they keep locked up. Just place the items on the belt, give them cash, take your change and bags, and walk away.
@@Esskay_ If you buy alcohol, drink/eat anything while in the store, or simply get an item which has it's weight slightly off, you will need to interact with the cashier. Same goes for wanting to refund something.
Well I mean they were walking through the store with cameras and he was facing it talking. People tend to stare at people doing that. Might have even been a couple who knew who he was. I doubt the tampons had anything to do with it lol
you can add mulitple accounts onto a prime account bill for free. that's on you. you can have up to one adult (assumed married I suppose), 4 teens (I assume kids), and 4 younger children (again, kids) all on the same prime bill with no extra charge
XO But, ya, what Clayton said. I know at least one other adult and 4 teens (12-17) can be added. I don't know where it says about younger children. But, I suppose they're applying the same legal rules as how young you can be to get a bank/credit account.
Yeah thing is it's pretty easy to steal an item or two from Wal-Mart for that reason. The one person can't really watch everyone during a busy time. And it doesn't have advanced sensors like this Amazon shop. On the other hand I imagine such elaborate security would make it too expensive to build a Super Center size Amazon store but who knows.
@@Sifer2 A way people could steal in self checkouts is to wait until it's busy and when the cashier isn't looking, put your expensive items on the scale and ring them up as a cheap produce item. As long as your receipt isn't checked when you leave the store you could probably save 30% (or more) doing that.
@@Sifer2 You dont even need to steal an item or 2 at self checkout. Just load up a cart with groceries and walk out the front door. As long as you have nothing to set off the alarm your all good since walmart employees are normally lazy and dead inside
Turns out there was no AI or algorithms to detect what you picked up, they just had over 1000 people in India watching you through the cameras as you walked around the shop. It worked just like any other grocery store but they moved the cashiers to a third world country. Completely dystopian
@@adryjan2808 This is not true, they used people in india for cases were the ai failed so it could be improved. Apparently it was way more than expected
It's actually far worse because all of your internet search results will be targeted towards someone who has an interest in buying large cucumbers and condoms in the future.
You can store them in your pocket or bag, then walk around and then pick up your second item. I don't think anyone going to be stalking you as you walk around and nitpick everything you're getting.
I've seen men buying tampons and stuff for their wives or transmen buying them for themselves. I don't think much of it, it's just like a box with cottony thingies inside.
And that's how you know he's actually a decent guy. He thinks he can get away with it and he knows he's doing it just for a review. But he still feels bad about stealing.
Well he's not a girl haha. I'm not either and a lot of the time I accidentally use the word "tampon" when talking about my fiancées pads. When I was a teenager I thought the pads were called "Tampax" but then years later found out that was just a brand and the pads are literally just called pads.
Amazon returns usually just tells you to keep the item and give you a refund or send you another item. I ordered a fiberglass RC helicopter canopy and Amazon sent it via USPS in a bag instead of a box and the canopy arrived crushed. I was refunded my $50 and told to keep the canopy. I was able to glue the fiberglass canopy back into shape so I got it for free. Amazon listed an item as delivered but I never received it. Amazon sent on a new order overnight. Amazon rep told me if my original order ever arrived I could just keep it. A week later my original order arrived. Amazon has standard of standing behind its products that seems to be disappearing from this world. I do like the customer service Amazon offers.
Their customer service is like at 100. Their treatment of workers is more like a 2. I dont know but I could imagine someone is getting punished for this. I once never got my 2TB ssd and I called them and they said just wait another day or two and asks neighbors, if it still isnt there they will just send another one and assume it was stolen. I could imagine that either the deliverer got into trouble or someone at the packaging station.
F Sch I worked in the largest Amazon warehouse supposedly in the world here in Phoenix. The warehouse is a mile long with single up stairs break room and restrooms that can take as much as 7 minutes to get to. The rules were that in a shift you got a 30 minute lunch that started and ended at your work station meaning your 30 minute break started where you were and you had to back at your workstation no more than 30 minutes later. We also had to 15 minute breaks that had the same rule so if you needed a quick drink of water or snack you would only have a few minutes at the break room. Of course I was always stationed about a half mile from the break room. Yeah Amazon knows that if you don’t like it you can leave because there are always other suckers out there that will serve them. They only paid something like $13 an hour at that.

Unexpected item in baggage area. (Always makes me laugh that one does; I imagine the machine with a really shocked look on it's face, "Waaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!").
Not saying they are stupid. What I am saying is a lot of them don't want to take the time to learn new technology and still have dumb phones which prevents them from using this grocery store even if they learned how to. Other than that the comment I made was sarcastic in that it implies old people annoy me, they really don't.
Their umtimate secret is that they have 1000 employees hard working behind the cameras figuring out every person's basket and tagging the items and charging you for it.
Uhh 🙄 but w en you show then your scanning you tag thing and wen you garage it and just walk out it puts it in your cart and do you even have a phone 📱 or a amazon account?????
0:33 "the only store where you do not have to have any human interaction whatsoever" ** gets given a shopping bag by a human within the first 36 seconds of the video**
Yea, even if the store isn't crowded you're still bounded to run into other people. Like they said and showed in the video they still have some employees there like ID checkers or guiders/helpers. It seems like the true "no human interaction" shopping experience is still just the original online shopping Amazon started out with, lol. Just shop online, don't even have to see the delivery guy most of the time.
i refuse to believe that some people actually thought linus (having wife and children) doesnt know what a tampon is and traveled to another country to steal from amazon without their ^permission^.
Google: That video has cursing in it we must demonetize it. Also Google: This video has someone stealing in it but it is from our competition and it does make them look bad yup this is advertiser friendly
60% of business expense is in labor costs... let that sink in for a moment..... Also, if you are a amazon prime customer you are top 35% income earner in the country. These people are less likely to shoplift because they can afford the product.
Thanks for the content, I showed this video in my AP US history class as "technological informative content" and I got a 40/40. Linus never ceases to deliver 10/10.
UrAvgGamer self checkouts have security tho. and some self checkouts you need to give a person your bag and they go and scan them, and then you can pay.
The point is you don't need to check out at all. Just pick up the items and leave, no cashiers, no assistants, no dudes at the gate saying "let me see your receipt", it just charges your Amazon account.
Repeatedly shocking and destroying multiple PC components due to moronic use of a PSU cable, then blaming an innocent company, possibly ruining their product's image, should result in a "10/10" ban for that said small tech channel.
Apparently Amazon was just outsourcing the cashiers to India. Employees in India would watch the cameras and charge you for the items. So lame for a multibillion ‘tech’ company
In Sweden, maybe even all Scandinavian countries, you have the option to shop at a normal grocery store with a handheld scanner if you'd like. Just scan as you are putting stuff into your cart. At the end, there are dedicated lines for you to bag your stuff and insert the scanner into a machine to pay, no human interaction required.
The ones I'm talking about are different than self checkouts found in the USA. This one you scan as you go then when you are done you just walk out with your cart.
AngryNerds100 the store must have a ton of security cameras, they will know what time thry thief bought the stuff, check the cameras, arrest him and give him a huge fine or jail.
there is a little known fact about amazon (the online store): returned items very rarely make it back to the store. They are sent to a company that manages returns, and although some of those items will reappear on amazon as "used" or sold through other parties on the marketplace, most of it end up in discount stores that specialize in selling items that usually are written off, leftover stock, or items returned from retail stores for whatever reason. Reason is simply that Amazon doesn't have a system to process returns at all, or any logistics in place to restock their warehouses with returned items, and because they have such a high throughput of orders they flat out don't care about returns - anything that goes out is just making space for new items coming in

Presence of a crowd draws a crowd.
"The only store in the world that you dont have to have any human interaction" I shop in ASDA in the UK every week without talking to a single human.
Or we can just keep shopping from our keyboards like we've done for years, lol.
I dont order on next day delivery when I want a pack of doritos right now :P
Unexpected item in baggage area. (Always makes me laugh that one does; I imagine the machine with a really shocked look on it's face, "Waaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!").
Self service checkout?
Tony Flies you can mute the machine
I'm pretty sure the comments are going to be littered with this... But, you bought pads
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
At 8:22 he calls them pads
good to know, want a cookie?
h omg please! I love peanut butter cookies
Monica Ortega
And? They are pads
Two years later, and there are only 4 locations
I live near one :D
BennettDev can we switch houses?
It says there's 27 locations on the wiki page...and almost all of them have addresses listed. This comment is straight up a lie.
@@BunnLilah how many of them were made in the last 6 months tho

Congratulations Amazon on inventing a grocery store that old people can't use.
And normal people too
Fuck old people anyway. Using up all the Ben Gay and baby aspirin.
dumb comment
+Matthew
So old people are stupid Luddites that cannot fathom technology!?
Not saying they are stupid. What I am saying is a lot of them don't want to take the time to learn new technology and still have dumb phones which prevents them from using this grocery store even if they learned how to. Other than that the comment I made was sarcastic in that it implies old people annoy me, they really don't.
Their umtimate secret is that they have 1000 employees hard working behind the cameras figuring out every person's basket and tagging the items and charging you for it.
Moth Otter ofc. It's a joke. It'd cost more than having a cashier.
"Diet Snapple. Ugh, Diet."
the machine knew Linus got diet but he did not.
Diet Snapple is better than regular
Can the machine beep at him and let him know?
Me
Diet is super bad for you. You're better off with the sugar or HFCS. Fake sugar is evil. I know this firsthand.
Him: I fooled Amazon
Amazon: Thanks for the free advertising
I sure as hell not going there after watching this.

Everyone looked so pissed at you
Why?
Seattle people 🙄
Alicia Michael probably the giant RED camera (out of focus too)
Because people in Seattle are passive aggressive douchebags (trust me, I live here).
sdrawecw09 is right
Were just one step closer from becoming a black mirror episode

This makes me want to start watching>¬
this video is even funnier when you realize some indian guy probably watched linus do this 😭😭
😂
i love the super awkward acting people in this store when seeing linus
Those are just normal Seattlites.
1:41 blond girl staring at linus like WTF dude, it's a store calm down
imagine just shopping and a dude going right next to you yelling "whoa, what does K stand for? Does this have kale?"
Momma's Muffins What's wrong with that? People get surprised by new things all of the time in the international food section.
IzDaBait B too bad I just turned that 669 into a 670
*runs out of battery before leaving...*
George Seddon There are battery banks and charging stations inside the store.
007Cat24 Ik but it would be funny if they didnt
George Seddon store has chargers and staff to assist you if your battery dies
Thatoneguy Mccool he knows he is just saying if they didn’t he would find it funny
I’ll just walk in for free charge then
No human interaction? That’s my kind of place!
@Stanley1337 is that anime profile pic? sorry but ur opinion doesn't count

He has a barbequed wife now.
What profile picture...?
@@khalebcromwell2082 yeah im confused hes like changed his entire account.
Oliver Cairn ikr
me: *steals the whole store*
amazon: you can keep it
Thanks, now I can steal condoms to show my friends that I'm a cool kid now
Lol
Or you could just fucking buy them they're like $5 for 10.
Uhh 🙄 but w en you show then your scanning you tag thing and wen you garage it and just walk out it puts it in your cart and do you even have a phone 📱 or a amazon account?????
Hot
Lmao
0:33 "the only store where you do not have to have any human interaction whatsoever"
** gets given a shopping bag by a human within the first 36 seconds of the video**
Yea, even if the store isn't crowded you're still bounded to run into other people. Like they said and showed in the video they still have some employees there like ID checkers or guiders/helpers. It seems like the true "no human interaction" shopping experience is still just the original online shopping Amazon started out with, lol. Just shop online, don't even have to see the delivery guy most of the time.
i refuse to believe that some people actually thought linus (having wife and children) doesnt know what a tampon is and traveled to another country to steal from amazon without their ^permission^.
Title: We stole “tampons”
Linus: Stole a napkin
1:40 Are you really holding a laptop like that?
Take it from somebody who has already broken about 4 in 12 months, you shouldn't hold it like that.
Philip Hanhurst you are telling Linus how to break laptops? Amateur!
I got shocked in 1:54 I think he's still holding the laptop
I was more surprised about 5:49
If your laptops are breaking from that, you might want to invest in less garbage gear
its interesting how he never closes his laptop haha
*Goes out to get tampons*
*gets pads*
Sad thing is I've accidentally done that before
thats an *oof*
IDK I'M A MAAAN!!!
how could he differentiate? he has probably never used them in his entire life
white fox "probably" :D
Google: That video has cursing in it we must demonetize it.
Also Google: This video has someone stealing in it but it is from our competition and it does make them look bad yup this is advertiser friendly
FreakEasy he's pointing out an oblivious flaw in a system that is brand new and only in one test location.
Chrome Panda Rider It’s a joke lol
he completed the refund system boy. so he did.
dood, he did it on cam, he pressed refund, and it gave him the refund immediately, no questions asked. and like he said, u dun even have to return it
It doesnt matter if this video got demonetized or not, he already has sponsors
Wanted to revisit this video again after learning that this was all just a bunch of smoke and mirrors and marketing ploys
"Coconut water? do you want the harmful one or the harmless one?"
why was that so funny to me 😂
Boneless pizza or bone in pizza
60% of business expense is in labor costs... let that sink in for a moment..... Also, if you are a amazon prime customer you are top 35% income earner in the country. These people are less likely to shoplift because they can afford the product.
WRONG, Got rich tennis kids in our town and they steal all the time for the sport of it.
No wonder they think they will make up for all the lost items when a wrap costs 6.50
Thanks for the content, I showed this video in my AP US history class as "technological informative content" and I got a 40/40. Linus never ceases to deliver 10/10.
0:32 linus: “the world’s ONLY store that you do not have to have any human interaction whatsoever”
Me: *scans items at self checkout*
UrAvgGamer self checkouts have security tho. and some self checkouts you need to give a person your bag and they go and scan them, and then you can pay.
@@Denofu keyword "some"
but what if you want to void an item, a person has to come and help you out
@@Denofu If your store has people that self checkout for you. What's the point of self checkout.
The point is you don't need to check out at all. Just pick up the items and leave, no cashiers, no assistants, no dudes at the gate saying "let me see your receipt", it just charges your Amazon account.
This title would result in a 10/10 demonetization status for any small tech channel.
Science Studio boo hoo cry me a river
American Flag why should he? He is making a statement, if anything, cry me a salty sea
How does this affect you in anyway?
What wouldnt result in a demonetization (for smaller channels) these days?
Repeatedly shocking and destroying multiple PC components due to moronic use of a PSU cable, then blaming an innocent company, possibly ruining their product's image, should result in a "10/10" ban for that said small tech channel.
Just use the self checkout in a normal supermarket lol
This video really hits different when a bunch of people from India are watching you
Wife's gonna be pissed, those aren't tampons.
This was actually a really good video/take on this subject. Kudos.
Take.. I see what you did there...
This dude actually put 2 sponsors into a 13 minute video lmao
with 3 Million + views ;)
What is whisper was also a sponsor? :O
Technically Amazon sponsored him with $6 worth of pads, so that makes three.
Not to mention the Razer laptop he was carrying around for no reason other than to advertise it + the Amazon store itself is 4 sponsors.
Apparently Amazon was just outsourcing the cashiers to India. Employees in India would watch the cameras and charge you for the items. So lame for a multibillion ‘tech’ company
*1 week later at the Linus Office*
"Why is the FBI here?"
He is Canadian...
In Sweden, maybe even all Scandinavian countries, you have the option to shop at a normal grocery store with a handheld scanner if you'd like. Just scan as you are putting stuff into your cart. At the end, there are dedicated lines for you to bag your stuff and insert the scanner into a machine to pay, no human interaction required.
Limbos Vi yeah there's self check outs at some grocery stores in the USA too
The ones I'm talking about are different than self checkouts found in the USA. This one you scan as you go then when you are done you just walk out with your cart.
I have that at my local Wal-Mart in Canada.
Limbos Vi we have self service in the UK too.
Those work until you decide to return a scanned item, at that moment I always get my cart searched...
Says "tampon", holds up pads... lol
If you watched the video you would hear him say pads.
I know, I watched it. I was saying in the title and thumbnail.
Also fails at theft.
TreadLife yeah, basically just all clickbait.
Lindsey Wood I was thinking about that lol
No joke, turns out this was actually just powered by 1,000 Indian people
Isn't this just a giant, very complicated vending machine
norgi It is
That's actually quite accurate.
I’ve never seen a human being sooo loud in public omg 😂😂
Hes talking at like a normal rate but it sounds loud because his mic is on his shirt
Novo Zenith actually no this was shot on an iPhone.
Ever seen a misbehaving kid?
Right? I had second-hand embarrassment.
@@YEETMAN-dt9mb no
WE STOLE TAMPONS but picks up pads. come on now linus
Fast forward to 2024 when Amazon admits the "AI" that makes this "technology" work is a thousand Indian workers watching security footage 😭
TBH i never noticed this was recorded on an iphone
PX3UAden the real question is who is that one person that guessed right first?

Yeah the quality looks pretty good..
Vasily Kravtsov ofcourse it’s an iPhone e
@@nehadoll507 back then
Now if someone steals your phone, they can just go into an Amazon Store and they've basically stolen your credit card as well.
AngryNerds100 the store must have a ton of security cameras, they will know what time thry thief bought the stuff, check the cameras, arrest him and give him a huge fine or jail.
Maybe now it does considering they're still testing it.
how beastic
blinkzh I mean it’s an employeless store so if you’re stealing phones to buy shit I’m sure you’d walk in with a face cover or some shit.
It has employees. Just no cashiers. There's people checking isles, and people checking ID if you watched the video at all. lul
The real question I have is, will the wife forgive you for getting pads when you were supposed to get tampons?
Waldo
It'll end up costing him more than the pads he stole xD
there is a little known fact about amazon (the online store): returned items very rarely make it back to the store. They are sent to a company that manages returns, and although some of those items will reappear on amazon as "used" or sold through other parties on the marketplace, most of it end up in discount stores that specialize in selling items that usually are written off, leftover stock, or items returned from retail stores for whatever reason. Reason is simply that Amazon doesn't have a system to process returns at all, or any logistics in place to restock their warehouses with returned items, and because they have such a high throughput of orders they flat out don't care about returns - anything that goes out is just making space for new items coming in
