worse hey y'all i'm selling peppermints for 25 cents oh no thank you okay didn't work i'm trying to figure out the most approachable way to stand is sitting more approachable is standing more approachable i'm not a confrontational person i don't like the idea of confrontation i do like the idea of selling these mints you know y'all rocking with it y'all rocking with that what if i stand up here is this confrontational yeah that's that's very confrontational okay these ladies look like they are gonna buy every single vineyard vines t shirt for their kids every last one of them okay i'm

at some people and just tell they're gonna punch me if i ask them this question call them jake paul knock me out right in the spot first round look at that caterpillar right there let's get a close-up there he is what's this guy's name carl carl jacobs from mr beast videos is that offensive i didn't mean it selling peppermints for 25 cents for 20 and take a few thank you so much you're so sweet y'all have a great day thank you i'm gonna throw the dollar on carl hey carl carl look look who we got i think we're gonna go to dollar general and get like a bowl and some candy and like a sign we haven't gotten to salem like two hours we have six dollars and a dream i'm walking a mile to dollar [Music] he goes [Music] i just told that man have a take care the clerk at dollar general was telling me he had a podcast and so he's gonna email it to me i'm super stoked where's the nickel please tell me i got the nickel from that oh my oh no oh there it is i got the nickel regardless i think this was a good haul if it isn't it's a haul we had to make marketing baby dollar general haul so here's what we got for 5.
95 you know i went in there really hoping to find everything i needed for like two dollars like a marker with paper attached for a dollar or a marker with paper attached with a basket attached for a dollar but that doesn't exist right that'd be the most niche product probably ever we had to spend over half of our money on marketing i'm not even sure if it's gonna be worth it but it's something we had to do i also didn't know if i wanted to go with the two for one rice krispie treats or the pack of 18 jolly ranchers i was sitting there in that aisle for like solid five minutes i mean i got tired i had to like sit down and i think what we're going to do is try to make this this basket you know as aesthetic as possible make it look legit because that was the issue of the peppermints let's be honest i look so strange look at that look how sketchy that looks so that's what we're going to do i'm going to make this and it's going to be great [Music] oh man this one was already open if all else fails it's the motto how do i look pretty enticing so we're down to five cents if we sell all of this candy we should have about 18 to 20 dollars actually love it love your green ones okay thank you so much yeah i appreciate it great job you just keep it up let's go selling candy yummy yummy yum yum i remind you of ryan trahan that guy's pretty cool yeah i am i am that's me i am reminding you of myself i just thought you were a nice kid that'll do i like that too thank you y'all take care have a good one sometimes you just have to look at your own reflection hey guys i'm having a hard time selling this candy for 25 cents you think four for a dollar is more intriguing or like candy for 25 cents four for because people don't have quarters okay four for a dollar all right there it is candy for a dollar much better hey guys candy for for a dollar good deal right there feeling pretty good about this four for a dollar thing okay this isn't working we need to try something else one dollar for four candies right now okay that's all right one dollar four candies anyone hey guys i'm selling four candies for a dollar sorry to be awkward i'm so awkward i'm sorry mints jolly ranchers ryan

these walks to dollar general just keep getting better can we please just spam like quinn what are you doing in the comments this would probably be worth like twenty thousand dollars by the time he retires 21 22 23 24 25 26 and a half i i don't know why he has this okay i've eaten about 16 peppermints on the way here dollar general is right around the corner catching my breath kind of it's been quite a day but we're just getting started the night is young i think it's like 4 p. m so these things right here feel like i'm just eating matter at this point the sugar alcohol is just numb to me so it's like what am i actually consuming home sweet home if only i could reach [Music] oh yeah this doesn't count as a dollar does it okay if you take that to the bank they will give you a new one okay thank you sir thank you all right 22.
