Product placement

Five Below (store): APPEARS - a store name is mentioned and the video is about shopping there. Removing it would change the context of the video. Mystery Dumpling (toy): ACTS - the creator unboxes and shows the toy, demonstrating its appearance and texture. Removing it would remove the main subject of the video.

Transcript

I just walked out of Five Below. I went in for candy, like I usually do. And they had dumplings there. I don't usually get dumplings, but they had the mini ones. So I'm gonna show you my dumpling haul. Okay. Not only did they have the mini ones, but they also have the tie-dye ones. And these when I scan them said 'moltos' and if you know me, my biggest problem with the dumplings is that they're water squishies and I don't think that's satisfying. But if this is a sugar one, oh my god, I should have grabbed more. Okay, I'm gonna start with the mini dumplings because they're so cute. This is the spooky edition. Look at that. The rare is the ghost. And I want that so badly. But I'll be happy with any of them. I don't mind a water dumpling if it's like little because that's fun. But when it's like a big guy, I'm not the biggest fan. Okay. First one. See what we got. Oh so cute! Not the ghost. And I really don't mind a water dumpling if it's small enough to fit in the palm of my hand. So that's cute. I like that. They're like a little sticky. Which I don't mind. My squishies being a little sticky. Okay. That's adorable. Let's check out the second one. The options are green, orange, purple, black, and then the ghost rare. The ghost is so cute. But also, I feel like I could draw that on any of them. And it would be a ghost. Let's be honest. I've never had the face not rub off on these dumplings. But they're so cute. And these are like $2. Who's gonna say no to a $2 haul? I also got a bunch of slimes. So come back for my next video. Thanks for watching. I also got a bunch of slimes. So come back for my next video.
