Transcript

Come with me to Mr. Bins. If you haven't heard of this before, there are two locations open in the Lehigh Valley now. And it's essentially a place where Amazon returns go. It is the hell of Amazon returns. It's a huge room filled with just massive bins. This one is specifically in an old Raider. Filled with old Amazon returns. The price of the stuff in the bins depends on the day of the week. We went on a Monday, so everything in the bins were $5, except for the food was $2. I think maybe shoes were $6. You have to dig through, but we did get some stuff. I got a crusty dusty pack of tampons for $5. A cool base, African net sponge. CeraVe. My favorite skin oil. My boyfriend got some stuff. Hand warmers for work. We got a raft for our boat. These Simple Mills crackers were two bucks. I don't know, we spent like 40 minutes in there. You really have to dig, but it was kind of fun.
