If you decided to make a haul video what one purchase would you be most likely to boast about during your video?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

The bigger question is would I ever do one of these videos? I would have to say that either someone would have to pay me a reasonable rate in compensation to create the video to promote their site, or I would have had to picked up some insane deals. I mean, I am a bargain shopper and all, and I have made some really great purchases, but I don't think there has ever been anything yet that had me so excited that I wanted to create YouTube video about it and declare it to the world! Unless they are selling new cars for like $100 or practically giving away iPads to everyone, I can't really see myself doing it without being paid.....Even then, it would have to be some sweet compensation because I am kind of busy.

M$I whipped out my cllphone once and did an impromptu commercial, youtube quality, about the rice Krispie treats at a hospital I was getting physical therpy..."Look at this--they're as big as my head!" Sounded like "a whole wall of hats" in a live read I once did for Sporting Life in Greenbelt, MD, in either 1991 or 1992.
Jesus, at least 18 years ago. I'm not even 40, but now I feel old..
My almost 6-year-old son and I occasionally order Domino's Pizza. Listen to the end of the clip and picture someone opening the door and shooting that. Your speaker isn't broken--the radio station only got one side and it hasn't been digitally remastered yet. This was the end of a 3-hour program and I had to squeeze in the three sponsorships before I went off the air.

Man! you are one fast talker,lol
Haha. Every so often, someone used to hold up a "SLOW" sign outside the studio, on the other side of the glass in front of me. I was blasting through "The Sporting Life" by improving it for the most part. A word was missing off the card: it should have said "Everything a sports fanatic HAS ever wanted" or something like that. That's burned me for 20 years! All of the STORE info was on the card--but I'd actually been there several times and knew they had a whole wall of hats.
I was up against the beginning of a pre-game show for a Maryland football game, so I had to get in Paramount (who gave us a lot of movie tickets), (I don't know what Sporting Life gave us), and Domino's who was feeding the mob for free outside the stadium, where you'd have found lots of pizza boxes and a couple of speakers booming this out of them. They also gave us free pizza things to give away for contests, so I figured I'd better talk them up--as much as I could on a non-commercial station. Notice there's no money mentioned, or a "call to action," which says buy. I give movie times and say students can get a discount, I talk about The sporting Life, what I saw there and that discount, and I specifically remember being told that "You should know" was what made the Domino's thing noncomm.I never talked about about the specials, toppings or prices
There's a reason the resume says "On-Air Talent."
You learn how to cram your station name, your name, maybe the name of the song, a weather report and then the station's ID into 16 seconds. This is a clip of me on the radio for the very first time compared with two years later. It's known as "hitting the post." Making it in before singing starts. Sometimes music changes and there could be a couple of posts.
In the very well-known song below, you might use :11, when the horns start, :14 when the whistle comes, or :19 when the singing starts. There is a tiny vocal at :05 which, let's say you're coming out of a live read for someplace or you're talking about something--let's say entertainment--you could say "You guys see J. Lo's tush on TV last night?" And right on cue, you'd get an "Uh!!" Work around to the whistle with "I'll tell you what, man..." and you get the whistle right on cue, with about two seconds to give your call letters after that whistle.
You could just stop at any of those and let the song play out.That's the intro. Then you have the outro...after he says "Built like an Amazon" at about 2:42, and over 30 seconds transition fade into the next song, or wait until after 3:00, when the drums and the "Aw a Brick...House," Either way, come in, you could give your weather, other BS or just segue right into the next song or to news, weather, a live read, etc...
Here's a :30 demo I did for a now-gone store I co-owned a few years ago. We never aired it. The only thing I had to contend with was the music. All of the other voices I put in. But the music was stock--I couldn't change it. So before 26 seconds is up I have to get all that info in: My non-celebrity, celebrity endorsement, The name of the store, its claim to fame, the products it carries, the address, the phone number, the name of the store again and its slogan...all after and before "Check out the savings!" I think it's about :20 of talk.

I would do it, as I do at the club, about my latest stein purchases.

Collecting Budweiser steins is really an almost separate hobby. Some of them are actually valuable. I have a few that I like for one reason or another. The drawback to the holiday steins is that so many are made each year. You are quite wise to try to collect a complete set though, sets are much more valuable than individual Bud steins. Also, unlike the classic stein collectors, Bud collectors do like the original boxes.
I am not really into stein collecting, and this comment is totally unrelated to the question being asked, but I have every Budweiser Holiday stein ever released.....going beck to 1980. It was one of those collections that I acquired from a family member, and even though I don't really care for it, I also have no interest in letting it go. These are probably not worth near as much as some of the steins that you have, but I still know that a few of them are worth a pretty penny. Every year I go out and buy the new one just so that I will continue to have the complete set. Everything after 1991 is still in the original box.
I love this haul video, It made me laugh because it is really cute. She does hauls perfectly even when it is not a real haul.
