DISCLAIMER: I am not affiliated at all with Discount Bins. I'm not getting paid at all by them to post this blog. This is MY blog. I'm just another raging idiot like you who loves raiding this place Black Friday style! LMAO!!! And I just thought I would share my experiences with you LOL. If anything, I'm going to be paying homage to Toys "R" Us more than anything in this blog.
It is De-Ja-Vu really for me... The fact that this store opens up in the old Toys "R" Us building. The rainbow tiles are still there on the front of the store. sigh... memories...
It reminds me of the time 16 years ago when this place still was Toys "R" Us. It was Black Friday 2006. I got up early with an old friend at 4am in the morning to get in line here at Toys "R" Us. The Nintendo Wii had just came out and my friend wanted one. With people camping out front of Best Buy and a line wrapped around the building there was no getting a Wii there LOL. But Toys "R" Us was still fair game! We were 4th in line when we got there at 4am. I remember at 6am when the doors opened. The manager came out. He said, "I only got six Wii's." So being 4th in line my friend got him a Wii.
Now here I am, 16 years later, getting up at 4am to walk a little over 3 miles across town to be first in line at the Discount Bins. Just like Black Friday 16 years ago. It's the same building. Only now its a ghost from the past. Another dimension in time and place. It's like I time traveled. Now 16 years later here I am... Wondering what the Hell happened to this place LOL
Thanks to Trump, the last old toy store, Toy's "R" Us went out of business. And that is my one personal reason why I hate Trump. Anyone that would put a toy store out of business (especially for their own personal gain) is the Anti-Christ! Like Mitt Romney, who put KB Toys out of business. FUCKERS!!! But that is a different rant LOL. My ex and I were 4 months pregnant with our son when we went here to the same Toys "R" Us for the last time. Only this time I was saying goodbye. Thanks to Trump's tariffs, I will never get to walk through the doors of a Toy "R" Us ever again. Thanks to Trump's tariffs, I will never be able to take my son here to Toys 'R" Us like my parents used to take me when I was his age. SMH... I still remember being 5 years old and my Dad taking me to Toys "R" Us to get me a new Nintendo game. The original NES too! Before they really even had an electronic section in the store. sigh the memories I had here... tear tear
But from problem to opportunity. Had Trump not put Toys "R" Us out of business, it couldn't blossum and become the new business it is now, the Discount Bins. Out of the ashes of Toys "R" Us, the Discount Bins arise LOL. Where there are Black Friday deals here EVERY Friday LOL.
Now to show you some of the good shit that I have been finding at this place...
Of course the smart watch LOL. So I'm going to get this one out of the way early. I've started posting my own fitness reports with this thing instead of using . I LOVE THIS THING! It has been one of my best finds yet. I've found a few smart watches now. The other ones I gave away.
You probably saw this thing on the facebook page last week. I GOT IT! And if you are one of the ones telling me how easy it is to break into this thing, YOU'RE RIGHT!!! I plan on doing a follow up blog with this gun safe. I know how to make the Bill Conch unsafe gunsafe safe... LOL. I plan on doing a full review of this gun safe explaining how to fix the problem or at least what I'm going to do to fix the problem for me anyways LOL. I feel bad for anyone who was dumb enough to pay anywhere from $140 - S180 for this thing. I was only dumb enough to pay $15 LOL. I know lots of people bought these and got defective ones. I saw the video of the guy who got one of these and all he had to do was tap the side of the box with a small flashlight and it pops right open... SMH. That guy got a defective one and I would of sent it back for a full refund. Breaking into this thing with a flathead screw driver and a paperclip doesn't make this thing defective. But tapping the thing on the side and it pops right open means it is in fact defective. After watching that video I banged the fuck out of this thing and it did NOT pop open. Not once! Even after going outside and dropping it on the ground from a 4ft level it did NOT pop open. This one I got is solid! However, I know what I am going to do to fix the other problem. So be on the look out for that blog in the future.
A couple nice high dollar drones I only paid $15 for. The one on the right that comes with the nice metal box is a $200 drone! The Potensic D58. However, I'm too stupid to figure out how to fly the thing LOL. So I'm selling it for $100. The other one is the Holy Stone HS110G drone. This one sells in the $140 - $160 range. However I figured out how to fly this thing no problem so I'm keeping this one LOL. The video quality of the camera on this thing is great!
One of the nicest chess sets that I have ever seen!!! Who here likes chess? I'm itching to play a game with my new set LOL. I've always wanted to start my own chess club and call it "The Piece Movement." LMAO! This set here is most likely a cheap immitation fake ceramic set but still so worth $15.
I'm going to tag the network for this item LOL. That's right! You can find ANYTHING at the bins, including a nice grow light HA HA. It didn't take me long at all to rehome this thing and for a good price LOL.
You might have also seen this item in the video that was posted on the facebook page last week. I know the EMF Tester isn't a high dollar item but I wanted it so I can now go on ghost hunts LOL.
This nice ass remote control monster truck is a birthday present for my son. He loves monster trucks so he will love this! Several times now I have almost bought a nice remote control car of some sort. I see them here at the bins every week. I keep putting them back because there is something wrong with them. This week, nothing was wrong with this monster truck so I got it. I can't wait to give it to my son on his birthday.
Got these nice $50 - $60 pair of boots. They get lots of shoes in each week. Finally I find me a pair that fit me and its a nice pair of boots. Yes!
HA HA It didn't take me long at all to find me one of these mini NES plug N play games.
So far I've found three plug N Play game systems like this here. You can find lots of games and gaming components here at the bins. Like controllers for pretty much any console you can think of LOL. Tons of gaming headsets. I find those every week.
This little Gameboy like plug N play system is really unique! I'm keeping this one LOL. The reason I say it is unique is because you can play on the hand held, or plug it into any TV and play using the TV. It is really cool! It comes with a controller too so you can have two players. Play on the go or play at home HA HA. Like the mini NES this thing has over 500 games built into it. Mostly duplicates of course so really you are only getting like 100 to 200 games and crappy games at that LOL. The reason I'm keeping this little blue Gameboy game is because amazingly enough, it has Super Mario 3 on it. These little plug N play games usually only give you a few good games and the rest are junk. They give you the other Mario games but never something like Mario 3. So I was really shocked to see it on here. And it works just fine too! See...
PROOF this Gameboy thing has Super Mario 3...
The other plug N play game that I found was this thing. I found what I thought was a couple of PS5 controllers. They turned out to be a game console thing LOL. The Ampown U9 gamestick with 10,000 games on it for over 20 different consoles. I guess this cheap ass generic company decided to use the PS5 controller to use to play these games with. Just plug the gamestick into the HDMI of your TV and you are ready to play. However, my big screen is old and doesn't have nor support HDMI so I cannot play any of these games that are on here. I'm trying to sell this thing for $40. It retails for around $75.
You might have seen this nice ass pulse red Xbox controller on the facebook page awhile back. MINE! However I haven't had any luck getting rid of it LOL. I felt so stupid trying to trade it in at the gamestore. They were litterally only going to give me $15 for this $70 Xbox controller. Which is what I paid for this damn thing LMAO! I'm trying to get $35 out of it. In the end I might keep it so in case I one day make friends that have an Xbox One I will have my own controller to bring over and play with. Especially knowing that this is a nice $70 controller, who has money to buy several of these at this price so their friends can play? Seriously!!!
This is the $80 beginner drone that I found. The Sanrock U52 drone. So far this drone is the easiest to fly. It flips and stuff too! And it isn't hard at all to make it do that LOL. Why can't the professional drones be as easy to fly as this one??? This is going to be my play drone and the Holy Stone drone will be my professional one.
This item is another rare oddity that I was surprised to find. But for $15 I couldn't resist! Especially when I found out just how much money they want for this thing! An at home DNA testing kit from a European company called 24Genetics. This kit is only for the talent and personality portions of the test. The 7-in-one test kit sells on their website right now for $260 but the Talent and Personality test by themselves sell for $189. So I'm asking $100 for this test kit. It is brand new, still factory sealed, never been opened.
So there you have it! From Toys "R" Us to the Discount Bins. These are just some of the items I'm finding at the bins for only $15 a piece. Now you know what I have been up to these past few weeks LOL. And I'm going again next Friday LOL. What will I find next time??? To find out...
