The time I went to 5 Walgreen’s in 2 Hours….No, I was not robbing them! – Driving Time Lapse Video

I am happy to announce (and i BET YOU’LL BE GLAD TO HEAR) that this is the last TLV I have migrated from my blogspot. I wanted to get them all here since this is where I will be posting new ones first. I’ll post here and then UL to blogspot, YT, metacafe, etc. But this is where the good videos will be, better quality…I don’t think I have to rehash all that again with you though ;-)

I really did drive to 5 different Walgreen’s in just over 2 hours. Was I looking for a strategic balm or ointment? No! Nor was I robbing them or looking for clearance items.

I actually do a little mystery shopping on the side. You’ve heard them advertised on the radio…earn $$ and keep merchandise…yada, yada, yada. Believe me, it’s not all it’s cut out to be. By the time you have to study the shop, do the shop, and write up the shop, and buy gas you are working for dirt cheap…most likely less than min. wage in some cases! It’s more of a hobby to get me out of the house I think!

But anyway this was a Sunday afternoon, I got a little procrastination action happening and I managed to have this many shops due that day!

Funny thing is that I looked in my TLV folder and there is another segment! I think this video only show 4 different stops…but oh well! You get the idea!

Wax on, Wax Off – Candles Melting Time-Lapse Video

Wax on, Wax Off – Candles Melting Time Lapse Video

I know, I know, everyone in the universe (< = everyone) has seen candles melt but how often do you see them melt @ high speed! In my estimation as least 7 times less than the previous number of 2.8 billion.

I am getting to that point where ideas are hard to come by…not desperate yet but I am starting to have to use my brain and if you knew me you’d know that it’s a risky affair to do so. Candles were an easy fit b/c I have them and they show movement! A good match both time and movement for this application so I went for it :)

Parking In The Lot – Parking & Driving Time-Lapse Video

Parking In The Lot – Park & Drive Time Lapse Video

I think this is the last of the Wal-Mart videos that I have done already. I think that establishment lends itself nicely to time-lapse videos because there is always a lot of people coming and going from it.

Huh, and you know, this appears to be another one that did not make it to my YouTube uploads! I have no idea why that is!

A rare dusk drive to the ‘ol Wal-mart…I promise I go other places! I really wanted to hit the sunset that day as the clouds were pretty cool but my destination did not afford me the proper vantage point to which to view said sunset. Too bad water towers are of limits, those would allow me to get above all the %#%* neighborhoods!

This is a new Wal-mart so it’s clean! But being that it’s new and in a relatively small ‘town’ it’s not super busy which is great whenever you have to shop there.

But let all who take refuge in you rejoice; let them ever sing for joy, and spread your protection over them, that those who love your name may exult in you. For you bless the righteous, O LORD; you cover him with favor as with a shield. (Psalm 5:11-12, ESV)
