I sold real estate before Garmins became common. Nothing like pulling out the Rand McNally street map books. First you had to look up the City, then find the index to the street, the find the block on the grid, the find the street, then sorta look and see if you recognized a main st and figure out the best route. If you were new, or not familiar with a particular area, sometimes it took a while.
I was a courier PT while going to college - I knew that map book like the back of my hand - I can't imagine plopping that down in front of most people today and get anything besides a blank stare.
@5:29 *Store credit should never expire* That's the law in multiple states. Cash doesnt expire, so why would a credit? Risk of holding onto credit is real possibility that the store may close, get sold to new owners, or go out of business.
Hello, I used to work on map product teams for Garmin and the automotive industry at their supplier, called HERE Technologies. The original map products you're referencing were certainly out in the early to mid 2000s but gained momentum into the timeframe of 2008 and on, as you reference. Our product teams completed the definition of pedestrian & public transit data integration into digital maps around that time and carried on into the various offerings you see in the market today, with competitors & other common mobile providers using the same product requirements defined by the conglomeration of manufacturers.
Earl Gray is better than Yorkshire.. Iced is better than hot.. Just put 4 teabags into a gallon jug of warm water.. Then place it outside in the sunlight for 4 hours.. Bring it inside, remove the teabags, and put it in the refrigerator overnight before drinking.. If you like to put ice in the glass with your tea.. Use 5 bags instead of 4 when you make it.. I prefer my tea unsweetened, but if you like you tea sweet.. Add one cup of sugar to the gallon of water and stir it until it dissolves before adding the teabags..
I remember renting die hard for the PlayStation back in the day and loving it so much because that was a great movie and then it turned out to be a pretty good game as well. Back in the 90s the world wasn't ruined yet or at least we weren't aware of it it was.
I cannot stay away from your channel keep missing the cat and parrot .they are a tranquil reflection of the way you interact with your customers keep the good work up
Commander in Chief showed his face again he was supposed to be overseas. I guess those bb guns is were he got his sniper skills lol hopefully he makes a better commander in Chief than our current one.
he set it up as a insurance scam lol soon as he said that i knew it right away have someone "steal" your stuff so you can claim insurance through the storage company sketchy guy right there he looks it
@@ICYPROFITS good point...I used to watch a few channels that bought storage units and would mention particular ones they would bid on be it in person or online and there was something in the photos that caught their eye. I didn't even think about that aspect....I just thought it was on odd flex.

Boy, theres a brand I haven't heard of in years. Thexton used to make specialty tools for automotive industry, carburetor, ignition, brake tools, cool stuff thats pretty much antiquated these days.
Using a map like that when you needed to find a town you had to find a letter and a number to find the square thst the town would be located. Like G-2. So you would look for G and go across to the area of 2 and there you go. It was better having a AAA Triptik that you had the whole route there and back without trying to deal with a large size Mal like that.
As a born and bred Yorkshireman a visit to your emporium is now essential knowing you have Yorkshire tea . Tea bag first, boiling water added, leave to brew for 2 minutes then add milk and sugar as required ...Eey up lad , a real cuppa !!!
She’s not lying. Metro tells its employees to allow the homeless to use the bus & trains as shelter. To do nothing. As well as not reporting incidents. Metro did create this issue by not enforcing the law in order to protect its employees & riders. By the way, it’s not the first time metro fires someone publicly. Then escorting them off the property with law enforcement or security. We’ve seen it done in the past. Metro DOES NOT CARE ABOUT THE SAFETY OF ITS EMPLOYEES & RIDERS. It only caters to the law breakers of this county.
Great video like always Pete. A long time fan and subscriber since around 80k, back when u filmed mostly picking at peoples houses rather than the shop. Love the content and always wait for the next. From Brooklyn New York love ya Pete

Hey Pete, just wanted to let you know, if you didn't already, on most surfaces, dry erase markers will remove permanent ink, regardless of how long it's been there. I acquired a dry erase board that someone had written on using permanent marker many years before. After cleaning the thick layer of dust, I used the dry erase marker to cover the writing and rubbed it right off. I had learned the trick just before the getting it and was pleasantly surprised to see it work. I figured I'd share in case you encounter a surface that may be damaged by other methods.
Love the old maps, in the early 90’s I traveled back and forth between International Falls, Mn and Big Pine key,Fl always with an Atlas in my car and would travel different routes each trip so I could see new sights!!…once I did get off course and I pulled over and examined the map and found a faint line on it that I gambled and took to save me 40 minutes of driving
You should pay people 3-5% on store credit for each year held longer than 1 year to entice people to refrain from using it. Also the longer they keep it the more likely they will forget it. I'm reading the stats are 6% of gift cards are never used and Amazon alone had 2.8 billion dollars worth of unused gift card balances in 2018.
The customer at 10:00 looks like he could be Pete's long lost brother! Edit: Another one of Pete's long lost brothers at 23:20...except this one might be his twin! lol

Talk about GPS in the 70’s I walk into (circuit city) A Garmin in color 3 in screen I think . I pain $1000. Wow not like now.

Yorkshire tea is the best, fresh boiling water, 3 minutes for the bag to steep in the water, bit of milk and some sugar - heaven.
sugar? Wow...just no! Milk was already terrible
