I could never understand why one needs to label "grapes" on a clearly see-through container of grapes. I can see the grapes. They do not look like onions or anything else.

I grew up poor so I can definitively tell you I'm the target demographic for restock culture. They are targeting people who never want to feel the pain of not having enough again, so they have radicalized to a plentiful mindset. I even catch myself buying huge boxes of snack bars and refilling a snack box in my pantry.

The best advice I ever heard “don’t read beauty magazines, they’ll only make you feel ugly.” I started to see influencers as the new beauty magazine, it helped me see things more clearly.

My daughter was watching a minute of this over my shoulder and said “her hair is so beautiful, ” and I just wanted you to know 😊 love your content!

"restocking my junk drawer"
ah yes, i do that too, but its more like i open the drawer and shove new junk in there and kind of shuffle it around until the thing shuts.

People make fun of their grandmas for being addicted to shopping on HSN and QVC, but they don’t realize social media has become literally identical, it behaves the same way and serves the same purpose, and they are EATING IT UP just like granny.

"Aesthetic" silicone ice trays are beginning to show up in my thrift stores, in huge quantities. Proof that "TikTok Made Me Buy It" items are fun or cute for a minute, but ultimately they are destined for the secondhand market and then the landfill. I expect in 6 - 12 months, the thrifts will be full of Stanley brand mugs.

[bellaslifevlogs]

I love how you explained this as some do not recognize the difference between real life and influencers and it's sad. It make people unrealistically want more.

[sillysoz]

I bet there's a backup 'ugly' fridge where the leftovers and half-empty stuff goes, like in the garage out of sight haha

[drakedrones]

It’s targeted for lower middle class and poor people: I belong to this class. It’s a psychological thing IYKYK. I literally had to detach myself mentally from these types of content. This is literally hoarding disguised as “aesthetic content”.

[reginalemoine]

Regarding unpackaging and repackaging of refrigerated items: When you pour a product out of its original package, you are taking it out of a sterile container. No matter how clean your own container is, it’s never going to be as clean as the original container. As a result, you are introducing bacteria, which will not only shorten the shelf life of a product, but can lead to food borne illness. It’s fine if you want to put small amounts of your condiments into pretty containers for serving, but for storage, it’s best to stay with the package it came in.

You did a very good job explaining without degrading. I agree so much for what you said and I think the reason why these are so appealing is because so many of us feel like our lives are out of control and that we have no control over certain aspects of our lives watching these videos makes you feel like oh I can do that if I watch this step-by-step, maybe I can do it to. Kind of like that whole perception that if I watch something enough times, it’ll be like muscle memory for me. That’s how I see it anyway. PSA :Also remember many of them don’t pay for the things they are showing

[Jemmainadilemma]

Imagine taking ketchup out of a squeezy bottle to put it in a far less practical bottle!!! IMAGINE ACTUALLY DOING THAT

[ellierafn]

Something that bothered me as a retail worker about 16:14 was them not rotating stock. They are pushing the drinks that are "still left" into the back and putting all the new ones in front. The old ones will expire in the back 😭

[Rachoswald]

If my guest needs 2 sticks of deodorant and 6 tubes of shampoo, they've already overstayed their welcome!

[nottellinnoone]

I must say i love how you talk and articulate the points and issues as objectively as possible without hate . You are the investigative journalist of content creators

[annecathymoore]

Yes, I hate this so much! Restocking is something big supermarkets do… We, as individuals, shouldn’t restock. We should just buy what we need. No reason for a shelf full of shampoo & conditioner unless you own a hair salon!

[BrandonGrew]

This is the kind of social media literacy and analysis that we should be showing to our kids in schools. 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼

[johku]

I had a history teacher that said along the lines "every posession you have is something you need to worry and care for. Not having much makes you worry free".

[BLOO]

I’ve recently decided I wanted to be a bit more organize and started with my bathroom. I did it so basically nothing was in view except for my soap dispenser and I hated it so much because it felt too sterile so I dis-organized it a little bit. It’s all about balance 😅
