Honestly for the Nintendo Switch you should’ve just asked for game recommendations. If your goal was to play on your own NO ONE would’ve told you to buy party games like Mario Party, Mario Kart and Just Dance. These games are literally meant to be played with others, at a gathering or online.
This. Underrated point.
True
I have a wii U (I want a switch) and my friend and I have been face timing and playing Mario Kart together
This.
Agreed
Animal Crossing alone would have made you love the Nintendo Switch. I've had one for a while and that is the first game that has made me go, "I love this thing."
I'm so addicted to this game! Love it.
Idk... I play AC sometimes but for me it's just a bit boring after a while. The fishing and digging are super frustrating because it's hard to aim exactly where you want to target. And it's just a SUPER slow paced game in my opinion. I still play it sometimes but I get a LOT more enjoyment out of other games, such as Legend of Zelda.
@@JennaJohnsonRecipeDiaries me too! So fun. I've always liked Animal Crossing, and this is starting to be the best one.
She has animal crossing. You can see it on the screen when she shows the switch
I haven’t put my switch down in months
I didn’t use to play video games at all, until my husband bought a Switch and taught me how to play Zelda and OMG I got so addicted! There are several games nowadays that I love, you just gotta find the right game to you. The Mario games that you bought are more for playing with friends rather than by yourself.
Yeah there are a million different games, there are genres for everybody!
There is a negative correlation between interest in kitchen appliance and gaming consoles. After a certain age, my interest also switched from games to panini machine, waffle maker, air fryer, instapot, fancy fridge, and super automatic espresso machine.😂
Edith I love my kitchen stuff, I actually have the same panini grill that she showed and I LOVE it. I do understand that video games are not for everyone, but I does seem that she went on the Switch vibe without much search. It’s a very expensive purchase, my husband has loved video games for years and years and he searched to see if there were enough games available on the Switch that he would wanna play before buying it.
To be fair Zelda is one of the greatest games ever made and the Switch game is stunning, good choice, I would buy a Switch just to play Zelda.
explains in the first 5 minutes how important saving is - continues to buy things out of boredom
hahaha The irony! :D and she also said she's using the app. not sure how useful is it then
@@VASIGTravelingLifeinLondon Boredom > App
She has a sponser now & the money she gets from that probably enough to pay for all the purchases
I feel like Shelby is still really responsible with money! She just bought a house with her sister as an investment, plus you also have to realize that she probably has a very high income, so these purchases in the video won't make that much of a difference
mazeppa LMAO RELATABLE
I saved money for sure not eating outside, but I have been spending a lot of money on online purchases like indoor house plants!
Joy Mae oh my god my houseplant collect has more than quadrupled and I need help
same girl, same! got obsessed with houseplants and I just can't stop!
Get a life instead of watching pointless videos. Why cant you make your own decisions ?
Shoots I’ll take your Nintendo switch off your hands homie
same lol
Same I’ve had mine for years
Shelby you are an INSPIRATION!!! I lost my job due to the pandemic. Since then I’ve started a KZhead Channel on Personal Development and Investing...and it is GROWING!!! Thanks for being an I so, and to everyone else...NEVER GIVE UP!!!
that's so awesome bro good luck
Chad Champion Thank you so much! It’s not easy, but I appreciate the encouragement!
That's amazing!! 😊
I just subscribed, good luck
loomonda18 thank you so much!!
Loved it! Now I want an air fryer!
I saved good money in the first 2 months and on my 3rd month i bought a boat and a new macbook pro lol
What kind of boat?!
Girl! My Nintendo Switch saved my marriage! My husband and I were getting on each other nerves so we decided we would Channel this energy into racing against each other in Mario Kart or fighting each other in Super Smash Brawl. Girl, you are in your mid 20s enjoy them Because once you are married, lots of petty talks and compromise ensue 😂
I bought the pizza pouch
very cool Alex Clark and smart purchase
Probably bought it for his babysitter!
OMG when the broken iPhone showed up, I was like "yep, that's definitely Monica's phone" lol
Your personality/vibe is magnetic. I jump on to watch something specific but everytime...it doesn't really matter what it is...im like oh there's Shelby. TAP. Always entertaining!
Shelby is a moneymaking powerhouse while also being genuinely likeable. Godspeed and get rich!!
Your vlogs and this video are really tempting me to get a panini maker since I've always wanted one! Great video Shelby with some helpful advice too, definitely checking out that air fryer and food storage containers.
omg so fun! would love a video with some recipes with stuff you have cooked, inspo!
New subscriber , really love the great mix of content.
I love the podcast I have been listening to every episode! Hey Shelby, I loooove these types of vids and you make them so well!!! love it you play piano youa re so prety stunning queen
Love your videos!!! where did you get the tube light? 😍
Nice purchase shelby👩nice to see you in utube💓have a nice day✌
I binge-watched almost all your videos in three days. Yay productivity for me :D You rock, Shelby! 🤟
I love the variety of your videos. I have created a few and man... it isn't easy! Nice job!
definitely regret buying a bunch clothes with the mindset of "i'm gonna wear this when quarantine is over" ): but my favorite purchase of quarantine is definitely a laptop stand! it's helped with my posture and helped my laptop with it's overheating problem ((:
I feel you on that! I bought 12 lipsticks. LIPSTICKS. I can't even wear them under the masks 🙈
hehe I've bought loads of clothes in lockdown! I will look cute after lockdown
Shelby, the day will come when you'll regret not getting The Pizza Pouch. 😂😂😂😂
Very nice video I like it thank you so much Shelby Church a beautiful video and a lot information
Woooow, I thank God my KZhead Channel is growing fast and now get time to watch Shelby Church's videos, i am so glad
I have been the exact opposite. Being indoors makes me analyze my stuff, and want to see what I can GET RID OF.
the On-Stage mic stand, it's really designed more for amplifiers and bass drums on a concert stage. They have some use as a table-mounted stand but goose-neck stands are better for that.
Shelby that part! "A Microwave Could never!!" I love your content and that part just made my night
Proud of you for ordering delivery less, I want that panini press. Your comments on that LED desk light made me get one too lol, Shelby is such a vibe! You make such interesting videos, thank you for helping us through this crazy time
Yay you didn't forget the outro 😄 PS: the panini maker is everything! I bought TONS of books during quarantine. Like, a lot. Totally worth it.
SAME! I love mine as well and also got an air fired during lock down. So funny and don't regret it at all! Greetings from a small youtuber
Hi Shelby, great vlog!! I bought 2 new Apple watch bands and I love them. Off topic but I'm curious... Do your roommates use your panini maker and air fryer or do they know not to use them? I'm picky with ppl using my stuff so I'd be so grossed out if they didn't clean it properly. 😊
I really like those food storage containers! Is it possible to link where exactly you bought them? 😊
Ive been doing my dip nails over quarantine and i went ahead and bought all the SNS stuff and an electric nail drill and its been great probably like $130 all together but I wont be going to the nail salon anymore!
I was just about to get that book ! You’ve definitely made up my mind & Same so glade I didn’t get the game thing lol 😝 but I’ve had the lights they are awesome 👏🏼 I use them also as a night light 💡! Oh ya I’ve gotten some bulbs that link to you phone but I haven’t used them yet because I was just happy with the strip lights ! I appreciated your video ! Xo
I love your videos!! I can’t stop watching them❤️
Shelby, I love your videos! And also stress out how important it is to save! I've also been using the things for my kitchen way more often than before. Who else is with me?
This would be a great opportunity to have Amazon Affliliate links listed! I want that air fryer 😍
Haha, OMG the Switch 😂 I'd love to take it off your hands . . . if you didn't grow up with the Game Cube or DS you might not care about it or the games 🤭
I have had that exact panini maker for 8 years now and I LOVE IT. It’s really awesome. I use it every day! Have you tried making pancakes on it yet? They come out perfect 👌🏼
Really interesting video, Shelby. Never got the Switch hype to be honest! Can’t believe the air fryer was only $80, anything that should be crispy is awful to cook in the microwave lol.
Hahah we all thought we’d save...and yet...we’ve spent more.
The crunch sold me. That was a satisfying crunch.
omg im early but idk what to say oh i love your podcast
I totally agree about the switch! I haven’t played mine in months!
Your description of the microwaved tequito: "kind of slimy", I LOVE IT!!! Hehehe!
Shelby, can you link the light bar? It looks awesome! I couldn’t find that brand on Amazon... thank you! Love your channel!
I’m looking for it too can’t find it
www.lifx.com/products/lifx-beam. It's pretty expensive, but here ya go.
I am glad that you made this video. It’s always better to do a lot of research on items and think very hard about something before making the purchase. Make sure that you are really going to get full use out of it. I was tempted to buy a gaming system. I thought very hard about it during my furloughed time. I came to the conclusion that I didn’t need it. I’m glad that I made that decision. Think before you buy something. Have a great day.
You are awesome thankyou for your details
I actually got that OnStage stand and I really like it! The weight prevents my heavier XLR microphones from tipping over!
I love your voice and the way you are talking btw ❤️
I love my air fryer and I gasped when you said Trader Joe’s Black bean and cheese taquitos omg!! They are my fav of life !!
Hey, that's my exact Panini maker. Love it. I ran across your channel when I was looking for Tesla videos. Good stuff.
Wtf🤣
@@ryantaylor1765 Something I can help you with?
Animal crossing is worth the buy haha - I think the problem with the other games is that you have nothing to work towards to continue playing. A game like Animal crossing is designed to be played for a little bit each day and to work towards a goal - so honestly I would give it a try , you'll be hooked!
Love the fact that the sponsor is something that could be useful to so many people. Don't get me wrong i love seeing raid shadow legends on every video, but everyone has finances to manage. Thanks!
I don't know how , but KZhead recommended me one of your video and after watching that , i was sooo soo in love with the style of your making videos, that i ended up watching 10 videos in one go.. Keep the hard work going Shelby Lots of love from INDIA♥️
I always forget that when you buy a video game console, you need to buy the games too. Video games are so expensive!! Thanks for the heads-up about the Nintendo switch. I'll look into it more before deciding whether or not to purchase it
Nice video, I’ll definitely give Empowered a go, looking great!
I have that same panini maker and literally love it so much!!
I'm glad I purchased the new (Good Gather) flour from Target. This spring was a transition challenge for King Arthur Flour to ship due to increased demand from everyone deciding they needed to learn to bake at home. I moved in March & I think my old place had a bad mold problem (along with maintenance staff that was okay with neglecting any concerns I had!) In my new place I have had a lot of success making bread & pizza from scratch (5 ingredient Culinary Institute of America's Lean dough recipe & King Arthur Flour's Pizza dough) using AP flour or Whole wheat. Sometimes a mix of both. I have not tried to get Spelt floor, but my initial bread loafs where made with some old spelt flour I feared was on the way out. The lesson was the cheap all purpose flour is good enough. Bread flour is great, but AP flour is a great utility player. I still need to perfection my pastry technique. I think the summer will be time to play with pie, tart & other pastry techniques. Then see if there is a difference between AP flour & pastry flour.
Getting Empower. Love the video. Wanted to buy the lights, but no link. Now wondering why you don't have Amazon Associate links for the products? Newer older fan lol I've been buying a bunch of maxi dresses on Amazon & thrilled with an alternative that's somehow both more comfortable than sweatpants for Summer and look better, too. I'm also buying endless toys for my dog to shred. He's so spoiled now, he sits where I'm storing the new ones to beg for them like treats haha
I loooove the dip nail kits. I’ve been using them at home for over a year now.
Definitely interested in that light bar you showed. Can you share a link to the one you got?
I agree with the panini press, I have the same press and mostly make wraps in mine.
Do you have a link to that light bar? That would be awesome for mood lighting as well as for something to play around with in portrait photography
Try grilling the marks vertically then switching it horizontal you get a like cross pattern, tastes way better!!!
The sad thing about this is the majority of people only earn just enough money to get by on
@@spritsfal5088 preach
@@spritsfal5088 yeah I'm not talking about those people. I'm talking about people who actually struggle.
Most Americans live on credit and don’t make enough to get by.
@@jbar_85 Their problem is not making enough but spending too much.
In case anyone else is curious about air fryer tech, they are essentially convection ovens that circulate air faster.
My best purchase since the lock down was my air fryer. I love it. Never cooked before until this Air Fryer! Saved so much vs ordering doordash
Would you be willing to do a video on which desert communities are best to move to in LA county? I'm considering buying desert land to build a tiny house to get myself into California, and I'd love to hear your take on that :) I'm used to being far out in the country, not really bothered by that, but I'd love to know which communities you think are the safest, and which ones have the most to do.
Now I just need to buy an air fryer ! I’ve been thinking about it, so when I heard that crunch SOLD
I have a heated eyelash curler for lifting my eyelashes. It takes just a triple A battery which lasts a while, and definitely helps.
Love this vid
Is there an amazon link for that mood lights? looks really cool!
I love the air fryer 😍 Our does the microwave and toaster oven!
Nice video keep up the good videos.
Great video, Shelby! I totally understand why you haven't loved the Switch. Mario Kart and Mario Party are really not the best games for it, especially if you're playing by yourself. I know you aren't keen on spending more money on the Switch, but you *have* to at least try either Animal Crossing or Zelda. They are both in another league compared to the Mario games, and honestly those two games are the actual reason people buy the Nintendo Switch! It seems like we're going to be in quarantine a whole longer, and with how fun those games are it is *well* worth it for a measly $50/$60, now you already have the Nintendo Switch anyway!! Much love.
Do you have the link for the panini press?! I've been thinking about getting one but can't decide which one!
This was so good!
Oh my I made a great purchase. I’d love to see you review the Ninja Foodie Grill.
Shelby! Where did you get your sphere desk lamp from?
My purchases I made during this quarantine and love: ❤️AeroGarden (to harvest my own lettuce and herbs), ❤️Nespresso Vertuo (upgrade from my pixi and now I can make better coffee and latte than coffee stores).
Shelby, you should try and collab with Levi Kelly, he makes amazing videos on unique airbnb's including container homes!
Loved how you got a MIDI controller to learn keyboard 😅
Your mistake with the nintendo switch, was buying the wrong games, u bought many multiplayer games, which is great for after quarantine, but quarantine is meant for single player games. So BOTW, Animal Crossing, etc. They would’ve all been great games to choose from.
I just bought the book you recommended @Shelbychurch. 😊
Shelby you’re GORGEOUS 🤩😍
The magnetic lashes look pretty interesting. I may send some to my daughter-in-law for Christmas
Hi Shelby can you do more vlog on good bakery or cafe's in LA, the affordable, healthy places? I know with the restrictions of people not allowed going out to eat, what do people in LA or millennial your age do? I've seen many of your vlogs before the pandemic you travel a lot but it would be good to know good places in LA for walks, running or just leisure time.
Yep, I've also been making more and more of my purchases online now and most of the time when it arrives I'm thinking what did I order now! Lol
Looks so good! I wonder if it works in the UK 🇬🇧
I have the same panini maker. Love it!
Shelby can you link the RGB light bar please!
I love your videos Shelby! But new background music pleaseeeee. Find us some fresh tunes. Also agree on the waste of a switch. Did the exact same 😑 lol
I literally just finished reading the same book. I liked it a lot. I recommend it a 100% to anyone looking to improve your daily habits.
Finally I saw an American dressing a 'panino' with sense! Cheers from Italy 😊❤️
I have an air fryer but your looks so sleek! I want it!
Hi love your videos
I wanted a Switch so bad over quarantine lol how did you even find one?! I had to settle for the Lite because it was all I could find. I do still like it though.
Hi Shelby, can you link the things you got? I can’t find the light bar on amazon.
