Shadowing Practice: I Bought Every Walmart Limited Edition Product - Learn English Speaking with Video

Hey, this is every single limited edition product currently at Walmart.

And I bought them all.

Why?

I don't know.

I just kind of wanted to know which one's the best.

So let's get started.

Starting with birthday cake Oreos.

Someone needs to correct me if I'm wrong here, but I just swear I've seen these before.

Maybe there's just starting to be too many Oreo flavors for me to keep track of, but I swear I've seen these before.

But I will say they sound incredible.

So I'm going to go ahead and eat one.

All right, they're a little bit, uh, we'll do a little classic opener up.

You know, a little funfetti on a vanilla cookie.

Nothing to complain about.

Yeah, I'm liking the looks of this.

I do wish I had some milk to dip it in, but I'm out.

Probably should have thought about that before I started this, but it's okay.

I mean, these look fire.

Cheers.

Ow, I just cut the roof of my mouth.

Oh, man.

Starting off hot.

Dang.

Hold up.

These are fire.

I don't like birthday cake flavor that much.

I did not expect these to be this good.

All right, well, uh, these are incredible.

To be honest, I'm gonna give these things like an 8.1.

So you know what that means?

They take the lead.

Next up, we have a coastal coconut limited edition scented candle.

I didn't realize we were collecting candles these days, but apparently limited edition candles are a thing.

Now, I will be honest, uh, already I think the Oreos are gonna be tough to beat.

But hey, let's give this thing a sniff, shall we?

Ooh.

Wait a minute.

Oh, that is nice.

We gotta light this thing.

Let's light it up.

I am not gonna lie to you.

If it could light, that'd be great.

There we go.

Oh, yeah.

I just blew it out from laughing.

I gotta be honest.

I didn't really expect a candle to be, you know, one of my favorite items here, but this thing smells incredible.

Yeah, this thing smells great.

That's pretty much all I gotta say.

I'm straight up giving this thing an 8.2.

Sorry, Oreos.

You've already been dethroned.

They take the lead.

I'm also gonna go ahead and just kind of slide it over there.

Make the room smell nice.

Next up, we have Star Wars Goldfish.

This is another one I swear I've seen before.

Are we making up the whole limited edition thing?

Because it kind of feels like it.

But an out of this world snack.

That was clever.

I'll give you that one.

I think they're just cheddar goldfish.

So I imagine they're gonna be the exact same as normal goldfish.

Just with different fun shapes.

Which I mean, I guess I'm down with.

What do we have?

Sure.

Let's try the Stormtrooper.

Man, I haven't eaten a regular goldfish in years.

Now it's all about the flavor blasted ones.

No one eats regular goldfish, but I did forget how good they were.

And I would say they hit different, but it's a Stormtrooper.

They can't hit anything, if you know you know.

6.8.

Bet you didn't expect this one.

It is a limited edition reserve collection deodorant.

What happened to society that made us go, Let's make limited edition deodorant.

People will love it.

You can't collect everything.

Some things you just gotta use.

Well, um, apple cider and bourbon.

That actually does sound fire.

I'm not gonna lie.

Well, isn't there supposed to be like a protective cover on this thing?

Am I tripping?

They normally have some sort of thing that you pull off, right?

Should I not use this?

I mean, it doesn't look like it's been used.

That's fine.

Get a little whiff.

Oh, wow.

I might take back what I said.

Maybe we should make limited edition sense.

Oh my gosh.

This might be my favorite deodorant I've ever smelled.

I'm not even kidding.

Why is this incredible?

Wait, screw limited edition.

100

Can we bring this to a real thing?

101

I gotta put it on.

102

Oh, that is magical.

103

That is nothing short of magical.

104

Um, I can't believe I'm saying this, but, uh, limited edition deodorant.

105

I'm giving this an 8.8.

106

It takes the lead.

107

That brings us to limited edition Harry Potter fudge strips.

108

Butterbeer flavored.

109

I'm gonna make a confession here that could get about 8.7% of you, uh, to no longer like me.

110

Never read or watched Harry Potter.

111

I'm sorry, I know, but, hey, if it tastes good, it tastes good.

112

It's not gonna affect the score.

113

Now, I have, however, gone to Disney World, and one of them has Harry Potter theme and they have a butterbeer that you can buy.

114

And I gotta be honest, it's pretty good.

115

It actually is fire.

116

Let's see how Keebler did making the butterbeer flavor.

117

Cheers.

118

Oh, this has a weird scent.

119

I mean, they're okay, I guess.

120

4.3.

121

Now, this is what I'm excited for.

122

Carrot Cake Hostess Mini Donuts.

123

And see, this is a sensible limited edition product.

124

It's for Easter, right?

125

Springtime, carrots.

126

Like, this makes sense.

127

Some of the things that they make, I just, I don't get.

128

Like, why are there limited edition bathroom scents?

129

I know we haven't got there yet, but why does this exist?

130

These, this could be the pinnacle.

131

This could be the pinnacle.

132

This could, I will predict it right now.

133

10 bucks, this wins the video.

134

And I'll be honest, if it doesn't win, it doesn't win.

135

But I'll put 10 bucks on it.

136

Comment, I accept the bet in the comments.

137

And if I'm wrong and they don't win, I'll send one of you a $25 Walmart gift card.

138

I'm not kidding.

139

Make the comment.

140

But I know I'm gonna be right.

141

And the reason I know that is because it's Hostess.

142

I mean, what are we doing?

143

These things, I don't know if you guys are a fan of the good old powdered donut version of these.

144

The original powdered donut.

145

But I will say the powdered donut version, I'm not kidding you when I say it.

146

If I buy a bag of the powdered donuts, They are gone in a night.

147

There are 15 donuts in this bag.

148

I'm not kidding you.

149

Without fail, they're gone in a night.

150

These probably will be too, but we won't talk about that.

151

Carrot cake.

152

Oh, they don't smell that good.

153

Maybe I regret making the $25 bet now.

154

All I'm saying is, uh, i guess make sure you subscribe so

155

that you can see who wins in the next video

156

because uh i have a feeling i might be wrong about

157

this okay hang on oh hang on now oh man i

158

got the chills i take back what i took back they are indeed worthy of winning the video

159

but we still have quite a few products left so there's a good chance it gets deep thrown.

160

But for now, giving them a 9.1 and they take the lead.

161

That brings us to Febreze Georgia Peach Orchard.

162

I mean, yeah, we're back in no man's land.

163

Why are we making limited edition Febreze?

164

Just make a peach flavor.

165

Fla- scent.

166

I'm not spraying this stuff directly into my mouth.

167

Just make a peach flavor.

168

It's not, that's not even a weird thing to to do.

169

Like, that is like a normal thing.

170

Why is this limited edition?

171

Well, I guess, I mean, who knows?

172

Maybe I'm wrong.

173

Maybe it's incredible.

174

I mean, let's just try it out.

175

I have a bone to pick though here with Walmart delivery.

176

Uh, cause I, I'm too lazy and I got all this delivered from Walmart.

177

I know, I know.

178

I should probably be ashamed of that, but they were out of the one pack that I wanted.

179

So instead of asking me or, you know, canceling the item,

180

they just automatically made it the two-pack and charged me double what I was expecting to get charged.

181

How are you not going to at least check with me first?

182

That just doesn't even seem right.

183

All right, well, I guess let's try the Febreze.

184

So I guess hopefully it smells good because now I have to use two of these. That was a lot.

185

Oh, crap.

186

Yep, that smells like I'm giving away a $25 gift card.

187

Oh my, that is incredible.

188

Uh, take back what I said.

189

Actually, no, I don't.

190

Make this a normal flavor.

191

Screw limited edition.

192

Just make it a normal scent.

193

Because this is incredible.

194

You tell me, does it not smell like a 9.4?

195

Hold up, I have an idea.

196

Kids do not try this at home.

197

Will this put the candle out?

198

Or is it just going to make the flame a flamethrower?

199

Oh wow, yep, it put it out.

200

Wait, does that make coconut peach?

201

Oh, okay, coconut and peach, that smells good.

202

Oh, almost forgot.

203

They take the lead.

204

All right, next up, chocolate strawberry Cheerios.

205

I'm not against this.

206

What I am against is the fact that I don't have any milk.

207

I guess we're just gonna eat it straight.

208

I think that's not Not that weird of a thing to do with cereal though.

209

I mean, a lot of people eat it dry.

210

Crack this baby open.

211

All right.

212

I like the fun colors, reminiscent of a strawberry a good touch now we're talking

213

so uh these things are amazing unfortunately i don't think they're as good as the febreze

214

but they are great i'm gonna give them 8.3 all right

215

this one i don't know about orange cream pop cupcakes

216

and we're back in hostess land now the reason i don't

217

know about this one is i well this is a personal thing i just don't really I like orange popsicles.

218

Yeah, that's another 8.7% gone.

219

But I just, I can't make it up.

220

I just, they're not that great.

221

I don't know.

222

I feel like it actually could have more potential not being an ice cream

223

and instead being a baked good with some cream inside it.

224

Maybe I'm wrong, though.

225

Let's give them a shot.

226

Rack these babies open.

227

Oh, it'll smell really orangey.

228

Um, yeah, I mean, maybe I should spray.

229

I was gonna say put some Febreze on it, But I don't think that's a good idea.

230

Let's try it.

231

What is this?

232

Did I get it done?

233

Or is that the whole package?

234

You see this?

235

You see how they're supposed to be cream filled?

236

Yeah.

237

Okay.

238

See, that one has cream in it.

239

What?

240

I got a Hostess cupcake with no cream in it.

241

Oh yeah, that was way better.

242

Oh man.

243

Oh man, it's hard to be mad now.

244

I'm not gonna lie.

245

I'm sorry, hostess, but where is the quality control?

246

I should not be receiving a cupcake with no filling if that's how it's advertised.

247

In fact, that's kind of the whole point.

248

It's an orange cream pop.

249

So even though it tastes delicious when it's made right, if this is a game of chance, I don't want to spend my hard-earned money.

250

2.4.

251

All right, now on to the weirdest one of them all.

252

Who in the boardroom said, Hey, let's make limited edition bathroom southern lilac morning scented pods.

253

Now that is an idea that most people would probably say why to.

254

Not Febreze.

255

Febreze said, let's just do it.

256

Which I can respect, but they gotta smell good.

257

I haven't smelled these things yet.

258

So I guess let's just give them a sniff and maybe I'll just end up putting them in my bathroom.

259

Oh, there it is.

260

Oh, okay.

261

I mean, it's kind of nice.

262

That smell smells familiar.

263

I'm 99% sure this is like the classic smell in every public restroom.

264

Oh yeah, no, for sure.

265

They're definitely using this in public restrooms.

266

I've smelled this smell a dozen, hundreds of times, actually.

267

I won't, I'm not gonna lie.

268

Hundreds of times.

269

Yeah, it smells like a classic public restroom.

270

Which isn't awful, but I don't want my home smelling like that.

271

5.2.

272

I can't believe I'm saying this, even though this Febreze product stunk.

273

Febreze air freshener has somehow won the video.

274

Go figure.

275

I don't even...

276

Oh, in case you wanted a second one.

277

I don't even know exactly what to say about that.

278

I don't know if I should feel proud or disappointed.

279

Do better, Walmart.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
