Speaker 1 (00:00):
Renting clothes is kind of interesting. Huh.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
I guess people are doing this. I have heard of
Rent the Runway. I believe my cousin worked for them
in college. I've heard of the show. No, what was
that Hit the run Way? I would say, I've never heard.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Of Rent the Runway.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Just may come to a surprise team Rent the Runway,
you know, Ashley, I didn't watch any runways.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
I remember what come on? You watched America's Next Top Model.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
Oh there is a thing called Rent the Runway.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Baby, eight hundred four oh nine ninety three ninety three.
I actually wants to talk about renting clothes. Tell me more.
Speaker 3 (00:39):
Yeah, a lot of people. I guess they're renting clothes.
And it's not even just like prom dresses, because I
know there were a lot of girls who rented prom dresses.
But I think, you know how, you aren't someone who
can share shoes.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
My mom always said, don't ever share someone's shoes because
then you'll walk their footsteps.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
See Joe, and I am someone who can't rent clothes
out of I'm okay with the shoes, but the clothes,
I can't do it. Like, why would I get a
cool shirt just to give it back. Absolutely not. I
want it forever. Maybe I just like to keep the items,
but no, I want it.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
Well, maybe you might be like me where you dressed
like a cartoon character, where yeah, you literally wear two
pairs of pants, and you may have a thousand graphic
T shirts, but you can't really only wear two.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
Of them and I really like them.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
That'd be crazy if I rented just a black T shirt,
I've got enough of them, or a white one. Anyone
rent clothes eight hundred four ow N ninety three ninety three.
What would you not want to rent eight hundred four
ow N ninety three ninety three. Maybe it's closed, maybe
it's shoes.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
I'm okay with renting because I love you. Been trying
to get a vacuum cleaner? Why do they rent vacuum cleaners?
Speaker 1 (01:53):
They do rent a center.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
That's but that's isn't that when you want to keep
it for a while?
Speaker 1 (01:57):
What is rent to center you wish to do?
Speaker 4 (02:00):
Back in the day. I mean, I shouldn't have said
it without you know, Goo going in and researching it.
But yeah, back in the day, Joe, you used to
be able to like rent TV electronics. Yeah, so I'm
pretty sure under that banner Ashley they had you could
rent because it was such a big deal back in
the day.
Speaker 5 (02:15):
The dice.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Yeah, the back in the day. You could rent the
dice in vacuums like the ball vacuums and stuff.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
Because I don't want it forever.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
It says one hundred dollars a week. Crazy for vacuum.
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
It didn't happen if you could get approved for up
to one hundred dollars a week or four thousand dollars
in merchandise.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
No, that's probably how much you can spend on the merchandise,
like they're giving you X amount of dollars.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
Yeah, you can rent refrigerators. Yeah, you want it for
like a party.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Let's say, let me see how much it is to
rent out. Because I really do need a vacuum. I
will run vacuum for two days actually a day for
about fifteen dollars.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
But I would pretty much rent Joe any single clothing
item except for socks and underwe Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
But they got to get back to being able to
rent video games and movies. You can rent movies still,
when's the last time you guys rented a movie?
Speaker 4 (03:08):
Oh god, this is probably back when Family Video was
just had the CBD.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
I read videos on I rent videos and movies on
YouTube all the time.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
Yeah about say I rented the last movie was probably
twenty twenty three when I had to rent How the
Grinch Stoe Christmas on Amazon Prime and you only got
it for like ninety days and you got to give
it back.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Really, Apple's like, what seventy two hours? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Yeah, in the moment, in the moment you watch it,
you get twenty four hours day.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
I was thought I'd pause it at the credits.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
No, it's not about pausing it. You get seventy two
hours or.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
To watch it in the moment it starts, like if
you were to accident even click on it. Then at
twenty four hour timer starts and no matter where you were,
it's just done.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
That's kind of shady. Yeah, we getting screwed over. I
don't really care for the whole renting video games. No
want to play that over and over and over again.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Game stop or not? Game stop? Best by? No, what
the hell am I talking? Blockbuster? There you go. Yeah,
but you have to get it. It was the best
part about being a kid.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
You can beat the Game of Seven Days or a weekend.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Well like you kind of like, yeah, oh you were good, huh.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Or they would have like video game specials actually where
you could get game for like ninety days for like
ten dollars.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
And I couldn't convince my parents to get me like
the mature games like Grand Theft Auto or That's where
You Go. Even Simpson's Hit and Run was a tough
get for my parents. So they would allow me to rent.
I don't know if they'd like why they thought that day, Well,
if he just rents it.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
It's okay.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
This is not in the house like for a long time.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
He can throw Molotov cocktails on ambulances for a weekend,
but that's it. Hey, Joe, Yeah, you ever use rent
to Center?
Speaker 5 (04:51):
I actually used Aaron to get my PS five, and
it's rent to own, so you pay on it until
you pay off, as pretty much pay it off, but
you do end up paying more for it because of
the interests.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Which one did you use Aaron's rent to own? I
remember this company.
Speaker 5 (05:08):
Rent at Center, the rent a Center, Arrans and Buddies,
they're all the same thing.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
Oh by god, you could rent a TV for thirteen dollars. Yeah,
but then you pay over one hundred weeks, So yeah,
you're right, the interests will get you.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
What is one hundred weeks? Why would uh? Why would they?
Speaker 2 (05:24):
I hate when people do that? What Joe and Ashley
listen to this? Why give me that? That's like when
there's a baby and it's like how old is a baby?
And they're like, oh, it's forty seven months? Okay, yeah,
and you're like, are you really gonna make me do
the math on this one right now?
Speaker 5 (05:42):
It's just how they do it.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
Makes it sound good. Maybe I don't know.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
Aaron's rent to own is on weeks one hundred and
four weeks?
Speaker 3 (05:49):
Oh, come, I get a week's is crazy?
Speaker 1 (05:51):
What is one hundred and four weeks?
Speaker 5 (05:53):
You can change it from weeks some months on their
website when you're actually looking at specific items. Once you
select that item, you can go down you'll see how
much you pay weekly and how much you pay a monthly.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Well, let's take a look at this Dolby Vision four
KUHD element. Let's let's look at this frame list so
that about. Let's look at how much that would cost
if we just bought it. I'm gonna do this, I'm
gonna copy, I'm gonna pay.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Some Okay, no one has vacuums.
Speaker 5 (06:24):
If anybody's looking, do you do they have a ninety
days same as same as pass. When you're looking at
the website, I'll tell you how much it'll be if
you do the ninety days same as pass, and how
much it'll be that you'll pay in total once you
finish paying it off if you only do the minimum payments.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
See and this is where things get weird. So this
TV right is one thousand, four hundred and thirty nine
dollars after you rent it for that long and then
you own it one four hundred and thirty nine dollars.
Or you can go to best Buy right now now
and get it for four hundred dollars.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
Oh wow, Yeah, do you research.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
It before you do that? Joe?
Speaker 5 (07:07):
Not usually my PS five. I wanted a PS five,
so I just say I go there five hundred bucks.
I'm just gonna do the rent all.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Let's look at PS five's right now at rent to center.
You can you can do one hundred. Do the math
on this one, Jed one hundred and seventy nine times eighteen.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
Oh my god, that's a lot times eighteen. That's three
two and twenty two dollars. Stop playing.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Let's look at the retail price of a PlayStation five.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
It's five hundred dollars.
Speaker 5 (07:45):
Okay, mine, I was paying twenty five dollars a week,
and I think it was like twenty four months.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
All right, dude, twenty five times twenty four, twenty five.
This is bad that I'm not this good.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
I'm an hundred dollars, Joe. I think what we're learning
right now is maybe we need to just finance with
best Buy.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
Probably. I love it. Thanks for filling me in the
long run.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Yeah, but I but you know what, At the same time,
too though sometimes it being more expensive, but I only
have to pay twenty five bucks is a little bit
more attractive.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
And I can't rent a vacuum from best Buy. I
can't rent it from Aaron's.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Look at that.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Yeah, by the way, our friend Aaron, maybe we can
rent things. Yeah, thank you, Joe, you're the best.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Love when you're coming. How's the route going this morning?
Speaker 5 (08:36):
Uh, it's pretty easy. I'm on to recycling route today.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
Good stuff, my man, I love it. Oh, by the way,
do they ever try to recycle things? It can't be
recycled all the time. Annoying.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
Jed's the cannon.
Speaker 5 (08:51):
Just put it back in the cannon.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Leave it annoying, all right, Joe. You you keep doing
that too. Police them on that, because don't be a douche. Guys,
don't do that. Don't do it to Joe. Joe's working hard.
Speaker 5 (09:02):
