Thank you for the video! I was going to guess $10-15K but everything adds up fast. How much did the gaming inventory cost? Another 5K?

I watch a bunch of these "opening a store" videos as we prepare to open our own. These guys waste so much money on things they don't need or can just do themselves. Tv installation? Shelve installation? Plant for the bathroom?

Why didn’t you install the tvs your self for free

Curious if this store survived a year of being in business?

1100 for a tv install? Why not you do it yourself?

I LOVE THIS STORE!

We killed Dracula, all thanks to my amazing sanity 🤣

Thank you for a really fun day!!! ❤

Battletoads - never got past that speeder bike section!

Good to see you back on KZbin

Nearly been a year since we popped in, can't wait to pass through the door again soon

Hello from.the UK! Hope you're keeping well and happy Lorcana day

Is this the first time they are making this boxes?

As of 7/17, a lot of stores are getting allocation numbers. This means you can feel a bit more secure about pre-ordering Lorcana products if you’re ordering from a trusted source.

There is so much bs online about running a kiosk. Thank you for your honest information.

Yeah, you described the push your luck mechanic. How far can you push your luck drawing new cards before it all comes falling down. Just... one... more...

Thanks Greats insights!

Nice to see another game store looking out for their community. I have managed a small store for almost a decade and I feel like I am watching our early days as a store and hearing about the same struggles and victories we have all been though. :) An idea for liquidating your Jumpstart boxes/boosters, host a learn to play event that is the same price of three boosters. Have the players mash two jumpstart packs together, as they are intended to be used, and play a swiss tourney with them. Then you can decide to award each player a prize pack for participating, or distribute the packs to those who finish x-1 or x-0 in the event. If you dont already, and it sounds like space is limited, but talk to your distributors about donating a few freebees to help with learn to play events. Then you can also have door prizes and give people something to walk away from outside of the cards they got from the two packs. Sometimes you have to gently let down the people who show up looking to spike the tournament, and if that happens, then just award the packs to each participant. Some people just see an event like this as an opportunity to walk away with 10 or so packs for the price of 3, and at the end of the day, that's not the spirit of what an event should be about, ever.

Loving the hat

Thanks Dustin for the nice interview! :)

We did really enjoy playing through Trekking Through History, had some delicious pizza that day too 😋

Thanks so much for having me on as a guest! It was great talking with you. I'm happy to return anytime! Oh, and we would love for anyone to join us as we journey through the collection over on our channel!

We adore Wild Serengeti ♥️

Thanks for having us in the store, we had a amazing time.

Thanks for the shout out! It was a great time last night playing games, and I look forward to doing that again some time in the future👍

Thanks for having me on, it was a joy to sit and talk. 👍

What does mental health and gaming mean to you?

I vote that Sam gets the point for the final question. Not biased or competitive at all. :)

By the way, I am loving the sound quality. Sounds great!

This is such a fun game! Great content. Gave you a sub👍

Looking good! Bring on the spreadsheet love!

So exciting!

Looking good!

Thanks for sharing the math this time!!!!

Glad you tried out the kiosk first before full B&M storefront. Don't worry about the distro being slow when you apply, they'll try to take care of you. You're going to keep seeing some of what you found in the kiosk true in the store. Especially Tuesday being a slow day :). I'd have liked to hear ballpark numbers on what the costs were at the kiosk, but understand you not wanting to share. Keep on keeping on, solid video, looks like you're starting with a decent selection of product so far. Hope all goes well for you, man :). Lastly, will your B&M be named BGE's Tabletop? If not, make sure to plug your store name next video :) (unless I missed it)

Thanks for being so candid about your experience! Wishing you a successful brick and mortar store! Keep it up 👍

Hey that's my name

Hello do you have any idea if there is a specific theory about game based learning? Thank you 😊

Inspiring. Keep being such good teachers 👍😘

There are some great tips and ideas here. This year, I was lucky enough to have an Apple TV box installed on the projector in my room, so I could put my phone on a tripod and point it at the City of Zombies board and project it where everyone could see it without having to gather around the board. I also developed Physical Distancing rules for our own Mathemagician's Duel, so that students could still play against each other without touching the same cards. My room for next school year doesn't have Apple TV, but the projector also isn't mounted to the ceiling, and has a a USB input. I'm hoping I can plug my phone directly into it to be able to project. And based on your recommendations here, I'm definitely also going to see if I can get a class set of white boards!

Middle school math teacher here ... great topic and good discussion. I am often jealous of LA and history teachers in their ability to incorporate student interests so easily into their curriculum. I think it is more challenging for the math teacher. But I love board games and I am looking for opportunities to hit curriculum topics with games in the classroom. Of course advisory provides another gaming opportunity and Wavelength looks like a great option. Thanks for the insights!

Thanks for having me on!!

Ooo! I did get the concept correct! I have that game and am looking forward to playing it with my class next school year. It was recommended by Kim Tolson, particularly as a precursor to essay writing and organizing paragraph topics, arguments, and supporting evidence/ideas.

hiii friends

You can play Kerbal Space Program to learn about space travel. I have a friend who learned multivariable calculus by inference playing the game :D
