Is there any way to save these on my computer?

[C. Fontaine]

Off Youtube, not that I know of.  I'll probably be posting the full video in MPEG format on the site soon.  It will be a large file though.

I don't know what browser you are using, but if it's Firefox, you might be interested in giving this a go:

The people are so funny.  The guy could go on to become a game show host and then there's "rapping granny!"

Does any one no what stores these are filmed at?

I bought a bunch of VHS tapes from an Ames during fixture liquidation and I got a loss prevention video and Craft Department planogram reset tape. I don't remember if this video is the same as these loss prevention tapes, I'll try and dig it out one of these days. Some of the others were interesting security camera tapes and time lapse tapes of the store.

That would be awesome, keep us informed!  8)

[C. Fontaine]

That would be pretty awesome!  I'd be willing to pay your shipping charges both ways if you'd be willing to send them to me to digitize.

Okay, after the LONGEST time, these are the three YTPs that I made:

Made using Adobe Premiere Elements.  Took about 6 hours to do. Made using the new employee orientation video.

Also made using Premiere.  Took maybe 1.5 to 2 hours.  It may or may not upload right, I'll see.
Edit: didn't upload right.  Link removed.

Aaaaannnd evidently "Hotel Mario's A+ Service" got taken down.  It was probably because I used They Might Be Giants, who are on a WMG label.

I have to try and find this to post for you guys.

When I worked for Hills they produced a video that was shown to open the annual meeting.
It was sent out to the stores at the beginning of a VHS tape with highlights of the meeting.
It was so hilarious I grabbed it and took it home, and still have it buried somewhere with my old tapes.

They basically lifted the dogfight footage straight out of the movie Top Gun and electronically
pasted store logos on the helmets of the pilots.   Tom Cruise was wearing the Hills logo.   The
MIG pilots had logos for Kmart, Walmart, etc. posted to their helmets.   And of course the
Hills pilot was blasting the competition out of the sky.

As we were scuffling towards another bankruptcy, out in the stores we did not know
whether to laugh or cry.

Did you ever find that video?

No, my house is kind of a mess right now because my mom died and we quickly had
an offer on her house where the people wanted to close in 30 days.  So now I have
her clutter and my clutter to wade through.
