Have you ever wanted something so badly... but not enough to wait in line and brave the elements for it? Well, the guys at 'Same Ole Line Dudes' will do it for you... for a price.
Have you ever wanted something in New York City so badly… maybe a dinner reservation or a new pair of sneakers… but you're just not feeling like braving the elements and waiting in line for it?Well, that's where Robert Samuel and Same Ole Line Dudes come in.The last time FOX 5 NY met with Samuel, he was saving a different kind of spot in line at COVID-19 testing sites.But years later, the business lessons learned from the pandemic are still paying off.
After he was fired from his job in 2012, Samuel got the idea to wait in line for a newer iPhone coming out for some extra cash."By the end of the night when the store opened, I had $325, and I just held on to that idea and here we are 13 years later," he recalled.Now Samuel and his team have grown into a 35-worker-strong lineup on any given day, waiting for reservations, sales at high-end retail stores or even a bowl of fresh pasta.And potential clients are taking note.
