Walmart vs. Bass Pro Shops - $500 Winter Survival Challenge!
Video summary
Press to jump
- 0:36Store assignments send Josh and Britton to Walmart and Brock to Bass Pro Shops.
- 1:05The Walmart shoppers agree to alternate picks without buying the same items.
- 5:46Britton chooses a camping stove, prompting Josh to buy a propane pizza oven.
- 8:24Brock saves money by purchasing a discounted display stove.
- 13:58The brothers reach the cold mountain site and lay out their purchases.
- 19:38Britton and Josh pitch tents while Brock searches for level ground.
Dude Life's Josh ends up buying a propane pizza oven because Britton has already claimed the camping stove. That is the wrinkle in the brothers' latest shopping challenge: the two assigned to Walmart take turns picking gear, and neither can choose the same item as the other.
Brock shops alone at Bass Pro Shops, where a discounted display stove helps stretch his $500 budget. Then all three take their purchases into the mountains for a below-freezing overnight stay. The shopping baskets make an entertaining contrast before anyone pitches a tent: Britton prioritizes a heater, Josh has his pizza plans, and Brock has to make pricier equipment fit the same allowance. The video includes a sponsored cash-advance app segment.
Their only upload this week, "Walmart vs. Bass Pro Shops - $500 Winter Survival Challenge!", has reached roughly 780,000 views and is currently drawing the channel's largest daily audience. Viewers are busy discussing the heater and pizza-oven operation, while several propose a particularly brotherly follow-up: everyone shops separately for a shared camp without knowing what anyone else has bought. What could possibly be missing?
The mountain theme has momentum beyond this trip. "We Bought Inflatable A-Frame Cabins from Temu, Amazon & TikTok Shop" remains a substantial daily draw, followed by the Costco overnight challenge's improvised desert shelters.
Dude Life added about 20,000 subscribers over the week, although daily viewing is currently below its usual level. Among nearby challenge channels, Dan woolley had a much larger week for views, while Dude Perfect Plus was quieter. For Dude Life, the newest camping trip is doing the most work, with those inflatable cabins providing a sizeable second source of viewing.

I love that no matter what happends or goes wrong yall are always giggling and having a good time 😂
@PrimmAnn13See it on YouTubeVideo idea: Each brother goes shopping individualy for the group but each brother doesn't know what any other got. So they have to guess what the others bought to get everything they need.
@EyeDewDieSee it on YouTubeHere's a video idea guys, all brothers went into one shop. Everyone should buy things for outdoor. But the catch is NO COORDINATION. So nobody knows who buys what and have to kind of guess what the others would buy to survive together. It could be good fun and surprise when nobody bought a tent, or a pad, or seasoning. because everyone thought the other brothers are going to be the one that buy it.

Everyone should do the storage shed pick because you have so much in there. Or do one where your dad makes 3 mystery boxes and you have to camp with that. Draw for picks.
@AmyKoontz-o6vSee it on YouTubeHammock Challenge. Make it happen. It won’t be your normal challenge format, but it will definitely be “trying new stuff”.
