In the video you see Sam driving to Asda late at night.

As he walked to the till he added: “I've cleared Asda of all his Lego, all on sale, and I think I'll make about £400 profit.”
Sam explained that his money-making hack had only taken him a few minutes as he loaded the boxes into his Mercedes.
Amazon FBA is a service that online sellers can use, where Amazon takes care of the storage, packaging and shipping of your products.
So all Sam has to do is send the products from Amazon and wait for the money to flow in.
The side hustle professional revealed he spent around £250 on the Lego, and thinks he can sell everything for £700, meaning he will have made a £400 profit.
Sam's video has clearly struck a chord with viewers, as it has already been viewed more than 670,000 times on the video sharing platform.
TikTok users rushed to the comments section to share their thoughts on Sam's “easy money” hack.
Many people accused him of making life more difficult for poorer people.
One user said: “People on low incomes shop at Asda because it's cheaper.
