A haul video is a video recording posted to the Internet[1][2][3] in which a person discusses items that they recently purchased, sometimes going into detail about their experiences during the purchase and the cost of the items they bought. The posting of haul videos (or hauls) was a growing trend between 2008 and 2016.[2][4][5][6] Often the items bought are books, clothing, groceries, household goods, makeup, or jewellery.
