You Bought WHAT?

It's Monday and time to join Stasha over at The Good Life for Monday Listicles! Each week Stasha gives us a theme for our lists. This week, our topic is our 10 Dumbest Purchases. 

This one is going to require some major thought because, for the most part, my purchases are not spur of the moment but, rather, researched and thought out. So, I decided to sit here and look around the house for things I wish I had never bought because it's just taking up space or didn't work or wasn't what someone claimed it to be and I discovered that maybe I don't research and think as much as I thought I did. Go figure.

Of course, if I had gone with the 10 Dumbest Purchases made by the husband, this would have gone a lot quicker. And WAY over ten. :)

Next week's list will be 10 Things You Are Proud Of.

All you have to do to join in with this week's list is click on the button!




TEN DUMBEST PURCHASES:
1. Just about every gift I've ever given my dad who goes out and buys everything he wants/needs when the spirit moves him leaving very little left for the rest of us. Though he really thought the slippers with the LED headlight in the front I got him the Christmas after he rammed his toe into the lounger one night was funny

2. Nothing that I've ever bought from the Dollar Store! How I LOVE that place. L.O.V.E.

3. That one exercise video that was made by the spawn of Satan Amy Bento- Hi/Lo Xtreme. Nobody wants to workout that hard for any reason EVER. Not to mention that nobody is truly THAT coordinated.

4. Nothing that I've ever bought at Michael's. Another store that I ADORE!

5. Those organizer thingies that go on the back of the front seats of the car. Really dumb. Cause nobody in this family ever put anything inside one of those.

6. I haven't bought one of these BUT I'm pretty sure that Rollie Eggmaster thing would totally suck.



7. These 12 x 12, three-ring scrapbooks that I really liked but didn't think it through as they do not fit on any shelf in our house.
 Besides, I really wanted these:
Only NOT in pink and blue. How trite. Anyway, now I'm stuck with the wrong ones and trying to justify spending the money on the ones I want. Sheesh.

8. Shoes for the lovelies when they were babies. How dumb. Babies don't walk. Duh.

9. All those little trinkets that sit on the shelves because I like them or they look so pretty. Yeah, well, you have to dust those darn things.

10. O,O,O!!! Remember the Veg-o-Matic? Well, I don't remember whether it was the ACTUAL product or a reasonable facsimile BUT, I got one and I used it like twice before the darn thing broke into a gazillion pieces! Just use a knife. Or a food processor. LOL
