We have all seen advertisements for product that enticed us into believing that “I just can’t do without that!” and “I must have one!” We have fallen in love with the idea that the advertisement is selling. I say idea because even though the idea is great that doesn’t mean that the product is going to live up to the expectation that you have drawn up in your head.
The tip today to save you money and wasted space is to get on your computer and look for product reviews for these “must have” items before you rush out to buy them. Granted you can’t always believe the reviews either but if there is any doubt that the item won’t live up to your expectations and is probably just going to become a dust collector in you home, then you need to think twice about buying it.
I need a new mixer at the moment but the one that seems to suit my need the best doesn’t have good reviews so I am taking my time looking for alternatives that may work better for me. Lets face it if it is something you don’t need immediately you can take a bit of time to shop sensibly.
My item for today is an old pair of reading glass I have kept “just in case” but the nose rest are broken off and that causes irritation to my skin. It is time to go.

LOL!
Don’t feel bad. I recently threw out about THIRTY, count them 30, pair of drug store issued glasses. For decades, I worried “What if… they quit making reading glasses?”
And I only threw out the broken ones!
On the other hand, they did not take up all that much room! ;o)
