shopping

Shoutout to @KeatonPatti for the beautiful work on the captions with these various treasures from the antiques roadshow. They're absolutely inaccurate, but still seem like they could be on point at the same time. Now that is art. 

This buyer is just trying to teach a flaky seller a valuable lesson in how to do business. They're all about upholding that honor!

Shopping isn't for everyone. Sometimes, you follow your partner into those maze-like malls and just decide that it's time for a nice snooze. These guys got to catch up on some rest at least! 

It's the most wonderful time of the year! These guys look like they dread the holiday shopping outing every year. They clearly want to be anywhere but the mall, waiting, while their significant other tries on all the clothes, and debates over what shirt might look the best. 

You may have seen sponsored ads for random doodads in your various feeds from time to time. Since online stores will sell everything and anything, people find themselves seeing ads for stuff that you uh.. normally wouldn't see ads for. Not just sex stuff, but strange products with almost no discernable use, or at least something that seems like a very questionable purchase for 3 dollars. The world of online shopping can be strange, with people dropping creative reviews for stuff like massagers, or funny reviews for just about anything else.

Just cause these are being hailed as the "most useless inventions" of all time, doesn't mean that someone out there couldn't find a use for something ingenious as the sweat gutters. You never know what people might be on the lookout for. 

By the looks of these classy meets trashy moments, we'd say that Target serves as a solid example of the place people go to, when they're willing to spend a little extra money. If these left you wanting the full experience of Walmart going crazy, we recommend checking these out to get your fix. 

Someone on AskReddit asked people to share those things that people should seriously stop buying. Whether it's buying into MLMs, or purchasing those sketchy bath products that give off all kinds of questionable chemicals, the following should serve as a guide into how you can avoid spending your money recklessly. 

People seem to carry around the impression that quotes mean emphasis. This makes for some odd and amusing times when quotation marks were definitely unnecessary. 

These sleepy men were committed to seeing their shopping tasks through. Sometimes the shopping just gets to you, and you need to grab a quick snooze. And what better place than the comfortable, air-conditioned confines of a nice store with piles of plush clothing that serve as great makeshift pillows. 

When this guy went on Amazon to purchase some new iPhone cables, he almost accidentally bought a shitty product with a weak rating, due to strange and shady selling tactic. As it turns out, the key to making sure you don't get misled by reviews that are being featured for a product they were never written for in the first place, is to sort the reviews by "most recent." 

These are the kind of reviews that we live for. We're pretty certain this guy pulled this story out of thin air. He absolutely gets bonus points for the creativity and lovable stupidity though. 

In our world of buyer beware, all you have is your wits keeping you from falling prey to manipulative and terrible products and ads. It's even harder when you're shopping online, since not seeing a physical version of the product will pit your expectations vs reality. These people definitely felt the pain of misleading advertising and the results are pretty damn funny.

Careful, these Twitter users sharing the stuff that they're old enough to remember might overwhelm you with nostalgia. That or you're going to feel very old. 

Some people might say these toys shouldn't exist, but others out there probably can't get enough of them! They bring just the right amount of weird and dark humor for our liking. 

Twitter User @allieward, started a viral Twitter thread when she complained to Macy's about the recent release of their "portion control" plates in stores. The feedback was largely one of disapproval, and people really started getting into it in the comments section. Eventually Macy's intervenes, and announces that they will in fact be removing the plates from all stores cause they "missed the mark" on this one. What do you think? A bunch of overreacting and unnecessary drama, or did Macy's cross the line on this one.
