Incredibly Dumb Products For Sale - Volume 1

Every once in a while, I marvel at how society as a whole has absolutely lost its way. One of the ways I keenly observe this trend is by finding products that truly are incredibly stupid. The mind boggling thing is, people actually buy these items.

A few of the five items I will be highlighting below are high in price, and my guess is, incredibly low in functionality. Consider this the first volume of my presentation of products you absolutely do not need.

Here's a few of my new favorites I discovered in the handy catalog of usefulness that I found in the airline seat back in front of me... the picture captions link to the actual products.


Indoor Dog Restroom
For only $99.95, you can get this genuine grass carpet on a piece of plastic. Too lazy to let your dog outside to relieve themselves? Why not them soil a carpet? Sounds totally logical to me! Need a replacement piece of grass carpet because you are too lazy to clean it? Why not just throw it away and replace it! It will only cost you $49.95. What a bargain!



iRestore Hair Laser
Described as a "new revolutionary device developed so you can take control of your thinning hair." This is a cheap find for only $499. You only need to pay 500 bucks and you too can look this stylish. The funny thing is, the guy they have modeling this thing has a full head of thick hair. Imagine showing this marvel off to your guys at the next football game. I want one simply because it looks so bad.


Pet Wheel-Away
How much will this handy little pull-behind set you back? Only $119.95! Granted I could buy a plastic foldup crate with a handle at Staples for less than $20 but hey... only the best for my pet? America has gone insane with all of the costumes, carpeted bed steps, and other absurd pet products on the market. Simply amazing...

Motorized Grill Brush
Grills can get messy. I understand that. Somehow, someone decided that they were so lazy that they needed a rotating motorized brush to scrape their grill for them. Hey, it even has a handy light so you can see what you are flipping in the dark. How many people do you know that grill food in the dark? Not many I gather! This gem of a find is only $19.99.

Sling Couture Face Mask
Ladies, want to look stylish at the club and still prevent getting the swine flu? Not into catching a cold or maybe a stomach bug but still want to go out and mingle with your friends? Why not pick yourself up a Sling Couture Face Mask! There are several fashionable fabric patterns available for both men and women. Guys, you'll be a hit at your next tee time with your palm tree fabric face mask! For only $9.95, this item is clearly a steal.



I find the products I mention above absurd. That's just my personal opinion and I mean no disrespect to those that may find them useful. Do you see these items as useful? If so, I'd love to hear from you in the comments below.
