Sun Chips Create Loudest Packaging in the World

I love Sun Chips and all of their delicious flavors, but the packaging on their new large bags is made from the loudest stuff on earth! I did not alter the sound in this video at all, and yes, it’s even that more annoying in person. What gives? UPDATE:  The bags are made from material [...]

Starbucks Reusable Cup: Savvy or Sucker?

I was in line for my afternoon pick-me-up at Starbucks on 15th and 9th today with my venti iced coffee cup in hand, prepared for my $.54 refill. Before I made it to the register my coworker Jenn pointed out a nifty reusable look-a-like on a shelf nearby. This Starbucks grande 16 Oz clear insulated [...]

I Like Method Green Tea Hand Wash

Quick post to show some love for a product that I really like. No sponsored promo or free stuff here—I just dig it. This green tea hand wash from Method is really good and if you’re an avid hand washer like me (OCD, anyone?) I would totally recommend it. The soap has a great scent, [...]

Every Man Jack Products Great For, Well, Every Man

I Love Post-it Notes

I am highly-organized, neat and a little obsessive, so if you know me at all it’s no shock to learn that I love Post-it notes. I have stickies up all the time at work and at home with little reminders to myself. I love being able to write down ideas and have them stare back [...]

Maybe You Shouldn’t Buy That

File this under “don’t buy stuff you cannot afford.” MaybeYouShouldntBuyThat.com is a collection of the most expensive and most worthless items in the world.
