No. I hate receiving these. So annoying and hard to dispose of.

Why would you be disposing of them? Re-charge and use again. Friends constantly ask to borrow ours when we are out and about because they don’t have one.

And no matter how many chargers you have given them, it still happens, did you not notice?

What are dude wipes?

My son's bathroom is never without them. They are exactly what they sound like. I never heard of them until I visited his first solo apartment.

That's like the annoying collection of cheap work swag I have piling up in drawers that I can't quite bring myself to throw away.

Wait - what are these things! I'm off to google them now. It may be perfect for my kids.

Yeah the first rule of sock rings is that you can no longer peeeeeel off your socks and scatter them in your bed.

Wait, how does this prevent people from scattering their socks, kicking them under the bed, one in the pants leg and one wandering alone, etc?

AAA is not great either. If you break down or get in an accident their tow trucks could be 2 hours. Police tow is 30 mins or less.

the police don’t want to jump your dead battery or get the keys out of a locked car. There are also great AAA benefits like passport renewal, discounted travel, free passport photos 1x/year. Etc

Car window breaker and seatbelt cutter. Now that windows are electric, they won’t work if your car is submerged, and the water pressure is too much to open the door. It’s a cheap safety device to keep in your center console.

I have a very minimalist kitchen and avoid single-use gadgets as much as possible. BUT, the OXO pineapple tool is truly amazing. I love it SO much (because I love pineapple so much) - it makes peeling and cutting a breeze!!

I haven’t read the thread but I’d appreciate:

-Air Tags
-Bluetooth earbuds (my dog keeps destroying mine).
-cute kitchen wash cloths and dish towels (we use a new one each day)
- tea
- hand cream (i go through gobs of it)
- office supplies (nice pens, notebooks)
- endurance sports things (foot lube, gels, energy bars, bug wipes, sunscreen packets, headlamp batteries)

Both. His & hers.

Organic pears or apples. No worries about major pesticides. If they aren't as good as expected they can be used in purees or smoothies. Everyone needs to eat. You won't offend someone who is trying to lose weight. It won't take up space after a week.

Bombas lover here. They have different styles and levels of compression. Sounds like you got compression. My kids steal mine all the time and they are rough. My oldest pair are 4 years old - no holes. I got a pair of the wool knee highs for my sister this year.

My practical gift - a car window smasher/seatbelt razor duel tool (may you never have to use it). Plus car flairs and jumper cables.
