Marilyn's Photos - Mar 18 2026 - Silly Products

 

Homesense is a very busy store.  I was there on a Sunday afternoon and it was filled with people.  I looked at the lineup in front and behind me to check out.  There were some nice things people bought, and some silly, even stupid things.  So I went looking for clearly stupid things. The website is about Stupid Stuff “We get people coming into our store from time to time and they look around and they ask, why would anybody buy these gift things. Apparently they think it is a bunch of STUPID STUFF.  Well maybe it is, maybe it isn't.  Either way, we know we love it.  So if it is just too stupid for you then you should shop for your gifts and stuff in Walmart or your local grocery store.  You won't find stupid stuff there.  Everyone else... welcome!” Mostly there’s a lot of profanity and farts.  Lots of cats, somehow.  This is nose aerobics basketball.   Heading over to Good Housekeeping they have done a search on Amazon and have come up with very fine products. This is the Ostrich Pillow below.  Then there’s a mobile phone jail cell, a wearable shark blanket - and it says 3,000 shoppers purchased last month, so I guess we shouldn’t be too superior.  There’s charcoal companion meat shredder claws - it says actually useful for cooking.  And the highlight is the personalized cardboard cutout - you send an image and height specifications and get a larger-than-life cardboard cutout.  They are all HERE. Maybe the topic came to my mind when I saw this picture I took of warped window reflections.
