Top 10 Things You Buy that are Not Worth It

The Top Ten
Trading Cards

It's a piece of cardboard!

Bouncy Balls

They will either get stuck up high somewhere, disappear in the yard, break a window, or end up in some little kid's nostril.

They will probably go under the couch on day one.

Basically every useless knickknack you can get either 1) for free or 2) for ten tickets at an arcade.

Toys You Get Out of a Machine

Oh boy, a Minnie Mouse comb...

Whoopee! A Doc McStuffins glitter hairbow!

Cinema Tickets

Yes, it's cool to watch something on a big screen.
Yes, you get to see something early.
But the price is ridiculous. You could wait until the DVD comes out and get it much cheaper.

Legos

Buy. Unbox. Build. Leave forever.

Memberships
Tiny Plastic Toys

The ones in Kinder eggs are fun but pretty useless. As a hoarder already, these are a nightmare.

Cigarettes

I'm a smoker and buy them because I need them, but if I had to start over, I would never have touched them. It's a heavy drug that gives you zero pleasure, but once you're hooked, you can't live without them. Believe me, I've tried several times to stop, but without success.

Paying for cancer sounds like a terrible deal to me.

You buy them, smoke, and then get health problems and eventually die. You're basically spending hundreds, or even thousands, of dollars to kill yourself!

Hardback Books

I only want these if it's Christmas or my birthday. So... only a 1-day difference.

Small Notebooks

I hate these. They only have around 20 sheets, and there's barely enough space to write on because the rectangular shape is too long and thin. They are so tiny and easy to lose that you end up putting them in the back of a drawer, only to find them again when you're cleaning a year later. People think they'll use them, but the only reason they buy them is because they feature a popular and well-liked character.

The Contenders
Extra Pencils
New DVD Releases

When they first come out, you pay full price. If you can wait a while (until the movie is no longer a hot topic), you can get it much cheaper.
