We are born and bred consumers. We don't care what we pay for the things we have always bought.

This reminds me of the last time I bought Colgate toothpaste and was brought back to 'truth in advertising' which includes the packaging.
My new tubes of toothpaste are 90% messages to recycle the tubes. Fully a third of the tubes are empty. Less product in the same amount of packaging, for more money.
'Nitro' brew cans of Starbucks coffee say they are recyclable. They are not recyclable without a bit of work. There is a piece of plastic about an inch in diameter and height stuck to the bottom of the can. The plastic has to be removed with two pairs of pliers and good effort. once you get past the sharp edges where you had to cut the can open.
Put two cans of the same of different brands of drink. Some hold less than others.
Plastic bottles of Coke say to put the cap back on the bottle before recycling. The cap is not recyclable. In the past, recycle centers have required caps to be removed.
I'm cool with 'sold by weight, not by volume' because it tells you up front. But, again, quantities have gone down, packaging has not.
'You could be eligible to spend as little as...'
'Free with your order'
'Free, just pay a separate fee'
'Free returns. Minus shipping and handling'
'4 easy payments of...'
'May be discontinued because of high demand and supply chain interruptions'
Any reference to having billions of five star reviews. I will never buy something from a company that advertises their reviews.
Product reviews.

Yea, commercial gold digging. Like making something that is a solution in search of a problem and is way over priced. Some people must have way too much money, or they are way too stoned to realize what they are spending. Take a look at this-
They are reusable glass "filters" for rolling in joints. The price is for ONE glass filter. Would anyone pay this price for this?

I was on the sofa last night with a pug and the cat sleeping. One started snowing loudly, my sleep-deprived brain wondered if it was the cat.

I had an apt across the street from a bar for 5 years, and moonlight bartended there. Guys often used to ask to use my apt bathroom. I finally asked why.

That sounds like some bs. The installer/equipment doesn't stand behind the work/product at all?

I hate being judged by the cats. But they are usually right....

During the hoarding days of early Covid liquor stores always had stock.
Ours has a selection of out-of-date and soon-to-be out-of-date food selections. You have to watch out for the moldy burritos.
CA LS's sell all your legal addictions: alcohol, tobacco, salt, sugar, gambling, caffeine, toys for kids of parents who know their parents are about to get liquored up and want a little something-something for not calling CPS, and vape products.
I like the toys that are poops and guns that are not to be aimed at your face when dispensing. Those are classy.
