It is full of hilarious things you don't need -it absolutely kills us. The way they describe the items is too funny. We have a deal that you aren't allowed to look at it until the other person can look too, so you can explore the delights together. We have been known to read it in bed together pissing ourselves laughing. Here are some highlights!
There are containers for every conceivable fruit and vegetable:
I actually thought the banana one would be quite handy...
And then the ridiculous, if this isn't a sure fire way to spill a glass of vino I don't know what is:
And this clever way to hide your valuable jewels:
But this one, well, we laughed so hard, imagine if you saw some bloke at the beach wearing one of these:
But, alas, then I saw this:
... I have always wanted one of these.... ever since as a child I saw Lucille Ball laying on the lounge after a night out with Dezzy. It arrives this afternoon.
Oh crikey - they just get better and better and even more bizarre and ridiculous!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE these books but I have to be careful not to 'bag' them 'cos I see their products all the time in peoples homes! lol! My 'not so favourites' that I see everywhere? *The little shower squeegy (that's never used), the metalframe around the toilet with the above shelf, the 'rock' for the spare outside key...... ummm... you get my drift. lol. I shamefully admit that I've been sucked into buying stuff too though. Hmmm... and I think like that tomato holder....? I hope you enjoy the ice pack. 2 cute.. Ha, ha...
ReplyDeletecant speak pissing myself laughing xx
ReplyDeleteI can't tell you how much I LOVE these catalogues. Absolutely hilarious.
ReplyDeleteI would have bought the ice-pack too. I'm dubious about the banana holder though. What if your banana was too straight or curvier? I think you'd need a set of them ... all with different grades of curve ( ... see, I could be a designer for HomeCare).
I haven’t looked in one of those catalogues for years (perhaps I am a bit scared I will find something I “need”!!!!). You are on there list now – watch out……..
ReplyDeleteps enjoy your Lucile Ball moment when you next have a sore head!
ohhh my, the kids must think I am nutty, sitting here laughing in tears.
ReplyDeletethat man..hilarious, it's like one of those snuggy blanket things..and the bib, hilarious!!!
I would be tempted by the ice bag too.
thanks for the Monday laugh :)
that is hilarious!
ReplyDeletei love the wraparound towel, its coming up to julians birthday, i would love to get him one!!
and that roll cushion thing is truly ugly.
thanks for the laugh!
Hahaha I love these catalogs too! I think the banana holder would be quite useful though...lol
ReplyDeletelol lol lol lol....that is hilarious!! The fruit and veg containers...hahahaha!!! Can't believe people actually buy the stuff.
ReplyDeleteHa ha ha ha.......OMG!
ReplyDeleteI actually own the lemon, the tomato & the onion containers!
To justify my insanity - they actually do keep them longer in your fridge!
Hope you love your ice-pack.
I do love flicking through these, they really are hilarious! Love that banana cover, & the hair catcher...too funny!
ReplyDeleteThe safe cushion is genius, and so modern pfffft. Thanks for the monday chuckles. I love that you have to read it together.
ReplyDeleteLOL we love these too! My mum collects hers for us, as its a different company to our with a new minefield of goodness. hehe
ReplyDeleteYou just made me realise that we don't get them any more! Must quiz the Mr - would hate to think he put a stop to all that bedtime hilarity!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the laugh Cath.
ReplyDeleteI love that reading this treasure in bed has become a highlight for you - doesn't it make you ask what has my life become? Am I the person who needs special holders for my fruits and vegies, or a place to hide my precious trinkets. Do I need special phone holders and fold up racks and heaven forbid a cape to conduct my own home bowl cuts (I'm sure they even sell bowls on page 33). Would I find my partner sexy in a wraparound towel, or even a blanket sack. Oh my where is my catalogue....I am seriously missing out!
ReplyDeleteSo Funny seeing these stupid products...do not want to believe that people buy these! I do like the ice bag though!
ReplyDeleteHaha...it's ridiculous the things out there that people buy! The no-bruising banana holder got me.
ReplyDeleteHilarious! I always wanted one of those ice packs too! Though I have no idea what I would do with it.
ReplyDeleteI have the lemon keeper. It is a great way to hold your half-lemons while they get mouldy in the back of the fridge. Before I bought it at the dollar store, my lemons had to go mouldy in ordinary plastic containers. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI love these books too, I actually have the tomato thingy its empty in the back of the fridge while the half of tomato rots away in the door. Love the ice pack, I so want one!
ReplyDeleteOK you've made me sorry I have refused to have these books come to my house. My fav is the hair cutting cape. Now, I wonder who will let me cut their hair? Must find a victim!
ReplyDeleteA friend of mine gave me one of those banana protectors a while back. I've barely used it. Do you want it?
ReplyDeleteI think I will have to order one of each! I think things like this are better to read with someone ... thanks for sharing, you made me laugh
ReplyDeleteOh boy. That tapestry armchair 'safe' is a real must-have... and so very comfortable, I'm sure.
ReplyDeleteI confess we have one of those ice thingies. The inlaws gave it to us... and now I know where they shop. Oh dear.
I never get those magazines anymore. Ms L and I love seeing all the crazy stuff in them.
ReplyDeleteOh hilarious! I have to admit though I never understood the ice bag thing, sounds like a recipe for a headache. Tell us how it goes - quality test please! You also may smirk at those banana holders, but I saw them for sale all over New Zealand...they really do raise more questions than provide answers though, don't they.
ReplyDeletesomething that is soooo hilarious in these catalogues is they have a vibrator masquarading as a personal massager for your your shoulders!!!!
