The abundance of advertising on the radio, television, the Internet, on billboards can make even the most unnecessary and useless thing desired vital. Naturally, most of us, without hesitation, go to the nearest store and acquire a little thing that can make us more confident, attractive, self-sufficient and successful. In fact, a good half of these purchases are just a waste of money.
What purchases should be abandoned without harm to home and health?
After shave creams and lotions
It is believed that these funds soothe the skin, relieve irritation, as well as narrow the pores, plus the dizzying aroma of perfume. The only thing you can’t argue with is the aroma; cool water will do just fine with everything else.
Body scrubs
The composition of each of them, from the cheapest to the branded one for fabulous money, includes the same substances: ground coffee, apricot kernels or exfoliating granules. Firstly, it is easy to make a scrub at home, taking the grounds from brewed ground coffee and mixing it with the cheapest liquid soap. But in general, a hard washcloth and ordinary toilet soap do an excellent job of exfoliating the skin.
Leave-In Hair Spray
Another innovation, when using which the hair should become strong, thick, silky and so on. In fact, the components of these sprays accumulate over time in the hair, making them brittle, dull and quickly getting dirty.
Creams and gels for cellulite
This product is intended for use during massage. Just the same intensified kneading and rubbing of the skin eliminates the signs of an orange peel, but not a remedy from a tube or bottle.
Gym membership
In fact, it is simply fashionable to have a subscription to the popular expensive gym. In order to acquire a dream figure, it is not at all necessary to spend huge sums, you can do warm-ups or gymnastics at home, walk, run in the mornings, climb stairs, in general, there are not so many alternatives.
Home fitness equipment
Refusing to go to the gym, many begin to buy devices for fitness at home. Naturally, in a couple - three weeks, all these bulky units will simply interfere underfoot. Of course, if you are the owner of a two-story mansion, you can equip a special room in the gym, in a regular apartment you can do a couple of dumbbells and a hoop.
Things for sports
Also replenish the list of useless, but very expensive purchases. Water-repellent clothing, shock-absorbing sneakers, microfiber socks, T-shirts with the logo of a famous sports company, that is, all that you can safely do without.
Slimming products
This includes diet food, which offers to lose as much as 10 kg per week, and miracle pills to help you lose weight without diets and dietary restrictions, and plasters that need to be sculpted on problem areas and so on. The most effective means is, of course, a patch, but glued to the mouth.
Baby monitor
It saves everything perfectly in the same in a two-story mansion, and in a standard kindergarten you can easily hear the cry of a child in any of the rooms.
Swaddling Accessories
There are swaddling pads, special changing tables, and much more. It’s easier to swaddle a baby or change his diaper on a regular bed, the main thing is not to forget to lay a clean diaper.
Wet towel warmer
Strange, of course, but there is one. A logical question arises: where do you need to store napkins so that they cool to an ice state? And why not warm them just by holding them for half a minute in their hands?
Special solutions for cleaning silver jewelry
These funds are often sold in jewelry stores. In practice, ammonia and toothpowder do a great job of cleaning silver, and these funds are mere pennies.
Machine Cleaner - Automatic
This product is a powder with which you need to drive the washing machine from time to time. To remove the scum, it’s enough to drive a machine with citric acid at a rate of 20 grams per kilogram of machine load a couple - three times a year, that is, a pack of citric acid weighing 100 g will be required for a standard 5-kilogram load. Lemon should be poured into the powder compartment, set the maximum temperature and start an empty machine.
Of course, I want to pamper myself from time to time with something unnecessary and useless, just for the mood, but let it be one - the only purchase, and not a bunch of things that will have to be shifted or rearranged.
