The Oddest Things You Buy On Amazon

OMG, I was trawling Amazon today and hit the jackpot! A box of Ptasie mleczko Polish chocolate-covered marshmellow candies is on the way to my house. The Euro deli was out of them when I was there last week. Hope the candies do not melt in this heat!

We order lots of things from Amazon, but probably the oddest is trash bags. It’s really hard to find the ones we like.

Mini ice cube trays for the small college refrigerator. If I don’t find them pretty soon, I’ll have to order them again! (Sending fridge on round 3 soon.)

A PI shaped ice cube tray:

50 pounds of dog food every two months. Our mailman doesn’t like us when he has to wrestle the stuff off the truck, but at least we don’t have to load it into the car.

Pi shaped ice cube tray is out of stock. Rats.

I’ve never ordered these, but they do have sex toys available.

Shoelaces, earbud tips.

LOL!! I get 42 pound bags of cat litter delivered by Amazon. The ups guy knows better than getting mad at me for ordering that stuff because he knows - I will order 5 bags of cat litter if I ever get a wiff of a complaint. :wink:

Hotwire cutter, anyone?

I was thinking about buying Uranium Ore:

But a comment indicates it is poorly packaged:

Dog poop bags.

@hebegebe, consider a Banana Saver instead: https://www.amazon.com/Peregrine-609230-Banana-Saver-Yellow/dp/B002A8HSXW/ref=lp_2598361011_1_2?srs=2598361011&ie=UTF8&qid=1470080393&sr=8-2

Does it come with a banana slicer?

It’s usually hard for me to find a favorite childhood treat, pastina, or tiny pasta starts. Found some on Amazon but I had to buy 6 boxes. So many teeny, tiny stars had oozed through the seams of the box that they left a starry trail on the floor.

Since you asked:

Best thing on Amazon… not the slicer, those random items with hilarious reviews!

@twicer,

Do you think the banana slicer will work on unicorn meat?

This reminds me of the canned armadillo I brought my kids from Texas :slight_smile:

@sseamom , we’re going on vacation and I need some snore stop (H could wake the dead). I just searched but i find two kinds of spray and one pill. Which kind worked for y’all?

Beard cream and a tiny little comb for my son’s goatee mustache which my youngest son bought for one of his older brothers. In turn, said older brother brought youngest boy a metal comb that twirls and makes a shape like a star. They each loved those presents.

The opposite situation. I saw the Amazon Echo being displayed at the local Lowes when I went to buy bird seed last month. I guess the rationale is to market the product for its use with all of the home electronics you can remotely control.
