Stupid Product Alert!

I never knew that.

You know now.

Leather gift bags lined with faux fur (in the shape of a wine bottle so you can't ever use it for anything else) - $20!!!

Eeeew, that sounds hideous. A leather gift bag is weird enough - but to stick fur on it? Tacky.

I have learned recently that you can get binoculars from Barnes & Noble...for when the reading glasses just aren't strong enough?

Or maybe if you want to read your neighbor's book from inside your own house?

Well, the futons and arms started coming in. And I was wrong--there's going to be more like 6 or 7 different styles of arms. The arms come in big boxes so it will be a challenge to fit them in backstock.

And the suits wonder why our furniture backstock always look like a tornado went through it. Since I've been there, they've at least doubled the assortment of furniture and reduced the amount of space for us to put it in.

Why on earth would anyone want to cover their skin in snail slime?!

Because it's a great, all-natural moisturizer? Ever seen a snail with dry, flaking skin?

[Broomjockey]

Yeah, but he told me he needed to lay off the salty pretezels.

I just noticed a new Pillsbury product last time I was stocking in Dairy. Can someone explain the concept of "Crescent Rounds"? I thought the two were totally different shapes and mutually exclusive.

Wait, what? "Crescent" rounds? Are crescents anything like croissants? They must be hillbilly croissants, or something.

"Crescent Rolls" is a name that people in the US without cultural awareness (or maybe just people who hate the French) give to croissants. I'm not bothered too much by that, as a croissant is a roll in the shape of a crescent.

Crescent Rounds are aparently the same dough used to make croissants, but rather than rolled over itsself to make the spiralish crescent shape, the dough is formed into your everyday round biscuit.

Croissants and crescent rolls are two totally different things Croissants are layered flaky pastry made with ridiculous amounts of butter and multiple very thin layers of pastry (akin to phyllo) with a lot less flour. Crescent rolls are a roll-type dough that's rolled out and has more flour and baking powder

<--baking nut.
