Go to Market Monday

This is my new series on internet shopping.

I think I've mentioned that I hate shopping.  So, this is my attempt

at finding cool places on the web that allow me to shop without my family.  I am

looking for things that I would love but that I would never buy for myself (this is where I say:  hint, hint). Enjoy.

Ready for a new fridge? Check out the fresh retro products at Big Chill ... it makes me want to chuck my stainless steel fridge and put in something a little cooler (see what I did there? talking about a fridge I used the word cooooooler? ha! maybe all that Boggle is paying off)  They also have stoves and are about to get dishwashers (does that count as retro?  isn't that kind of like have a retro cell phone?)  This is not a cheap item ($2700) but as long as we are putting up luxury items this one definitely counts.  There are other retro fridges out there.  Some are recycled like these.  And some are so cool that it's hard to tell if they are even retro...like the ones from Smeg.  I think I need a new kitchen to decorate, what?  I don't have any money?  Rats.

You have no idea what this is?  It's for those people in the work force who still need that nap you are so desperately trying to get your 3-year-old to take (not me, but some people).  It's for the work-place and it does two things:  1) confirms that George Castanza on Seinfield was on to something when he was outfitted his desk for a mid-day nap and 2) corporate America is starting more and more to resembe Day-Care.  There is nothing wrong with a mid-day nap, right?  But I draw the line when you are getting paid to take it.  Check out the web site here. 

This contraption is just perfect for all those padded expensive bras that I own.  This an invention that actually serves a practical purpose in my life....what's it doing on this page?  Hmmm....maybe it's really expensive...nope only $20. Get it here.

All I want to know is A: Will the Metronap work with drowning out the screams of children? and B: Will Metronap look good in my family room? Great items this week. Thanks.

I hate shopping too, but living in Canada makes online shopping pretty tricky.
I want that fridge. Whooo.

I love that fridge.
It looks like the hand-me-down fridge (c. 1950) that my in-laws gave us when we were first married. Now I wish I had kept it and bought some high quality enamel paint. (They don't make 'em like that anymore. It was built like a tank and weighed about as much. I just couldn't get into that 'defrosting' regimen...which is unfortunate since it really cut down on all that mystery food that lurks in the back of the fridge forever.)

Yes, I did read your "justification" for drinking at all. Hey, I'm ALL FOR drinking---trust me! but that martini night, not fun!
Love the shopping links!
