Honestly, the amount of money I’ve blown on accessories that promised the moon and delivered a damp squib is frankly embarrassing. I once spent nearly $300 on a fancy VR treadmill that, in reality, just made me dizzy and feel like a hamster on a wheel. It gathered dust for months before I finally sold … Read more

Sticker sheets and fancy apps that promise to transform your life. I’ve bought into the hype more times than I care to admit.
