The best thing you can buy on Amazon?

A laser thermometer gun for less than $30. Best time waster and actually useful.

You will end up checking the temperature of everything in your house. Walls, computers, Xbox, you name it. There are a bunch on Amazon, but I think this is the best-reviewed cheap one and I happen to own it too. Link: https://amzn.to/3QAVu8I

 

I use it for my smoker

 

Use one for my pool

 

used often!?

 

Less now, only two of us in the house. But when the kids come home, yup!

 

I’m getting older and am easily distractible. Going on Amazon to shop is pure hell for me lol. It’s not even that my distractibily causes me to overspend, it’s that all the options they throw in your face leave me in analysis paralysis, and I often spend hours looking at all sorts of things and end up buying nothing. Not to mention, the chinese-to-english translations require a lot of mental processing, even just for the titles of things.

Amazon makes me appreciate what importers do, and makes me appreciate hardware stores. Not that I spend less time in hardware stores, but at least there’s the old man in the back that set me up quick. I dont even care if I get a grumpy bastard anymore, still better than amazon lol

 

I will also say there are times I get Amazon gift cards and I check to see if there is a storefront for what I want to buy. Arb, Diode Dynamics, front runner, and others have shop fronts. So that way I still support who I want to but I get $25-100 to use in funny money.
