Vivo dual swing arm laptop and monitor mount. Repurposing an old laptop and monitor for use on my workbench in the garage. I got sick of trying to look up stuff on my phone when I work out there.

I admit that I'd googled those models and found out, that this is only the tip of the series iceberg. Man, those are cool and not the cheapest invest. Are you got plans to get them all?

For everyone else’s reference, OmegaXSwatch collaboration - Moonswatch series.

They are really fun to wear and feel really good on the wrist w/ NATO straps. Originally wanted to get all 11 but after having 3 in rotation (Uranus is for the wife), I’m not sure anymore are needed, now my Rolexes rarely get wrist time….I’d probably trade the ‘mission to moon’ for ‘mission to mercury’, maybe get a Neptune.

DeWalt shop stool. Seriously beefy, but uncomfortable AF to sit on for more than 20-30 minutes. Looks like it has a nice cushion, but that's 99% solid and only 3/4" padding at most. I bought a 14" diameter bar stool pad to go over it. I hope it helps. Right now the ~$35 bar stool I bought at Walmart is more comfy to sit on than this $160 beast.

Ok so I didn't technically buy it as I did not pay for it, but I did get it recently. If you don't know what it is it's some fancy schmancy bluetooth mug that is suppose to keep your beverage warmed up to the temp you set.

It's honestly one of the most ridiculous and useless things I own and I own a lot of stupid shit. While it technically does keep my coffee warm, it hold such little coffee that there's no point in trying to keep it warm because it goes down in a couple sips. I believe they make bigger ones, but I ain't spending any $$ on that.

6 tickets to an event supporting local police explorers. Seems I'll be traveling in time and space to Havana Friday night! Open bar, local distributors with their wares, finger food, and cigars. All covered with the price of admission.

I don't believe so although we rarely use the dishwasher. It has a power button and metal charging stuff on the bottom.

Gorilla Ladders 5.5' step ladder. I have a smaller version that's mostly for indoor use, so when I saw this one at Home Depot, I grabbed it. The strange thing was it was shrink wrapped and in a bay behind a cable. I ask one of the store guys if I needed someone to get this for me or if I could just grab one and he said the cable was there to keep them from tipping over into the aisle. He said to just go ahead and grab one myself. So I did. Brought it up and had one of the checkout folks scan it and off I went. I got home and cut off the shrink wrap and bigger than shit there were two ladders inside. I knew that had to be a mistake. Then I saw a small sticker on the shrink wrap that said "Ladders Sold Separately." So the store folks apparently didn't realize this 2-pack was meant to be split up before selling them. Being the honest person I am (another thing learned from my parents), I went back to the store and paid for the second ladder. I'm keeping it for my brother who got me hooked on Gorilla Ladders in the first place.

Funny Father story - when mine was still alive - be bought a blu-ray player. The reason? Because he kept accidently buying the blu-ray version western DVD's from the bins at Wal-Mart, so he just gave up and bought a cheap Blu-Ray player. Of course the non-high tech redneck that he was - he could not get it to work. So I went to set it up for him and it had some weird wiring deal (I can't recall) because he of course bought the $17.59 blu-ray player being the tight old man he was.

So I say - Dad, give me the receipt - I'll take it back and get you a decent one and pay the difference for your tight ass. He gives me the receipt - it's not on there. He'd only been to Wal-Mart once in the last month, so this was the right one. As I got questioning him - he used the self check out. LMAO - he didn't scan it and walked right out with it.

I had a good story for the returns lady...........

unluky, let's hope your username doesn't come back to bite you...those employees at Walmart are on top of their game, right? Perhaps sell it on Facebook, Craigslist or eBay and then go back and upgrade!
