Sun 9/14/2008 8:37p | Andy Rooney did a bit tonight on all the things he has but never uses. So it got me thinking about things I've purchased over the years and never, evvver use.
You know you have some too - don't try to deny it! You know you do! LOL.
So spill. ;)
I'll start.
Behold the Handy Stitch!

Yeah, that's right! One and a half stars! LOL. I've had it for at least 4 years and I've never even taken it out of the box.
I try to be clutter free but I just can't get rid of this thing. I know I'll use it SOMEday.... :D
So what do you have? |

Sun 9/14/2008 8:46p | I am guilty of having many items I've never opened.
One is that fried onion flower maker thing that let's you make a bloomin' onion at home. I never throw it out, b/c I think SOMEDAY I'll make a bloomin' onion.
I have a Mickey popcorn popper that I never opened b/c it's easier to make the microwave stuff.
And one of those hot cocoa machines. |

On second thought.... naaah. I could never get rid of my Handy Stitch! LOL.
Maybe this thread will motivate us to either use or get rid of these things.
On second thought.....naaah. I could never get rid of my Handy Stitch! :D |

Sun 9/14/2008 10:37p | I know! Isn't that how it always is?! LOL.
Another thing we have and never use is a telescope. It's a really great one. Has a GPS thingy and everything. I have *got* to get that thing set up. ... This thread may inspire me yet! lol. |

Sun 9/14/2008 11:24p | Ugh, I'm going to get killed here. I sold some closet-fillers on ebay recently and went looking for an appropriate sized box, and I found a WHOLE lot of Disney LE and special items I've never worn, used, or looked at since the day I bought them.
And yes, these are going on eBay soon! |

Mon 9/15/2008 11:51a | I have tons of kitchen things. I have a food processor still in the box from a year ago, because I simply have no room to set it up and am too lazy to go get it out of the basement. I have the grilled cheese sandwich press thingy. I have a stick blender that I've used once. A Hersheys fondue set (technically someone gave that to DS). A cannister set that is still in the boxes (hmmmm maybe someone will get this for Christmas). I have a big box of table cloths that have never been used. A dremmel pumpkin carving kit.
I have a lot of DVD's that are still in their wrappers. I guess I'll watch them someday. |

Mon 9/15/2008 11:52a | Ok, here goes....
A HUGE wok that heats with those cans of Sterno...I even have the Sterno.
A campfire espresso maker.
A "DELUXE" fly tying kit.
A knitting machine.
I know there's more "treasures" hidden under my bed, in my closet, or in my room in the shop...I'll get back to ya. |
