Thursday Thirteen #317

Thirteen Amazon top sellers. I feel I'm always waiting for a package from AmazonSo are millions of other Americans. Here's what we're buying, as indicated by the best-seller* in major categories.

I did this last year, if you're interested in comparing/contrasting.

1.  Beauty and Personal Care: Schick Hydro Silk Touch-Up Dermaplaning Tool. This is a skinny little razor for shaping eyebrows and removing peachfuzz. 3 for $5.94, which seems like a very good price.

2. Shoes. "Wendy" lace-up loafers by Hey Dude. These would be cute with jeans and a black or gray top. If I was still working, I might buy them and leave them under my desk. But I'm not still working, so I'm moving right along.

3. Women's Clothing. Werena shaping boyshorts with tummy control. These are highly-rated and very popular, but I've worn similar and frankly, they make going to the bathroom a little harder.

4. Men's Clothing. Under Armour Tech 2.0 white t-shirt. All I know about Under Armour is that my favorite-most ball player, Anthony Rizzo, endorses them. Therefore they must be good.

5. Household Cleaning. Clorox Disinfecting Wipes. I like a good wipe. I have these in my kitchen and near the cats' litter boxes (but I didn't order through Amazon). PS These were #1 last time, too!

6. Home and Kitchen. HiWare 48-piece Silverware Set. This is service for eight and, as of this writing, 21% off. It looks like a great deal if I needed new everyday flatware, but I don't, so I'm moving right along.

7. Appliances. Magic Bullet Blender. Now why is this in "appliances" and not "home and kitchen?" Amazon's classifications and algorithms are beyond me.

8. Laptops. Apple 2020 MacBook Air, 13" screen. Hey! This looks exactly like mine. And the price is very good. 

9. Office Supplies. BIC X-tra Smooth Mechanical Pencils. I prefer a freshly sharpened #2 myself, but for those who like mechanical pencils, Amazon sells them in packs of 40.

10. Cell Phones. Apple iPhone 11. This one is refurbished and sells for $304. I wonder how many they have in stock.

11. Television. Vizio 4o" Smart TV. 40" seems too big for my living room, and my current TV is fine, so I'm moving on.

12. Video Games. John Wick: Chapter 4. Is this a video game or the movie or both? If only I cared.

13. Pet Supplies. Earth Rated Dog Poop Bags. This was #1 last year, too. Dog owners are a loyal breed.
