WAPW: Chewbacca Talking Dashboard Driver

The Weird Amazon Purchase of the Week this week is definitely the Chewbacca Talking Dashboard Driver. Having some sort of Dashboard Driver is weird enough – but Chewbacca? Every time you turn or stop, he just says “Rooooowwwwrrrrrrrrrrr”, I guess. That would be a funny gag gift, I suppose. Especially for a Star Wars nut. Regardless, I made about $1 from it.

Weird Amazon Purchase of the Week

This was a tough week to decide on a Weird Amazon Purchase of the Week.

Let’s start with the 3rd place entry. Even though I love this Firefly t-shirt, it isn’t very odd. But it is awesome.

For second place, I’m going with the Tattoos for the Elderly. I’ve just got to believe that it’s a gag gift. I don’t understand why you’d get them, but… Maybe they’d be funny for the right person?

And the winner is Sex in the City Perfume! And by winner, I mean loser. Seriously, who would buy this?

Weird Amazon Purchase of the Week

Welcome to Week Two of Weird Amazon Purchase of the Week.   I know you’re all as excited as I am about this, so let’s get going.  The odd item from this week is:

Spam Musubi Rice Press

I had to do some research to figure out what the heck Spam Musabi Sushi is, and apparently it’s a fairly popular snack food in Hawaii and a few other places – it’s rice and fried spam tied together with seaweed. I’m not a huge fan of spam, but this looks pretty tasty. And I guess you need a sushi rice press if you want to make perfectly formed rice for your spam.

So, there you go! It makes perfect sense!

Weird Amazon Purchase of the Week

So one of my fun little hobbies is looking through all my Amazon affiliate accounts and finding the strangest thing that someone bought and I got affiliate credit for it.  The winner this month is…

A bucket of 72 ping pong balls!

I love playing ping pong, but 72?  What the hell are you going to do with 72 ping pong balls?  Or maybe I don’t want to know?

Anyway, thanks for buying them.  I made roughly $2.24 from your purchase.
