I’ve always hated shopping and consumerism. Problem is, I can’t avoid them entirely. My solution is simple. I try to buy high-quality stuff and when I find things I like, I stick with them. It doesn’t feel bad to buy something when I know I’ll have it forever and get a ton of use out of it. Plus, if I can support a company that’s creating genuinely useful & reliable products, then that feels pretty good too. My friends know how much I enjoy giving things away & recommending stuff that has served me well over the years. What Makes This Thing Great is an evolution of that impulse to share good stuff with people I love.
If you use any of the links on this site, a small percentage of the purchase price gets kicked back to support Tangentially Speaking, Vanthropology, etc., at no extra cost to you. Thanks in advance for your support.
