12 Kitchen Gadgets That Are a Complete Waste of Money

📕 The Home Savings Manual — 79 ways to stop overpaying for your own house: https://brendacarver.com/ Open the drawer next to your stove, the one you have to jiggle to get shut. There's a thing for slicing a banana, a plastic thing for eggs, a gadget still wearing its twist tie from Christmas three years ago. Add up what they all cost new and I'd bet there's a couple hundred dollars in that drawer. Nobody spent it in one trip. They spent five, fifteen, twenty at a time, and the drawer did the adding. Our grandmothers ran a whole kitchen on a knife, a spoon and a good pot. In this one I'll walk you through 12 kitchen gadgets that are a complete waste of money, and what you already own that does the job: 🍌 The banana slicer, egg slicer and avocado tool, herb scissors, and the garlic press (and the knife-and-salt trick that beats it) 🥫 The electric can opener, the egg cooker, and the microwave popcorn maker and bags 🥪 Sandwich and panini presses, and specialty bakeware that makes exactly one food ☕ The juicer, the pod coffee maker, and what those pods really cost you in a year …and number one, the one almost every house in America has fallen for. A thing you buy once and keep is a bad business, and a thing you buy over and over is a good one. Clear out the drawer, and keep your money right where it belongs.
