Things I Bought And Returned (TIBAR) | September

Not sure anyone noticed, but there was no TIBAR for August. This is because I kept everything I bought since it was all home stuff for the most part. I didn’t have anything to report. September, on the other hand, was a different story.

If you’re new to the paid side of things, allow me to introduce you to Things I Bought And Returned. I love shopping, but I love returning even more. Submitting a request for return, printing out the label, attaching it to the box, taping the box up, and ultimately dropping that box off at UPS/USPS, Whole Foods, or FedEx gives me a rush I can’t get anywhere else. It’s free money, after all.

Each month, I keep track of everything I bought and returned so I can share my fails with paying subscribers because it’s great when things work out, but it’s more interesting to talk about what didn’t work and why.

Welcome.
