Expensive but worthless? I recently bought this magazine which was a lot more expensive compared to the others with the same theme. I saw this headline in the cover about my favorite actress. I bought it thinking there are more pictures and good reads in the magazine. It turned out that she only had one picture and only a one paragraph feature! The rest of the articles inside are not really worth reading. I learned my lesson and will never buy that magazine again

i guess, in this case, the saying "don't judge a book by its cover" applies.
that also happened to me a few times.
:P

that happened to me so many times but i learned my lesson at last. what i start doing is having a quick look through the magazine or check the context page to know if there is much interesting titles and according to that i make the purchase.

For me, I think it would be a face cream I bought. It was like US$100 (expensive to me) but it didn't suit my skin type nor have effects on my face at all. Therefore it has to be the most worthless purchase for me. It was just so expensive and useless when I come to think of it. I do buy other expensive things but most of them are quite useful to me!

i hate it when that happens. i've also bought some stuff/cosmetic items that turn out to be ineffective. and yes, they are expensive. that's really frustrating at times.
thanks for sharing!

I have bought more expensive things but i bought an exercise machine which I never used at all. So it was worthless to me and the most expensive coz i didnt utilize it at all.
