A marketing tip to help you from wasting your money this holiday season:
Almost without fail, if a product’s packaging touts the number of pieces you’re getting (“24 piece set!” “72 pieces!” “101 pieces!”), at least a quarter of those pieces are complete garbage or things that you will never, ever, ever use.
Even the world’s greatest mechanic or craftsman is probably not going to use all of the sockets and screwdrivers and whatnot in that big tool set.
Do you even know what all of those tiny spoons and forks are for in your set of formal tableware?
Unless you want your preteen niece to look like a rodeo clown, do not get her a big kit with 83 different colors of eye shadow.
Seriously, go for quality over quantity.
