Moszkito Diamond Flip Flops {Luxist}
May 19th 2007 11:00AM Has anyone taken a look at the site that sells these controversial flip flops? Not only is their logo the annoying mosquito (moszkito), but they are truly orthopedic flip flops. You can even find a link to the American Podiatric Medical Association. Yes, the colors and price ranges do vary, but they're all affordable, except this marketing ploy (which are only sold in black). I'd bet you $20,000 they haven't sold a pair, but they sure have generated website traffic! I, personally, wouldn't spend 20 cents on a flip flop that's logo is a mosquito...there are enough of them in my back yard!
KitchenAid Pro Line Toasters {Luxist}
Feb 1st 2007 8:43AM I'm confused...is this site called practicalpurchases.com? No, it's called luxist.com -- quit griping about the high price of a toaster -- I can only think of two reasons as to why we're all here: because we can either afford the goods or like to live vicariously. Luxist definitely satisfies both of these groups. Thanks, luxist.
Sony's 70" Bravia {Luxist}
Jan 9th 2007 7:45AM We were recently in Tokyo and went to the Sony store. We were truly impressed with the picture on the Sony Bravia line. It's truly amazing...crisp...clean. Perfect. Almost scary. When we returned home we were set on buying a Bravia for the bedroom. We ended up with a Phillips 50"...lol. There was a substantial difference in price and the image on the Phillips was quite nice as well. It's not a Bravia though. The other nice thing about the Bravias is that you can order the casing in different colors to match your decor (at least in some of the smaller levels).
Breville Juice Extractor {Luxist}
Dec 1st 2006 10:24AM I also own the Breville juicer and use it daily. My only recommendation to buyers is to hand wash. The container that holds the pulp has lost it's "seal." Now when I use it I am spritzed with juice. Carrot juice or beet juice on a nice white shirt...not so nice. Anyway, I can only assume that the couple of times I put it in the dishwasher for a thorough cleaning that it lost it's shape. Otherwise we love it.
