"Organizational eye candy"

We all do it. We get the bed bath and beyond circular in the mail. We scan for interesting new products. We see plastic organizational "eye-candy" that we "must" have because it will "change" my life forever.

Chances are, it will not change your life forever. Chances are it will add more clutter to your life. Chances are it will crack, break or become totally useless.

The way to avoid these traps is by asking the heirloom question. Am i going to have this for the next 20 years? if no its prob not worth buying.
