What did I buy and regret? Three travel trailers and two motor homes.

A set of plastic Tupperware microwave cooking bowls. We just don't use the microwave much and I finally put the bowls into a cupboard in the basement of our house. Never used them.
2 sets of sheets and comforters that I sewed up to fit our twin beds. Too hard to make the beds - got Travasaks. And the first bedding won't fit any other bed - it's in the attic...
The biggest waste of money was a bunch of Coroplast and Eternabond that I used to cover the bottom of the trailer and then had to rip it all off because it was holding water in instead of keeping water out. Money and work down the drain.

A 12 volt coffee maker, If you started it before breakfast it would be done by lunch.

Turbo-Maxx fan.
I installed the Turbo-Maxx on my TH and liked it until I got the Aliner with a Fantastic fan. The fantastic fan wins hands down, there is no comparing the amount of air they move. I should have spent the extra money for the TH.

For sure the whole satellite dish program. Well, I do still want it. Just can't seem to get it right. First I bought Dish network and a dish. Then this new Eastern Ark setting requires this huge dish. Nowhere to store it. OK, I did get it to work a little.
Great, no problem, lets spend $700.00 on this little automatic unit. Now can't get it to work. Have exhausted all help. Now we just search for any over the air channels. We were excited last week as they offered free cable tv. Cool. Only, they had 12 channels at this park and all the networks were from LA. Nothing local. Oh well. Maybe we will listen to the radio from now on. That's still free. For awhile yet anyway.

Self seeking satellite dish installed on the roof. Thought that this would save me time when setting up not having to dig out the dish find a spot for it etc. Works fine if you are in an open field or a site without trees...how often does that happen?
All I ask is a chance to prove that money can't make me happy.

Wives.....can't seem to find one that keeps working and they wear out quickly. So, I gave up a few years ago after a few tries.

Hmmmmm.... DW is an impulse buyer. Here's the short list:
2 crappy BBQ Grills - Finally I bought a Camp Chef 3 burner on Ebay!
Inflatable Matress - Never been out of the box.
More tables than we'll ever use! I'm losing them a little at a time.
Numerous small appliances that are permenant fixtures in the under-bed storage area.
10+ pair of sandals - I find them everywhere and in every vehicle.
4 Griddles (one electric) and I still can't get her to just buy ONE nice cast-iron one.
Half the world supply of Blue Storage bins.
I could go on and on........ Need a bigger RV!
