With some of the products on the market, even in the outdoor recreation segment, you do have to wonder "WHAT were they thinking?!" Sadly, the moments I find myself doing just that, I have to scoot to the side to allow another consumer to reach for said merchandise, which they drop into their shopping cart and proceed to buy. "Clearly not marketed to people like me, I guess..."

Pet stores are the same way... I learned a long time ago not to let loose with my, "Who in the their right mind would buy ______ for a pet?!" because invariably my answer was usually a few steps away, making a beeline for said item. "Oops."
