Necessities?

Over the weekend, we went to a mall that sells specialty items.  One of the stores there is Brookstone.  I like walking through because of the ingenius gadgets they sell.  They displayed a wrap around back massager for "hard to reach places."  A free standing cylinder was a towel warmer.  A foot spa was another luxurious option for purchase.  All of these sound amazing, but, in my simplify-geared mind I thought, "Where would you keep these big items when not using them?"  If you truly like use-once-in-awhile gadgets, by all means, get them.  If they will sit around and take up space, making you feel claustrophobic, it might be best to leave them at the store.  If you have received something like this as a gift, don't feel guilty passing it on.  There's some tense construction worker out there who could use the massager daily!
