Just about the only thing carried by these stores that ISN'T junk is the Tempur-Pedic line.
Someone bought my wife, who's always misplacing her keys, one of those "Clapper Alarms" that goes on a keychain. You could clap all day and unless you were 2 feet from it, nothing happened. However, if our small dog barked within 50 ft.... beep! beep! beep! beep!! It was hilarious, we had to get the dog to "speak" to make it actually work, nothing else was affective. It had Brookstone written on the front. It's no longer on her keychain.
