Our TOP 10 *they sell this stuff online* List
With myfoodcount.com being a longtime Amazon.com affiliate, we come across some weird and sometimes rather expensive stuff in the world of health. So without further ado, here is a rundown of the top 10 products that make us go “Huh? They sell this stuff online?”
10: Stage IV 3000 Bariatric Pressure Relief System
| Gone are the days when simply air mattresses where available online, now you can not only buy a bed but a BIG ELECTRONIC bed that puts Ultramatic to shame! With three different, fully adjustable pressure zones, heating and cooling capabilities along with bed sore prevention systems you simply can’t go wrong! Warning: If you plan on putting this in your RV, be sure to bring a few extra tires with you as well. |
9: The Happy Company Head Trip Therapeutic Massager
| First time I saw this product I thought it was a baking implement, my second guess was something to stick at the end of a pole for spear fishing but head? I would prefer a nice HOT shower with the water pouring all over my head but I guess if you don’t have the time, this may help stave off those shower cravings for a little bit. I can also see this doing wonders for those suffering from conditions causing a dry, itchy scalp. |
8: The Relaxman Relaxation Capsule
| This product fits in my “if I had a million dollars” category, the idea is “sound” and I bet it would sure be relaxing but do I really want to be THAT isolated from the environment I am trying to relax from? I am all for isolation, but the Relaxman Relaxation Capsule seems to take you COMPLETELY away. I would fear waking, opening the hatch and finding out that I was the last person to survive a nuclear war, thus rendering this product obsolete! |
7: Anti-Monkey Butt Powder
| The name is a stroke of marketing genius and the price is pretty cheap to boot, that being said, you better hope that family and friends who visit you don’t find this in the medicine cabinet… otherwise you will end up the “butt” of many jokes to follow. Haven driven a motorbike, snowmobile etc… I can see this product being very important to comfort during extended driving. |
6: Genie II Major Surgery Light Double Ceiling Mount
| This product makes you realize that Amazon.coms customer base is far more then just your Average Joe. Amazon.com sells not only high grade medical gear for hospitals but also Butt Powder (above)… now that is diversification! Can’t find those pennies under the couch or your toothbrush in the morning, it isn’t your eye sight… you just need a Major Surgery Light Double Ceiling Mount installed. |
5: Potato Gun
| Although a great way to drive people around you nuts, the idea of bio-degradable bullets does intrigue me. Stick this gun into a potato, aim and shoot! All you need to do is get yourself a water gun to match and fill it with ketchup for a agonizingly slow meal next to the frying pan. It’s powered by a squeeze method, so no need to run to the local hobby shop for gun powder nor CO2 as is the case with paint guns. |
4: Whitehall Wirlpools Hubbard Tank Low-Boy Body Immersion
| That is a rather expensive bathtub but it’s like the army, you pay a premium for commercial medical quality items, this Low-Boy Body Immersion tank is no exception. I think if you had this and the Relaxman Relaxation Capsule you could be the most relaxed person on this planet! Put a titanium cover over it once your in and you can replay your favorite Dare Devil Movie scenes! Also great for vampires as long as your fellow ‘pires don’t play a joke on you and fill it with Holy Water. |
3: Marshmallow Blower
| Along the same stream as the Potato Gun above except it shoots marshmallows. Instead of using squeeze power though, you need a good set of lungs as this uses pure lung power (blowing). I could see some fun to be had shooting this across a camp fire but otherwise, a sticky mess awaits any house that experiences a marshmallow war. Remember to always pick a smoker for these type of items, their diminished lung capacity will make you a sure winner every time! |
2: iVent201 Intensive Care Face Mask Ventilation System
| If you don’t have one of these babies in your ICU, EMS or home care setting, then you need one ASAP! Just about everything is adjustable from a spontaneously determined air flow rate to full vitals with all visuals graphically shown to the medical examiner to save for further regime modifications. This is also great gift to give at weddings, parties or to tell that special someone that you really care on Valentines Day. |
1: Online Grocery Shopping
| For those who don’t know, Amazon.com actually sells groceries online, they have been doing this for some time now. I can see food staples that comes in bulk boxes as a good buy but so far, no one company has had much national success with online grocery shopping. Most grocery stores run less then 5% margins to begin with, perishable fruit and vegetables don’t have a very long shelf life and are easily bruised. That being said, if I had the option where I am living now to simply receive my groceries in the mailbox, I would probably give it a try. I wonder if they sell big mailboxes too? |
The Bottom Line
Amazon.com has grown nicely since its initial beginnings, diversification beyond simply “consumer grade” stuff is a fantastic thing as the more competition in the medical field, the better it is for everybody. Of course, there are also some weird stuff out there but hey, so is life.
