A useful resource for rubber gloves and Vaseline.

Yesterday I posted about a stupid Internet bargain. Today I’m posting about a stupid website. I specifically refer you to NationalDealz.com — “redefining the meaning of deals” — an Amazon.com knockoff that’s a complete and utter failure and recipient of the Howdygram’s latest Einstein Award.

NationalDealz sent me a coupon yesterday for 10% off my first order plus free shipping, no sales tax and a huge hoo-hah promotion about how I can sign up and subscribe to all my favorite household products  — exactly like I already do with Amazon — at “outrageously lower prices.” Unfortunately, you can’t buy anything from their website because they don’t actually have any merchandise. I checked nearly every category and most contain nothing at all.

The only product on the Toys & Games page is a strange frog called Dangly Buddy. There’s also a sewing machine with no product description or price, which makes perfect sense because there’s no “add to cart” button that actually lets you to buy the stupid thing.
The website’s Household Products are limited to Playtex pink rubber gloves and Vaseline. Just between us, I can’t comprehend who the hell would request regularly-scheduled deliveries of pink rubber gloves and Vaseline except a gay proctologist.

NationalDealz.com is an embarrassing website with no redeeming qualities except for an average-looking logo. Unless you’re a gay proctologist, do yourself a favor and shop at Amazon.com. Thank you for reading this.
