Very often, the most recent product is a remedy in search of a world problem that never really existed. You probably wouldn't believe the chunk of utter nonsense at amount one on our ranking of the most completely pointless product of all time (we just can't even believe it).
We would not want to discourage you from looking for decent items–they’re not all scams.

You've probably read a few stories on the internet about some of the most excellent products; however, today, we've got something a little different for you by providing a list of the most worthless things ever created.
