Impulse buys. TikTok flops. Subscription traps. VRBO rentals. Sometimes our purchase turns out to be something we needed even more than we realized. And sometimes… well… not.
In this Rooted Warriors confessional, we unpack the emotional chaos behind the things we swore could “change everything.” From vibrating face masks and composting toilets to organic underwear and an unforgettable desert trip—nothing is safe, and everything is fair game.
This isn’t just about buyer’s remorse. It’s about the feelings behind the cart: hope, heartbreak, distraction, or just needing one thing to go right.
Sometimes those purchases became little lifelines that make venturing out in the first place all worth while.
Either way—you’re not alone. And we promise... you're definitely NOT your TikTok Shop cart.
