it's going to be discontinued????

Does this ever happen to you? I feel like every time I find something really neat - It's hard to find. I didn't think I was THAT trendy!!!

I wanted to get a Print Gocco after I saw all the cool stuff it could do. But now, I see that you can only get them from Japanese suppliers and people in the US who resale are hiking the price up because the maker is supposedly going to discontinue the product.

ugh. I hate being behind the times.

Yep! That seems to happen with pants for me. I'll find a style of dress pant or jeans that looks great (hard to do lately) and bam that's it. It's more so with jeans...which helps explain why I only have 1 pair that I like and that fit.

Yes! I can pretty much guarantee if I find something I really like, it will soon be discontinued.

I hate when they do it with cosmetic type stuff. I'm so picky about anything that goes on my face that it takes me forever to find something I feel like sticking too.

Hahaha...this is just my luck.

Lipton has the little green tea packets you add to bottled water. Well, I just love the honey lemon...do you tink I can find it? NO! It is now all peach and other icky flavors. I actually ended up searching online for it and ordered a case of it because the grocery stores stopped selling it.

Happens to me too - I gave up trying to keep up with trends. I'm just not a trendy person I guess!!

Total agreement here. I do not understand why everybody wants to add flavors to tea -- it's so good just as it is!

I did recently find an excellent bottled tea called Gold Peak that has no lemon or anything -- just good, cold sugar-free iced tea. Trouble is, it only comes from CVS (as far as I can tell), and it's $1.69 a bottle.

I definitely wouldn't be considered trendy. I guess I thought I had good taste - but I just must be normal
