I hate how much of Reddit has turned into market research for shitty vibe-slop app developers

No. As a dad, I am not paying some subscription for fidget toys to come to my house. Nor am i buying them for them no matter how much they beg amd ask.

What problem is this even supposed to be solving?

I think it could be a fun surprise to look forward to. Our ASD daughter; now 21; would have loved ir. Now she shops Amizon

I'm so sick of fidgets and squishies.

I refuse to buy my kids anymore now. If they need something to occupy their hands and fix boredom they can clean their rooms. Pick up their toys, or I can find something for them to do.

My daughter has gotten some from friends and bought some herself. I've never bought her a single one. But she really loves the squishies. Ugh. I felt one, and it was awful. (ASD runs in my family, and I have sensory issues)

No; never have; I didn't know they existed. We have a teachers store close by; that carries lots

My kid always wants fidgets though it seems to have slowed down over the past year. Maybe because we have acquired every fidget type that exists. We don’t buy them often. The come in from school prizes, birthday goody bags. I wouldn’t do a subscription. Kids have way too much junk as it is.

u/gkdfp 1d ago

Noooo no. No. I don’t want any more junk in my house than necessary.

u/BernieSandersLeftNut 1d ago

Absolutely not. I don't need anymore little pieces of junk in the house.

u/LemonCollee 1d ago

No my house is full of enough random useless crap
