What is something really stupid you purchased that turned out far better than expected?
I bought a piece of 1.5 inch stiff foam to try to fix a sag in a bed. It didn't work but having that thick piece of solid foam around has been a life saver.
Need something flat to put a laptop on? Throw it on the foam. Going to be doing something that requires you to be on your knees for a while? Get the foam!
It went from stupid purchase to something I'd gladly replace if it broke.

Pizza bag. A really good one
Didn't think it would be a big deal but it's a game changer for takeout pizza. Hell, it's usually warmer than deliveries since I don't make any other stops
Massive difference even for a place 8 minutes away, and gets me warm great pizza for the places 20 or so away
Nice! Do you have a link or model?
Sure
First off, there's plenty, but AVOID this type at all costs

It's thin and sucks. Look at the sides, and the flap. Thin thin. It's the type of bag DoorDash has and there's a reason pizza shops have way better ones. I have one like it (out of my 2 bags). It's not worth it considering you'll probably have it for years. Don't save $10 just to be disappointed
Something like this, you can see the difference. Much thicker

I believe this is the one I have, which is like the thicker second link, but it doesn't seem to be available as a single bag purchase

Thanks very much for the detailed write up, I really appreciate it!
This model & the model family isn't as one-click convenient, but the price is comparable & it's American made. If you care about that. 🇺🇲 Cambro!
I love this pizza bag idea, and I think it would also make a wonderful Christmas gift. 🙂
Oh another great option! More to think about. Cheers!
Know what I use? A blanket! Works extremely well.
Well, if you have seat warmers, that could be ok
That's not at all required. Just wrap the box in the blanket and it'll still be really hot when you get home. The blanket just needs to be both above and below the box.
Yes but what about the sides?
You wrap the whole box in a blanket, sides and all. It's not hard. I told the blanket in 4, then put the box on one half of it, then just flip the other half over the box. The sides get covered, too. It keeps the pizza super hot.
Just messing around. You said it needed to be above and below. I believe you that blanket pizza is a good thing
