Today we’re selling real Magformers, not some knock-off brand. Which means I get a much-needed day off from my usual sales-pitching.
Meh writer @skemmehs here kicking back with an ice-cold La Croix and enjoying my 1-day staycation. Usually I spend my workdays constructing elaborate explanations for why you should buy the knock-off to some better known brand because it’s “basically just as good” and “you don’t have to pay for the brand” but today we’re selling the real deal, so I can take a breather from my bullshitting.
If you don’t know, Magformers are basically the Lego of magnetic building … things. They ain’t cheap in general, but you won’t find them at a lower price than this.
Ugh, what am I doing? I’m supposed to be relaxing and here I am going through my usual motions of trying to “sell” something. I don’t need to do any of that — these things will sell themselves to parents in the know. I can do whatever the hell I want today.
Here’s a fun video I watched while lounging around in my PJs :
What do 80s frisbee tricks have to do with today’s product? Nothing! That’s the beauty of it. I don’t have to try to construct an elaborate connection between some interesting internet tidbit and the dumb thing we’re selling. Because the thing we’re selling isn’t dumb!
And, because these Magformers are the real deal, you don’t have to spend a bunch of time researching them. You don’t have to read reviews to determine if the plastic is cheaper, or try to figure out if they’re compatible with your kid’s existing Magformers. These are definitely compatible. So you too can enjoy a little free time today. Consider it your “Meh-product-research-free vacation day” and relax in the back yard with your own pamplemousse LaCroix.
Ahhh! That’s refreshing.
Wait … this isn’t LaCroix. It’s some generic store-brand crap. Oh well, it’s almost just as good.
