    Episode 41: The Best (and Worst) Things We Bought This Year

    We bought many, many things in the past 12 months, and we share the highs and lows. Which sunscreen keeps Sara's skin looking fresh and dewy? Which kitchen appliance delighted Ricky? Plus, we share our latest finds, and bond over the Roman Empire. But the real question is: How many times do YOU think of Dakota Johnson's AD house tour? Happy shopping!

    The Consumerists is back for Season 6 of your favourite podcast about shopping. It's been a year of intense market research, and Sara and Ricky are here to report on their findings. Fall is in the air, and that means a new year (according to Sara's calendar) of oversharing about overspending. We're in the market for key items in our wardrobe, iconic decor, fragrance, and beauty, so listen along and try to keep up! It feels great to be back.

    Episode 39: Think Less, Spend More

    Sara and Ricky develop several new mantras for fall, such as our new favourite: "Think Less, Spend More." It's a creed we already live by! Sara is now spending money at a rate that Ricky has never witnessed before. Ricky splurges on some Scandinavian design. And Sara and Ricky discuss important topics such as closet maintenance, IKEA candles, the perfect leather jacket, and finding a fragrance that makes people run from you and to you in equal measure. Happy shopping!
