This thread is not actually about a White Elephant. But it is about useless devices/technology etc you have bought and never use and continue to hoard in the back of the cupboard. Those revolutionary pie-makers, milk frothers, ice shavers, work-out machines advertised at 1am.

What do you own?

For me, it used to be those writing packs that come with decorated paper and envelopes. Then I discovered e-mail. I still have a heap of those writing packs in my room. Also, alarm clocks. For some reason I own about three. No idea why.

My mum has three different foot spas - never uses any of them. Sometimes throws them out, gives them away or sells them and then somehow she has a new one. I don't know anyone who actually uses those foot spas.
