How many slippers do you tend to go through? And earbuds?

[Mizzkizz7]

I'm finding myself buying slippers and ear buds like every 3 to 4 months. My house slippers never last long and my earbuds for my smartphone always fail.

I don't wear slippers, and my ear buds last forever, because I don't use them that often.  But I go through coffee makers pretty fast.

I have the same slippers for years.   Since my feet get cold, I buy slippers with soles so they last a long time.  I rarely use earbuds so they also last me a long time.  I usually have to search for them since I don't use them frequently.

I have gone over 33 years without having to buy a new pair of slippers!  Yeah, I've never owned a pair.  Earbuds last fine accept when I wear them at work.  There they break so often that just stopped using them.

I've never had heavy use for slippers. My socks are usually enough, so I haven't gone through many. Earbuds, on the other hand, I have to replace every six months to a year.

I have had the same pair for 5 years.  I use a blue tooth that i replace every 2 or 3 years.

I probably get a new pair of slippers every 5 years or so.  I like getting the moccasin style ones.  They are so warm and toasty and never feel to tight and constricted no matter how thick my socks are. Ear buds are awful.  I get em' from the $1 store.  So if they break I don't feel so guilty about it.  Which is awesome.  Although this last pair I purchased doesn't have the soft gel on the plugs so they are hard and don't fit right.  I'll be looking closer at them the next time I pick a set up.

Once I break in a pair of slippers I hate to give them up.  I usually ask for them for Christmas every 2 to 3 years. 

As for ear buds, the last pair I bought was at christmas time and they are still going strong as I don't use them very often.

I don't use either

Wow, two very random & different items. I don't own slippers, I just walk around in socks. As for earbuds, they usually last a pretty long time - at least a year.

Rather than full-on fuzzy bunny slippers, I get those junky $5 canvas shoes at Walmart to wear around the house. Those are usually good for a couple years before they fall apart.

Ear buds go faster. The sound always cuts out in one ear of the default iphone buds before too long.

Had my slippers for years now but it is breaking apart and for earbuds same thing had it for years and still working
