This happened because none of you bought their amazing products.

Yeah because everyone loves buying overpriced strange novelty items.

hah, skymall often came in handy if I happened to forget my reading material before a flight.

Don't blame me - I bought a pair oversized, windproof umbrellas through them years ago. My wife lost hers but I still have mine and it's held up extremely well smile

I have never bought anything from their catalog and God knows I have been on 100 of flights in the past 15 years.

Also, that catalog is a petri dish for all kind of germs and bacteria.

Actually the entire plane is.

When I fly I bring anti bacterial wipes and wipe down everything I will come into contact with on my seat and around it.
