13. Animal Balloon

Cost: $2–$5* Manufacturer: Unknown Purchased via: The Internet This balloon epitomizes laziness in design; it seems the manufacturer simply grabbed a Sharpie and hastily sketched the intended design onto the balloon, hoping it would suffice. Instead of arriving as a charming bear-shaped balloon, it turned out to be something entirely different and quite disappointing.

While the design appeared amusing when spotted on Pinterest, it ultimately failed to deliver in reality. If we were the buyer—likely someone who intended to use these balloons for their child's birthday party—we would definitely be seeking a refund. The expectation of a fun and whimsical decoration was dashed by the poor execution of the product.
