I think the lady has serious mental health problems.What is the point of buying something you will not ever use. Good excuse to get out of the housework. lol

How right you are Janet. This sort of crazy, packrat behavior is more common than most of us know.

A few years back, I spent a weekend with my Kiwanis Club cleaning out the home of a senior couple. Took us a couple of hours just to make a path through the living room. They had been keeping all the junk mail, newspapers, clothing, canned food and drygoods that came into the house. Fortunately, they had mostly been getting rid of perishables as long as they were able to. With all the accumulated items, the could enter the house only through the kitchen. There was a narrow path from the kitchen to the stairs, leding to a bed and a barely usable bathroom. Eventually, the woman broke her hip and the local social worker asked our club to come in and shift the accumulation.

We easily filled a thirty cubic yard dumpster. While we tried to ensure that we were not throwing away valuables, we obviously didn't have time for more than a cursory evaluation.

I've since gotten a lot better about two things - throwing away things, and being much more discerning about what I allow to come into my house.
