10. Chair for a Desk

Cost: $10 Created by: Nobody Acquired from: Amazon People giggled at the size of the desk chair that one Twitter user, Savannah, purchased online at Amazon.com, and this post received over a quarter of a million retweets. Additionally, the tweet has 500,000 favorites as of right now. Savannah estimated the cost of the clear desk chair at $10, but it turned out to be more appropriate for a baby than an adult.
