McMaster-Carr have a solid search engine that helps you browse and find useful stuff.
Works great if you know you are looking for. Many times I have clue what the name of a particular thing is called or not sure what I am looking for but when a I see it, I will know it.
Sometimes nothing beats just flipping through pages.

Did any of y’all in the 90’s get a Things YouNever Knew Existed catalogue? I would spend hours looking through it.

Because Boomers.
Back in the day on ship I used to love getting these things ... could be any product just about

I got an office supply catalog in the mail and immediately threw it away the other day. I don’t even remember who it was from.

Uline mails me so much shite I don’t even see how they make money on the few things I buy

U-line
Tried multiple times to get Uline to stop sending that useless paper catalog, with no success.

My wife orders stuff from U-line 1-2x per year. That catalog is like porn for her.
MIL ordered one thing from a place called Hammacher Schlemmer and we still regularly get their catalog. Bunch of cheap Boomer shite similar to The Sharper Image and Skymall back in the day. I flip through for a laugh then give it to my toddler to tear up.

In the 60's the Sears catalogues and phone books were used to raise little kids up high enough to eat at the table. I think they make something called booster seats for that today. See they're priced from around $16.00-$50.00.
