"I saw this post and I ran right to spencers.com and got one. I haven’t had great luck in the past with buying lamps from Spencers, and I’m hoping mine won’t be cloudy! Spencers will not let you return a cloudy lamp."

Why I won't be buying any more lamps from Spencer's. Disclaimer: I'm not actually a Karen

I know what you're gonna say. I should have known better. I did know better. Any Lava brand lamp made post-2003 is dicey at best. Well, I'm happy to report that I've actually had pretty good luck with purchasing new 17" lamps.

Edit: I barfed

Years from now I'm going to be talking to other women about The Best Day of Our Life like "Yeah the day my son was born was cool but that day I got all my Safaris was LIT"
