This is either the greatest piece of Taylor Swift memorabilia that ever hit the market, or the biggest SCAM of all time. Someone saw one of Taylor's recent Eras Tour gigs, and then tried to sell the contact lenses they wore to the show . . . for $10,000. The lenses were billed as, quote, "contacts that have seen taylor swift eras tour."
It was up on Depop.com for a while but was taken down.

In a new spring-cleaning poll, 49% of adults admit that ignoring a mess and leaving it for someone else is something they do A LOT. That's how many said they do it "often" or "always."
Here are a few more spring-cleaning stats . . .
1. The top five spots we dread cleaning the most are: Floors . . . rugs . . . inside the refrigerator . . . our windows . . . and the dishwasher. Microwaves and closets just missed the top five.
2. Most of us admit we cut corners when we clean. 53% said they "always" or "often" do. Only 9% said never.
3. The rooms we spend the most time cleaning are the kitchen, bathrooms, and bedrooms.
4. The time we're most likely to do a deep clean ISN'T in spring. It's when we know guests are coming to visit.
5. When we do a deep clean, it doesn't last long. The average person said their home starts to feel dirty again in about 12 days.

In a new poll, 35% of adults say they're "too tired" to live a healthy lifestyle, and YOUNG PEOPLE are more zonked than older folks.
48% of 25- to 34-year-olds say they're too exhausted . . . compared to 23% of people 55 and older. And 40% of women are too tired, versus 29% of men.
38% of adults say they lack the motivation to be healthy. Other excuses include: Lack of time . . . lack of confidence . . . high gym fees . . . and food prices.
Experts would remind us that more exercise BOOSTS energy, as do healthier diets and better sleep.

June is considered wedding month and the top-trending proposal question in the past month is, "What KNEE do you propose on?"
It's the type of thing women might know, but guys would have to google. So what's the answer? Traditionally, you're supposed to be on your LEFT KNEE.
It's not totally clear why, but maybe because you're better set up to present the ring to her LEFT hand.
You're also supposed to hold the box with your left hand, and open it with your right. Like it really matters?????
Here are a few more wedding season things we've been asking about . . .
1. The top-trending wedding gift we're googling is "Dutch oven".
2. The top wedding dress color we're oddly obsessed with this year is GREEN wedding dresses.
3. 49 of the 50 states are googling "bachelorette party" more than "bachelor party." Wyoming is the only outlier.
4. The top places we're looking to elope in are Maui and Ireland.
5. The top wedding vows we're googling are "CRUDE wedding vows." So you might be at some R-rated weddings this year. "Traditional Christian vows" and "STAR WARS vows" also made the top five.
6. The top question about "getting married" is, "How long do you have to change your name?" The answer is, there's no real deadline for that.

We talked about Zander White and his wife wanted to see Taylor Swift, but tickets were too expensive and too hard to get.
But they had a unique bargaining chip. They own a New Orleans pizza joint called Zee's Pizzeria, and they offered free pizza for a YEAR in exchange for tickets.
Well, a local woman named Jeannine Davidson saw their offer on Facebook. It turned out she was going to Taylor's Houston show with a friend, and they had two extra tickets. So they made it happen.
As for the free pizza, Jeannine says, quote, "I get it for a full year. I'm going to try and go as often as I can. I'm trying to stay healthy, that's always the challenge, but it is great pizza."

Heinz wants you to collect their sauce packets this summer, and if you do, you could be eligible for prizes.
If you haven't noticed, they've been releasing special sauce packets, which will be available through August. They each have one of the 50 states on them . . . and depict a food that state is known for.
The idea is to collect as many states as you can . . . and then upload photos of each at Saucemerica.com as you go.
The more states you have, the more entries you get. There are smaller prizes worth $3.00 to $250.00 . . . and grand prizes ranging from $500 to $100,000. At the very least, the first 600,000 participants will automatically get a $1.00 off coupon . . . good for any Heinz condiment at the store.
And don't worry, you don't have to GO to every state to fill up your collection.
Heinz is randomly shipping a variety of state packets to restaurants, movie theaters, stadiums, and to-go places. And they're available for all their sauces . . . including ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, ranch, BBQ, and tartar sauce.
