Modern conveniences and techno things you *don't* have...

[Charade]

We (always did since I can remember) had a garbage disposal. My wife (and her family) don't and haven't ever as far as I know.

We don't have a video camera or HD tv.

 

[beckmrk04]

we don't have a DVD player for the car, or a GPS.

 

[MidgeD79]

I've never had a garbage disposal, snowblower, food processor, and the only cell phone I have is a pay-as-you-go phone that is activated when we drive to WDW.

 

[MushyMushy]

Well, to copy from you all, no garbage disposal, gps for the car, dvd for the car, snow blower, HD tv (indeed, not even a flat screen), Blu ray, etc. I'm sure there are plenty of other things as well.

 

[beckmrk04]

Oh yeah- no bluray. No garbage disposal. No snow blower.

Indeed- we do not even have a flat tv, much less an HDTV.

 

[hildasmuriel]

Oooh loads - no waste disposal unit (as we call them here!), no dishwasher, no DVD players in the cars, no GPS (we use an old system called a MAP), Blu-Ray.....and we only have one TV.

 

[mpls_mm]

I have a regular TV, nothing special, no desire to upgrade. I also have smart phone, laptop, gps etc etc and all kinds of other goodies but have never and will NEVER own a hair dryer. I hate them. It takes so long and I have no patience.

 

[matthew&haleysmom]

No GPS here. I sure could have used on last night when I was lost!!

 

[momof1princess]

we have no garbage disposal, no dishwasher, no HD tv, no DVR, no blu-ray, no smartphone, no video game systems (aside from DD's nintendo DS) or GPS and we get along just fine. we do have a portable DVD player, 2 mp3 players and new dvd camcorder. heaven help me, DD (11) is hinting for a cell phone b/c her BFF got one for Christmas.

We don't have a blu ray or video camera (unless you count the one on my cell phone). We just got a HDTV flat screen tv for Christmas, replacing our 15 year old tv.

We do have a garbage disposal, dishwasher and portable DVD player for the car, which doubles for a DVD player for our other TV now that we have the HDTV with surround sound with a DVD player--but we just got that for Christmas.

We don't have a laptop computer at home though.

No trash compactor, hdtv, blu-ray, flat screen, giant screen size, electric can opener, bread machine, pressure cooker, frydaddy or jacuzzi tub.

No digital camera (!), no dvd for car (why in the world would you want one in the car?), actually we have a portable dvd player (because I had to have Ratatouille, but only watched it part way on dvd player), no blue ray (what is that?), no GPS (why in the world do you need one?, we still look things up on maps), no snow blower (we live in South Florida!), no laptop computer, no food processor (I copy by hand - correction - we do have some kind of small processor but I have never used it). What's a smart phone?

We still have an old video camera, vcr, only use cell phones for emergencies, have a cd player but never use it. We just bought an hd tv. It is amazing I am even on this computer.

From other posts:
trash compactor, bread machine, pressure cooker, iPod, frydaddy or jacuzzi tub, TiVo, satellite radio - nope none of these either.

When I go into a Best Buy it is like going into another world. I have no idea what anything is for.

 

[sorcerormickey]

No GPS, no iPod (really want iPod Touch, but no need for it), no video camera (no need), finally getting a flat panel TV this week.....

 

[LeCras]

I think we have pretty much everything (including 60" TV) - but we don't necessarily use everything...

We've gone especially silly on the gaming front: two PCs, two laptops, two Xbox 360s, 1 PS3, 1 Wii and some older consoles. We have six TVs in the house.

Family consists of myself and DH.

Lets see..no Blackberry, no HDTV, no video game systems at all, no GPS, no satellite radio, no DVD in my car. Heck I am lucky to get my CD player in the car to work on a good day.

 

[Obi-Wan Pinobi]

Lets see.. no GPS, no trash compactor, nothing that begins with a small i. Our vehicles don't have built in DVD players or Satellite radio either.

 

[luvmy3]

No garbage disposal (but I do really want one)
No HD TV, or Flat planel TV
No Blue Ray player
No Blackberry
No Itouch or Iphone, I just have your basic video Ipod

 

[excitedtraveler]

No video camera, no TiVo or DVR, no garbage disposal, no air conditioning in our home, no DVD players for the car (although I'm considering getting a portable one for the plane ride to Disney)

Let's see-DVD player in the car-3 kids and 10+hours one way to visit grandparents

GPS-I drive all over the area daily for my job, I NEED a GPS because maps only give so much detail.

We don't have a snowblower but we should-we live in MN though.

No dishwasher or garbage disposal
