I don't see a lot of poor folks buying a pink lawn mower, or camper. Maybe a bowling ball. But there have been pink bowling balls for decades.

This is a middle class scam. Apparently they sell "feel good-ness" to people with disposable income.

There must be better ways to do things. It's selling people things they don't need, when that money should be spent on services.

It's the ostrich plume of the new millennium.
